Hair loss, or baldness, refers to a loss of hair from part of the head or body. Typically, the hair on the head is affected. Common types include male-pattern hair loss, female-pattern hair loss, Alopecia Areata, and a thinning of hair after a shock, known as Telogen Effluvium.
Male or Female Pattern Baldness/Hair Loss is by far the most common and affects a large number of people across the world.
According to the American Hair Loss Association:
Approximately 25 percent of men who have hereditary male pattern baldness start losing their hair before the age of 21
By the age of 35, approximately 66 percent of men will have experienced some degree of hair loss.
By the age of 50, approximately 85 percent of men will have significantly thinner hair.
Male Pattern Baldness is due to a combination of hormones (androgens) and a genetic predisposition
Male Pattern Hair Loss is also known as Androgenetic Alopecia and is characterized by a receding hairline and hair loss on the top and front of the head
Female Pattern Baldness results in thinning hair on the mid-frontal area of the scalp, and is usually less severe than in males
This inherited trait, pattern baldness, that tends to give mostly men, but also many women, a receding hairline and a thinning of the front hair, is caused by genetic sensitivity to a byproduct of testosterone called dihydrotestosterone (DHT).
