Androgenetic Alopecia
The most common form of hair loss
OR Androgenetic Alopecia (or commonly, "baldness") is the most common form of hair loss in both men and women. It occurs gradually and has a clear genetic and hormonal basis. In men, it usually begins with a receding hairline and thinning on the crown of the head. In women, generalized thinning without complete loss is observed.
Causes of Androgenetic Alopecia
The condition is related to the hormone dihydrotestosterone (DHT), which affects the hair follicles, gradually leading to their shrinkage and, ultimately, to a cessation of hair production.
Risk factors:
- Heredity
- Hormonal changes
- Age
- Stress or inflammatory factors
