I think you are balding but that's just my opinion as someone who started balding at 12. Not that there is anything you could do about it at your age and it probably wont look too bad until you're 18. Get your blood checked anyway.

Thanyou. My doctos keeps saying its because of hot water and dandruff idk why

Excessive dandruff might be the reason your hair looks so thin but idk about that stuff. Your hairline looks like it's receding and maybe retrograde alopecia (lower sides and neck).

Is there a way to treat it?

Are any of your dad or grandfathers bald by chance? Then, there is a chance you're following their footsteps.

You need to get a blood work done. Progesterone/Testosterone/ Estradiol/DHT/Free Testosterone.
But general, what really matter is Progesterone/Estradiol/DHT
See, Progesterone is like the natural finasteride, and Estradiol and DHT are like the ying and yang, so if one . So , if, for example ,Your estrogen levels go up, you body will produce less progesterone and that will cause more DHT , that will not be a problem if you don't have the bald genes, but will be if you do . Anyway, in general ( I started to receding at 17th ) , the receding start around 17/18th , I am talking about male pattern baldness when you are a teen, but, you can already see the signs of it on the 14/15 years .

But for that photos, and without previous photos , of a year ago or so, is really hard to tell if you have early signs of male pattern baldness or not.

My hairline has always been like that but I’m not sure about those spots. I didn’t have them last month I’m sure.
