Baldness is a Pattern hair loss.I'm going bald.I'm not cool about it
I know that there are treatments for hair loss such as minoxidil, finasteride, or hair transplant surgeries.
Do you mean I can still regain back my lost hair? That's quite reassuring
I'm not sure if you are male or female, but females don't react well to finasteride and it may result in birth defects if taken during pregnancy.
OK,that's simply interesting! So how is the surgical aspect of regaining bald hair done?
It removes hair follicles from one part of the body to a balding or bald part of the body.
OK ,so why do people become bald? Is it hereditary or ????
Pattern hair loss
Pattern hair loss is hair loss that primarily affects the top and front of the scalp. In male-pattern hair loss (MPHL), the hair loss often presents itself as a receding hairline, while in female-pattern hair loss (FPHL), it typically presents as a thinning of the hair.
Male pattern hair loss is believed to be due to a combination of genetics and the male hormone dihydrotestosterone. The cause in female pattern hair loss remains unclear.
Management may include simply accepting

Treatments for the various forms of hair loss have limited success. Three medications have evidence to support their use in male pattern hair loss: minoxidil, finasteride, and dutasteride. They typically work better to prevent further hair loss, than to regrow lost hair.
- Minoxidil (Rogaine) is a nonprescription medication approved for male pattern baldness and alopecia areata. In a liquid or foam, it is rubbed into the scalp twice a day. Some people have an allergic reaction to the propylene glycol in the minoxidil solution
