Hi,
Im 14 years old and concerned on whether I'm losing hair or not. Male pattern baldness is pretty common in my mother’s side of the family. Can anybody let me know if I’m balding or not? Thanks.

Yes, start drinking green tea or you'll be slick bald at 16.
green tea increased Dht in a study on mice. Im not certain it would have the same effect on humans but I avoid it just in case

"Mice treated with black tea tended to have a greater serum testosterone concentration (34.4%, P = 0.50) and had a 72% lower DHT concentration than controls (P < 0.05), suggesting that black tea may contain components that inhibit the activity of 5α-reductase, an enzyme that converts testosterone to the more bioactive DHT. Green tea tended to increase serum testosterone and DHT levels by 73.8% (P = 0.14) and 194% (P = 0.076), respectively. The combination of SPC and green tea reduced serum levels of DHT (P < 0.05)."

I like drinking green tea, so I should switch to black?

I can't conclusively say if it makes much difference but yes If you want to be careful
