Androgenetic Alopecia
Androgenetic Alopecia
Lots of things can cause a woman’s hair to thin, and one is as simple as having a gene that makes you likely to develop female pattern hair loss. Though women are less likely than men to have inherited hair loss, it’s definitely not uncommon. Women’s androgenetic alopecia is the female equivalent of male pattern baldness, and it works the same way. Dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a derivative of the hormone testosterone, binds to hair follicles and prevents them from getting the nutrients they need. The difference is that diffuse thinning, which rarely happens in men, is a telling sign of genetic hair loss in women. This means that thinning can happen anywhere on the scalp or all over, and some women lose hair in a combination of patterns.

Causes of Female Hair Loss Beyond Genetics
While androgenetic alopecia is a major cause of female hair loss, other factors such as stress, illness, medication and lifestyle changes can also trigger hair thinning. Autoimmune diseases like alopecia areata or scalp infections may cause sudden hair loss.
Hormonal Imbalances and Hair Loss
Hormones play a significant role in women’s hair health. Fluctuations due to pregnancy, menopause or thyroid issues can result in temporary or long term hair thinning. Hormonal imbalances can be corrected with proper medical care, helping to stabilize hair growth.
Understanding DHT and Hair Follicle Sensitivity
The sensitivity of hair follicles to dihydrotestosterone (DHT) is a key factor in androgenetic alopecia. DHT causes hair follicles, shrinking them and reduce hair regrowth. Treatments like DHT blockers may help to prevent this condition.
