Common Signs

A receding hairline, often starting at the templesThinning or balding at the crownGradual miniaturisation of hairs — finer, shorter regrowth over timeA pattern that develops slowly over months to years

Possible Causes

A genetic sensitivity to DHT (a by-product of testosterone), which shortens the hair growth cycleFamily history — pattern loss tends to run in families on either sideAge — the likelihood and extent typically increases over time
