Male Sex Alopecia

Posted: Wednesday, September 29, 2010 6:56:54 AM
Male-sex alopecia, or male-pattern baldness, is a type of hair loss which frequently occurs with young men. The principal manifestation of this disease is that the hairline across the front recedes gradually and there is also hair loss on the crown of the head. Generally speaking, hair starts to fall off, though unnoticeably to him, when the young man is about 20 years old. The front of hair over the forehead changes gradually into the form of a peak, which grows narrower and narrower. This harms the young man's image and causes him a lot of worry. Some people say that this male-sex alopecia is due to heredity. This explanation is implausible, because a bald father may have several sons and grandsons none of whom have this defect.
