research Genetic Basis of Male Pattern Baldness
Male pattern baldness is largely genetic, linked to the androgen receptor gene, and may relate to certain health issues.
research TRICHOSCOPIC STUDY OF NON-SCARRING ALOPECIA OF THE SCALP
Trichoscopy is effective for diagnosing different types of non-scarring hair loss.
research The effect of finasteride, a 5 alpha-reductase inhibitor, on scalp skin testosterone and dihydrotestosterone concentrations in patients with male pattern baldness.
Finasteride reduces scalp DHT levels, potentially treating male pattern baldness.
research A modified Sobel filter-based automated numerical algorithm enables immediate trichoscopic assessment of hair diameter diversity in male and female pattern hair loss

A trial found that using finasteride, a hair growth drug, can be effectively measured by comparing before and after photos.
research The ‘bald’ phenotype (androgenetic alopecia) is caused by the high glycaemic, high cholesterol and low mineral ‘western diet’
Western diet may cause male pattern baldness; low glycemic diet with magnesium could help.
research Multicentric calcified trichilemmal cysts with alopecia universalis affecting siblings
Two sisters had rare, widespread cysts and complete hair loss, suggesting a genetic link.

research Medical treatment of the hairline and temple points
Minoxidil and finasteride help treat hair loss in men.
