Sex Hormones and Hair Loss in Men From the General Population of Northeastern Germany

[looking2grow96]

>Although higher testosterone concentrations are suggested to increase dihydrotestosterone concentrations converted by 5α- reductase and, thus, to stimulate androgen actions on the dermal papillae cells of hair follicles, the present study observed no link between serum androgen concentrations and male hair loss. This result confirmed previous research, suggesting that androgenetic alopecia might be attributed to increased androgen sensitivity or androgen receptor density, respectively, rather than to serum androgen concentrations themselves.

This cohort study of German men investigates cross-sectional associations between a panel of liquid chromatography mass–spectrometry-measured sex hormones and hair loss.

"...attributed to increased androgen sensitivity or androgen receptor density..."

Reminds me of the PFS androgen receptor theory.
