This study found that in Korean patients, cardiovascular disease-related risk was significantly associated with male sex, moderate to severe androgenetic alopecia, and particularly FV-type alopecia.

This study found that early-onset androgenetic alopecia is associated with higher prevalence of metabolic syndrome, atheroma plaques, and urinary symptoms related to prostate growth compared to controls.
