male pattern baldness at young age, treatment options?

[redoctober]

Right now, I'm Norwood 1ish, and getting worse. This may not seem bad at first, but the problem is, I'm 14 (almost 15). I'm losing hair fairly rapidly right now, and do not want to be able to fry omelettes on my head in summertime by the time I'm in college. So, would something like Rogaine be OK for me given my age?

Get an appointment with a dermatologist and have the discussion. No one on this board is qualifed to tell someone of your age to begin any medicine, period.
