Androgenetic alopecia is a condition causing noticeable hair loss, especially in middle age, which is more severe than normal balding.

Androgens affect hair growth and shedding, with genetic and non-genetic factors influencing baldness.

Early balding in men might be a male hormonal equivalent of polycystic ovaries syndrome in women.

Androgenetic alopecia, a genetic disorder affecting up to 50% of adults, is caused by an excessive response to androgens leading to hair follicle shrinkage. Treatments include FDA-approved drugs, other therapies like low-dose oral minoxidil, and hair transplantation.

Men who start balding at age 20 may have a higher chance of getting aggressive prostate cancer.

Surgical hair restoration involves moving hair from a non-balding area to a balding area, with the transplanted hair not subject to male pattern baldness. Medications can slow hair loss and regrow some hair, but successful treatment needs careful planning, skill, and ethical responsibility due to progressive hair loss and limited donor hair.

Melanoma risk tools need improvement, certain gene mutations cause skin diseases and could be treated by targeting those mutations, skin wrinkling may relate to lung aging due to genetic factors, and oxidative stress affects hair loss but can be reduced in low oxygen.

Indian men have 62.1% hair loss, mostly grade II vertex, and less extensive than other populations.

Adiponectin reduces inflammation and bone loss in joint replacements.

Hair loss is mainly caused by a testosterone byproduct, and hair restoration surgery uses hair from the back and sides of the scalp.

Melanoma risk tools need improvement, a gene mutation causes a hair disorder that might be treated by managing cell stress, a potential therapy for a skin-ear disorder involves blocking cell channels, skin wrinkling may indicate lung aging regardless of smoking, and oxidative stress might contribute to common baldness.

Women with low SHBG levels and a high 3a-diol G to SHBG ratio are likely to experience female pattern baldness, possibly due to a slight excess of androgens affecting sensitive hair bulbs.

Minoxidil promotes hair growth but exact mechanism is unknown.

Astringent persimmon fruit extract may help hair grow longer and cover more area without increasing the number of hair follicles.

Astringent persimmon fruit extract may help increase hair length and coverage without increasing the number of hair follicles.

Some children may develop hair loss after having COVID-19.

The document concludes that alopecia has significant social and psychological effects, leading to a market for hair loss treatments.

Early attempts at using cloned cells for hair transplants failed, but 3D cell growth showed some promise.

The document suggests more research is needed to understand the link between baldness and prostate cancer.

Certain Egyptian Sabal fruit extracts may help treat anti-androgenic diseases like benign prostatic hyperplasia.

Balding hair follicle cells are smaller, grow less well, and need more effort to culture than non-balding cells.

Hair from balding and non-balding areas regrows similarly on mice.

A patient with steroid sulfatase deficiency had a unique hair pattern and a brain malformation not previously linked to the condition.

A substance called DKK-1 increases in balding areas and causes hair cells to die when exposed to DHT.

The article explains the genetic causes and symptoms of various hair disorders and highlights the need for more research to find treatments.

Cat color patterns are determined early in development by gene expression and epidermal changes, with the Dickkopf 4 gene playing a crucial role.

5α reductase type 2 enzyme mutation and oxidative stress may increase androgenetic alopecia risk in Egyptians.

Androgens may cause hair loss by increasing TGF-beta1 from scalp cells, which inhibits hair cell growth.

Male hormones cause different growth in identical human hair follicles due to their unique epigenetic characteristics.

Found different proteins in balding and non-balding cells, giving insight into hair loss causes.
