Diabetes and Diffuse Thinning? – Hair Loss Information – Balding Blog

hey doc,

just wondering, does diabetes have a role in hairloss? the worst person in my family was my grandfather who was a norwood 3 in his mid thirties and then lost it all. interestingly he had diabetes, and i noticed from pictures of him that he had diffuse thinning everywhere. when i looked it up on the internet it seems than diabetes causes diffuse thinning, is this true?
thanks
