Androgenetic Alopecia
What is Androgenetic Alopecia ?
Androgenetic alopecia, also known as male or female pattern baldness, is a common condition that causes hair loss. It is a genetic condition that is caused by the interaction of hormones, genetics, and age. Androgenetic alopecia typically affects the scalp and is characterized by a receding hairline and thinning of the hair on the crown of the head in men, and thinning of the hair on the top of the head in women.
Androgenetic alopecia is a progressive condition, which means that it tends to get worse over time. It is not typically reversible, but it can be managed with treatments such as medications, hair restoration surgery, and certain lifestyle changes.
Treatment for androgenetic alopecia will depend on the severity of the hair loss and the individual's goals for treatment. In some cases, a combination of treatments may be necessary to achieve the best results. It is important to speak with a dermatologist or other medical professional to determine the most appropriate treatment options.
