Hair fall in the head crown area.
Every doctor I had meet is just giving minoxidil as a solution but I don't know that they are specialist of that thing and they are giving solution like minoxodil that means they don't know the treatment of hair fall they just came to know about the one medicine known as minoxidil and all those doctor charging money for that kind of consultancy . I believe that if he or she is a specialist of something than they should give some good kind of treatment with all the medicine which can be dropped after the treatment with the hair So if you think that you have that solid solution to hair treatment please reply.

Male Pattern Baldness (Androgenetic Alopecia):

Symptoms:
1. Receding hairline
2. Thinning at the crown
3. Gradual hair loss, leading to baldness
Causes:
1. Genetic factors
2. Hormonal changes, specifically the influence of DHT
3. Age-related factors
Preventive Measures:
1. Early intervention with medications
2. Regular check-ups with a healthcare professional
Considerations:
Consult with a dermatologist or healthcare professional to determine the most suitable treatment based on individual health and factors contributing to hair loss.
It's important to note that not all individuals experience the same progression of male pattern baldness, and treatment effectiveness can vary. Early intervention often yields better results.
