research Androgenic Alopecia: Cross-Talk Between Cell Signal Transduction Pathways
Hair loss in Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is due to altered cell sensitivity to hormones, not increased hormone levels. Hair growth periods shorten over time, causing hair to become thinner and shorter. This is linked to miscommunication between cell pathways in hair follicles. There's also a change in gene expression related to blood vessels and cell growth in balding hair follicles. The exact molecular causes of AGA are still unclear.

Balding in men might indicate a higher risk of metabolic health issues.

The gene LRRC15 is more active in balding areas of the scalp compared to non-balding areas.
research Willingness to Pay for Hair Restoration Among Balding Men
Balding men value hair restoration highly, willing to pay over $5,000 for a slight improvement.
