Re: Male Pattern Hairloss in Teen

 DHT. It is the enemy of anyone wanting to keep their hair (not go bald). It is associated with male pattern baldness.

di hydro testosterone (dihydrotestosterone)
Abbr. DHT
An androgen derived from testosterone.

While DHT is best known for its roles in causing male pattern hair loss and prostate problems, it is crucial to virilization and is necessary to mitigate estrogen's effects in men.

DHT is an important contributor to other characteristics generally attributed to males, including facial and body hair growth, and deepening of the voice. DHT may also play a crucial role in both sex drive and the growth of muscle tissue.

Nothing that you should have to worry about MamacatPatch.

Women can develop male pattern baldness as well, but it is rare. The most common cause of hair loss in women is hypothyroidism.
