Male pattern balding, sometimes called androgenic alopecia, is a common reason men lose hair. Women can also experience hair loss like this, though it occurs less frequently – about 50 million men suffer from male pattern balding while about 30 million women suffer from female pattern balding. These tend to occur because of changes in the hormones in the body. Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) is one of those concerns. How can it impact hair loss for you?
