Are you experiencing hair loss and looking for treatment options?
Male hair loss, also known as androgenetic alopecia, is the most common type of hair loss in men. It's characterized by a receding hairline and thinning hair on the crown of the head.
What causes male hair loss?
Male hair loss is primarily caused by genetics and the effects of dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a hormone derived from testosterone. DHT can shrink hair follicles, leading to shorter and thinner hair growth.
How is male hair loss treated?
Treatment options include medications like finasteride and minoxidil, as well as hair transplant surgery.
