What is Male Pattern Baldness?
Male pattern baldness, medically known as androgenic alopecia, frequently results in hair loss for many men. It typically starts with thinning at the crown and receding hairline, progressing to bald patches or a horseshoe formation around the head.
Male pattern baldness is largely driven by genetics, but age and hormones also play a part.
Signs of Male Pattern Baldness
Possible signs of male pattern baldness can be:
- Thinning on the crown
- Receding hairline
- Bald areas on the scalp
- Slow hair loss
- Visible scalp areas
- Reduced hair volume
