pattern baldness
Genetic scalp exposure
Pattern baldness is hair loss that follows a predictable progression, typically starting at the temples or crown and gradually expanding.
The most common form, male pattern baldness, creates an M-shaped hairline or a bald spot on top.
Female pattern baldness usually involves overall thinning rather than distinct bald patches.
The condition is largely hereditary: Pattern baldness runs in his family.
