Abstract
The subject we deal with here is male baldness, often still termed androgenic or androgenetic baldness. Very important research studies have shown that practically 98% of men who are losing or who have lost their hair have at some time or other taken steps to try to arrest this process. In other words, only those who are not affected by baldness are indifferent to it. And it is surprising how many preventive consultations are sought by people whose hair is normal, but who are simply afraid that the day may come when they will lose it.
