Certain genes may influence hair loss differently in men and women.
research Androgenetic Alopecia in Men: An Update On Genetics
Androgenetic alopecia in men is genetic and linked to health issues like obesity and heart disease, with treatments including minoxidil, finasteride, and hair transplants.
research Recent Advances in Understanding of the Etiopathogenesis, Diagnosis, and Management of Hair Loss Diseases
New understanding and treatments for hair loss are improving, but more research is needed.
research Genetic and molecular aspects of androgenetic alopecia
Androgenetic alopecia is mainly caused by genetic factors and increased androgen activity, leading to hair follicle miniaturization.

Certain plasma proteins are linked to prostate cancer risk and could help in early detection and treatment.
research Selected variants of the melanocortin 4 receptor gene (MC4R) do not confer susceptibility to female pattern hair loss
MC4R gene variants not linked to female hair loss.
research Clinical Snippets
New treatments for hair growth and psoriasis may be possible, and gene differences could affect baldness and the severity of skin conditions.
research Genetic Variants at 20p11 Confer Risk to Androgenetic Alopecia in the Chinese Han Population
Genetic variants at 20p11 increase baldness risk in Chinese Han people.
research Factors associated with early-onset androgenetic alopecia: A scoping review
Early-onset baldness is linked to genetics, lifestyle, and can indicate higher risk for heart and metabolic diseases, and affects mental health.
research An Uncontrolled Case Series Using a Botanically Derived, β-Cyclodextrin Inclusion Complex in Two Androgenetic Alopecia-Affected Male Subjects
Herbal formula shows promise for hair loss treatment.
research Evidence for a polygenic contribution to androgenetic alopecia

research New-Generation Therapies for the Treatment of Hair Loss in Men
New treatments for male hair loss show promise but need more research for safety and effectiveness.
research Androgenetic Alopecia in Gender Minority Patients
AGA treatments like minoxidil and LLLLT are safe and effective for gender minority patients.
research BJD Snippet
Researchers found certain genes are overactive and others are underactive in men with early balding, which could help create new treatments.
research Editor's Choice
Organ transplant recipients have a higher risk of skin cancer over time, atopic dermatitis skin shows unusual bacterial and fungal patterns, a new tool for measuring hidradenitis suppurativa severity was created, and gene expression changes in male baldness suggest new treatments.
research Hormonal regulation in male androgenetic alopecia—Sex hormones and beyond: Evidence from recent genetic studies
Hormones and genes affect hair growth and male baldness.
research Alopecia and the metabolic syndrome
Men with common hair loss may have a higher risk of heart disease and diabetes, and should be checked for these conditions.
research Androgenic Alopecia Is Associated with Less Dietary Soy, Higher Blood Vanadium and rs1160312 1 Polymorphism in Taiwanese Communities
Men with more vanadium in their blood and who drink less soy milk are more likely to have hair loss.
research Ectodysplasin-A2 induces dickkopf 1 expression in human balding dermal papilla cells overexpressing the ectodysplasin A2 receptor
A protein called ectodysplasin-A2 increases a hair growth inhibitor in balding cells, which could be a target for hair loss treatment.
research Disorders of the Scalp and Hair
Different scalp and hair disorders are more common in certain ethnic groups, with the most common being androgenetic alopecia, which is treated with medications like minoxidil and finasteride.
research A Pharmacogenetic Survey of Androgen Receptor (CAG)N and (GGN)N Polymorphisms in Patients Experiencing Long Term Side Effects after Finasteride Discontinuation
