research Analysis of 72,469 UK Biobank exomes links rare variants to male-pattern hair loss
Rare genetic variants in five specific genes are linked to male-pattern hair loss but only account for a small part of the risk.

5 / 1000+ resultscommunity Hair loss and ethnicity - Caucasian men the most likely to experience hair loss
The conversation discusses how Caucasian men are more likely to experience hair loss due to genetic predisposition, with factors like the androgen receptor on the X chromosome playing a significant role. The user also expresses confusion about the evolutionary reasons for hair loss, especially in colder climates where it would seem beneficial to retain hair for warmth.
community Still not sure why men think diet has nothing to do with hair loss when scientific is quite the opposite [Link]
Diet can influence hair health, but male pattern baldness (MPB) is primarily genetic. Treatments discussed include Minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841.
community Is Fagron TrichoTest (first genetic test for hair loss) a SCAM?
User ronopibf discusses Fagron TrichoTest, a genetic test for hair loss, and seeks opinions on its effectiveness. Some users support the service, while others call it a scam, with prices ranging from $200-$500.
community A hill on which I will die: The DHT itch absolutely exists
The DHT itch is linked to hair loss and persists despite finasteride use; switching to dutasteride helped alleviate the itch and promoted regrowth. Some users suggest seborrheic dermatitis as a cause and recommend treatments like medicated shampoos, vitamin D, and minoxidil.
community Andrew Schulz stated he had been using a ‘’hair pill’’ for 15 years and it may have caused him infertility
The conversation discusses the potential link between hair loss treatment pills, specifically finasteride, and infertility. Users share their experiences and opinions, with some suggesting that finasteride can temporarily lower sperm count, while others argue that other factors like age and lifestyle could also contribute to infertility.
