    hair loss caused by treatments that alter hormone levels

    Endocrine Therapy-Induced Alopecia, also known as Hormone Therapy-Induced Alopecia, refers to hair loss that occurs as a side effect of treatments that alter hormone levels, commonly used in managing cancers like breast or prostate cancer. These therapies, such as tamoxifen or aromatase inhibitors, disrupt the normal hormonal balance, leading to thinning hair or baldness.
