GlossaryAndrogen Levels

refer to hormone concentrations influencing male traits and hair growth

Androgen levels refer to the concentration of androgens, which are a group of hormones that play a key role in male traits and reproductive activity. These hormones, including testosterone, are present in both men and women but are typically higher in men. Abnormal androgen levels can affect hair growth, leading to conditions like androgenetic alopecia (pattern baldness) or hirsutism (excessive hair growth).
