OK, the question kindof speaks for itself. My dad, while he was still with us, was bald completely on the top of his head. Im only 15 now, but already my hairline is receding drastically. I was wondering if there was anything I could do to stop it?

There are two medical options open to you: Regaine (or Rogaine in the US) and Finasteride. Regaine gets the blood flowing back to the follicles so that hair starts to regrow and finasteride reduces the amount of dihydrotestosterone in the follicles that causes them to stop growing hair.
You can also use sprays and shampoos that make the hair look thicker, if you want. And you can try saw palmetto which also acts on dihydrotestosterone, although this is a herbal supplement and might cost a lot of money.
You could also try a hair transplant but that way you would have to grow your hair longer as the procedure leaves nasty scars.

Indian head massage can help but generally no u cant do anything about it. If you go bald then save it all off - it looks 100 times better that way!

I dont think so. The only thing that really works is hair transplant, but you are too young to try it.

no its hereditary, you get it from the mothers side of the family believe it or not and nothing you can do to treat it, you can try rogain for men maybe that would help...
