    From your name I'm assuming you're a male 14 year old. I'm really sorry to hear that your male pattern baldness has started so early. And I'm afraid I can't offer you much hope. But I would recommend you see a dermatologist for nothing more than to at least rule out anything else. You can try using minoxidil which helps grow hair. It is sold over the counter. In the US. I'm sorry but I'm assuming you live in the US and maybe that's wrong. In the US it is sold OTC I don't know how it's sold in other countries. And it works very well but the problem is it's not cheap and you have to keep using it or your hair will fall out again. Your dermatologist may have treatment recommendations that you could use too. I have alopecia areata which means my hair comes out in clumps leaving bare patches. When I get a patch I go in she gives me injections into my scalp and my hair grows back. That's why I want you to go to the dermatologist. Maybe this isn't male pattern baldness and maybe it is treatable. I wish you luck my friend.
