Miniaturizing of hair and balding – Balding Blog

My question is about miniaturization of hair.

Does everyone have some degree of miniaturization of their hair? Or if you are experiencing miniaturization of hair, you have male pattern baldness?

Can you experience miniaturization even if you don’t “suffer” from mpb?

Lets say one is examined by a doctor who specializes in hair loss and he tells you that you have _10% miniaturization, do one “suffer” from male pattern baldness with that said?

(I apologize about my spelling and grammar, english is not my native language)

Everyone has some degree of miniaturization of hairs. It is just a normal part of the hair cycle as hairs transition from anagen to catagen to telogen phase. Not all hairs are miniaturized but some (at the end of their “life cycle”) will miniaturize and fall out. Men who carry the genes for Male Pattern Balding (MPB) or Androgenic Alopecia (AGA) will have more miniaturization.

  1. This is an interesting topik.
    I went to have my scalp checked and there was a about 10% miniatirization. Do i have mpb? I’m 30y/o

  2. There are many ways to deal with hair loss beyond “Hair Transplant Los Angeles”. When did the blog comment section become vehicles for gratuitous advertisements?

  3. Male pattern baldness is a combination of heredity and the male hormone i.e androgen. well if their are >10% miniatirization then it is not good, it does not mean it is mbp.

  4. the miniatirization >10% is not good, it does not mean that you have mbp. It means that at some stage you are getting bald
