Hair Loss for Men & Women

Hair loss is a common condition that affects both men and women, but the pattern and underlying causes may differ between genders. In men, hair loss is typically characterised by a receding hairline or thinning at the crown of the head and is often caused by genetics and the hormone dihydrotestosterone (DHT). Male pattern baldness is a hereditary condition that affects up to two-thirds of men by age 35 and is often irreversible. In women, hair loss is more commonly diffuse, with a general thinning of the hair throughout the scalp rather than a specific pattern. Female hair loss can be caused by a variety of factors, including hormonal changes, medications, medical conditions, and styling practices. Women may also experience temporary hair loss after pregnancy or during menopause. Treatment options for hair loss may include medications or non-surgical interventions such as PRP treatment.
