Abstract in brief

  • The study found that young men with androgenic alopecia (AGA) had higher levels of free testosterone (FT) and dihydrotestosterone (DHT) before treatment, suggesting a link between these hormones and hair loss.
  • After finasteride treatment, DHT levels decreased significantly, and patients with lower reductions in FT and DHT showed better hair regrowth, indicating these hormone levels can predict treatment success.
  • The research supports the idea that the hypothalamus-pituitary-sexual gland axis is involved in AGA development and that monitoring androgen levels can help optimize antiandrogen therapy outcomes.]
