Male and female pattern baldness, medically known as androgenetic alopecia, is the most common cause of hair loss in both men and women. While it is largely influenced by genetics and hormonal changes, the patterns and progression differ between the sexes. In men, hair loss typically begins with a receding hairline and thinning at the crown, often progressing to partial or complete baldness. In women, the hairline usually remains intact, but there is a noticeable widening of the part and overall thinning across the top of the scalp. This condition can begin as early as the late teens or early twenties in men, and often becomes more noticeable in women after menopause. Though it is a natural and common part of aging for many, androgenetic alopecia can significantly impact self-esteem and confidence. Fortunately, a range of treatment options—from topical and oral medications to hair restoration procedures—are available to help manage and restore hair loss.
Male Pattern Baldness
Male pattern baldness, also known as androgenic alopecia, is a common condition affecting millions of men. It's characterized by hair thinning and gradual hair loss in specific patterns, often starting as a receding hairline or a bald spot on the crown of the head. While it can begin as early as the late teens, it typically becomes more noticeable with age. The primary cause of male pattern baldness is genetics. A predisposition to this condition makes it more likely to occur in men with a family history of hair loss. A combination of genetic factors and male hormones, specifically dihydrotestosterone (DHT). DHT shrinks hair follicles over time, resulting in thinner, shorter hair until eventually, no hair grows at all. This typically manifests in a receding hairline or thinning crown. While male pattern baldness is often considered a normal part of aging, it can significantly impact self-esteem and confidence. Fortunately, various treatment options are available to slow down hair loss and promote regrowth, such as medications, hair transplants, and non-invasive therapies.

PATTERN bALDNESS
Female pattern baldness can be caused by aging, changes in the levels of androgens, heavy loss of blood during menstrual periods, certain medicines, such as estrogenic oral contraceptives, and a variety of other factors, including thyroid abnormalities, iron deficiencies, autoimmune diseases, and even childbirth. The most common reason people lose their hair is heredity, and contrary to common myth, the trait is not passed from your maternal grandparent nor does it skip a generation. The propensity is passed down from all your relatives. The more bald people in your family, the greater your chances are of going bald.
