    TLDR Male pattern hair loss is common, affects mental health, and can be treated with medication or hair transplants.
    Male pattern hair loss, or androgenetic alopecia, affects 30-50% of men aged 20-25 and older, significantly impacting their quality of life and mental health. It is linked to various health issues, including skin cancer, cardiovascular diseases, and is heavily influenced by genetics, with heredity contributing 80% to its development. Treatments like minoxidil and finasteride can prevent further hair loss but have limited success in reversing baldness and require continuous use, with potential side effects such as sexual dysfunction and skin irritation. Hair transplantation offers a more lasting solution, achieving desirable results in up to 98% of cases.
