Male Pattern Baldness, also known as androgenetic alopecia, is the most common form of hair loss. And it happens earlier than anyone expects. In fact, 2 out of 3 guys will experience some form of MPB by the time they’re 35.
Genetics are the most common cause of hair loss. But don’t blame Mom. You can inherit the baldness trait from either side of your family. A recent study found that there are actually 287 genetic regions that contribute to male pattern baldness.
External factors can also play a role. Using harsh chemical dyes and relaxers can exacerbate the situation, while stress or an unbalanced diet can also lead to additional hair loss.
