Androgenetic Alopecia Overview

Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is a progressive form of hair loss driven by genetic vulnerabilities, frequently linked to X-chromosome variants, where dihydrotestosterone (DHT) binds to follicle receptors. This hormonal trigger shortens the hair’s active growth phase, miniaturizing robust terminal hairs into fine, barely visible vellus ones. Clinical patterns diverge significantly by sex: men typically show frontotemporal and vertex thinning mapped by the Hamilton-Norwood scale, while women experience diffuse crown thinning with a preserved frontal hairline classified by the Ludwig scale. Beyond a visual exam, trichoscopy confirms the diagnosis by revealing varied hair diameters and peripilar signs. To halt this unyielding progression, oral 5-alpha reductase inhibitors like finasteride or the more potent dutasteride are deployed in men to block DHT, while minoxidil extends the growth phase across both sexes. Beyond classic surgical transplants (FUE) and PRP, the contemporary therapeutic pipeline centers on topical androgen blockers like clascoterone 5% and metabolic stem-cell triggers like PP405 to wake up dormant follicles. Crucially, because this is an androgen-dependent process rather than the autoimmune destruction characteristic of alopecia areata, immunosuppressive JAK inhibitors offer no clinical benefit here; early combination therapy remains the definitive strategy for long-term hair preservation.
