What is Androgenetic Alopecia?

Androgenetic Alopecia, commonly known as male or female pattern hair loss, is a common progressive condition characterized by gradual thinning of hair following a predictable pattern influenced by genetics and hormones. In men, it typically presents as a receding hairline and thinning at the crown, while women more often experience diffuse thinning over the top of the scalp with a preserved hairline. The condition results from hair follicles becoming increasingly sensitive to androgens, causing them to shrink and produce progressively finer, shorter hairs over time. It is the most common cause of hair loss in both sexes.
