Association of Androgenetic Alopecia and Metabolic Syndromes in Male Population

The study found that Androgenetic Alopecia (AGA) was common in 74% of male patients aged 30 years. The most common hair loss patterns were the M pattern (66% of patients) and V pattern (52% of patients). The study also found a correlation between different AGA patterns and metabolic syndromes. The U pattern was most common in patients with fasting blood sugar levels of 100 mg/dl or higher (85.71%), followed by the C pattern (83.33%), M pattern (69.70%), V pattern (69.23%), and F pattern (44.44%). Additionally, 100% of patients with the U pattern showed triglyceride values of 150 mg/dl or higher. The study concluded that AGA patients, especially those with the U pattern, are prone to developing insulin resistance.
