TL;DR - Male pattern balding (androgenetic alopecia, AA) is the progressive loss of hair along the temples and crown of the head. - Hair growth occurs in 4 phases with hair loss being seen when each hair spends less time in the growth phase.
- In AA, a form of testosterone causes sensitive hair follicles to spend less time in the growth phase. This causes the hair to thin and baldness to occur. #hair #malebaldness #bald #dermatology #hairloss #PennState #PennStateCOM #BiomedicalSciences
