Hairloss at the age of 17

Hello. Im writing this post because I'm out of ideas..... So as you can tell the subject is hairloss. My hairloss started when I was 15.I usually wear a cap everytime I'm outside My friends started to notice thinning at the crown of the head and I didn't really think of it much but when I sometimes have a cold hand on the crown part I started to feel my cold hand more than the other parts of the head. So I started to freak out a little bit and think this is it. Im going to be bald. A year after I started to experience a lot of hairloss. I found a lot of hair in my hand when I shampooed it and I told my mom immediately. None of my brothers, cousins, father or my mom's or dads fathers are bald. My bigger brother hasn't experienced any baldness at all. Ive done blood work and everything looks good. I've searched medical care to try to figure out why I'm losing so much hair. They blame it on genetic hairloss which is false. Sure maybe the hair has gone up but not at the level I am at the moment. The doctors really do not recommend Finasteride because of the bad side effects but they say that it's an option. Also Minoxidile but it's apparently 1/5 it works out and pretty obvious that the hair that has grown when it works out falls out if you stop using it. My barber really thinks it's hormone imbalance. That's what I also think but I'm not a doctor so I can't say what it really is. I can't do anything my hair like putting some hair gel in or even brush it. Then I can see that it's starting to thin even more.

Please help me. I'm just losing confidence every time I'm looking at it. I'm trying to hide it as much as possible with a hat so people don't laugh at me.
