Am I thinning at the sides?

Do you have your hair pulled back normally like in a pony tail or something? It looks like you have long hair, so I'm wondering if you are wearing it pulled back and maybe it's some traction alopecia going on.

I don’t pull it back like that, no, so it shouldn’t be traction alopecia. Here are some more photos of my scalp though just to provide more detail.

Yes your hair started miniaturization. You should get basic investigation to rule out other causes of hair loss before labelling it as DHT induce miniaturization. For example Vitamin D 3 , Zinc, Iron, thyroid and investigations. If Lab reports are clear the next step would be fin & Min.
