What is Baldness?

Baldness refers to the partial or complete absence of hair on the scalp (or other body parts). It often stems from an acceleration of hair follicle ageing and shrinkage.

Causes for Baldness

Several internal and external factors contribute to baldness. Knowing these causes helps in choosing the most effective treatment.

Genetics / Hereditary Factors

Genetics / Hereditary Factors

A family history of hair loss often means hair follicles are more sensitive to DHT (dihydrotestosterone), which causes them to shr... Read More

Age-Related Changes

Age-Related Changes

With age, hair growth cycles slow and follicles may produce thinner hair or fewer hairs.

Hormonal Imbalances

Hormonal Imbalances

DHT plays a central role in male pattern baldness, and women may see hair thinning from hormonal changes (e.g. menopause, PCOS).

Medical Conditions & Nutritional Deficiencies

Medical Conditions & Nutritional Deficiencies

Issues like thyroid disorders, autoimmune conditions, scalp infections, or lack of nutrients (iron, protein, vitamins) can acceler... Read More

Lifestyle & Environmental Factors

Lifestyle & Environmental Factors

Chronic stress, poor diet, smoking, harsh hair care, pollution, and UV exposure can all damage follicles and worsen baldness risk.

Types of Baldness

Baldness can occur in different patterns and forms, each with unique causes, progression, and treatment requirements that need personalized evaluation.

Male Pattern Baldness (Androgenetic Alopecia)

Male Pattern Baldness (Androgenetic Alopecia)

Characterized by a receding hairline (often “M” or “U” shaped) and thinning at the crown. Progression usually follows a pattern influenced by genetics and hormone (especially DHT) sensitivity.

Female Pattern Baldness

Female Pattern Baldness

Presents as diffuse thinning across the scalp. The front hairline often stays intact. May happen in the 20s or 30s, often linked to hormonal changes, stress, or nutritional issues.

Early Symptoms of Male & Female Baldness

Early signs of Female and Male baldness symptoms are similar across types, though presentation can vary between men and women.

Receding hairline (in men)

Thinning crown area

Overall reduction in hair density

Increased shedding (in brushes, pillows, shower)

Visible scalp under light

Widening central part (more common in women)

Reduced hair volume; styles may feel less full

When to see a Doctor?

When home remedies or over-the-counter products fail to work for hair growth and you have bald patches, it’s time to consult a doctor

You notice increased hair shedding or thinning in specific areas.

Baldness runs in your family (genetic history).

You’re experiencing hormonal imbalances, especially related to thyroid, PCOS, or menopause.

You have chronic stress, poor sleep, or nutritional deficiencies.

If any of these apply, early consultation is vital to prevent further progression and choose the best baldness solution for your scalp condition.

Stages of Baldness

The stages of baldness describe the progression of hair loss, from early hairline recession to advanced scalp hair loss.

Stage 1

Stage 1

Slight hairline recession that’s barely visible — the earliest and mildest stage of hair thinning.

Stage 2

Stage 2

Recession becomes more noticeable at the temples, creating a subtle M- or V-shaped pattern.

Stage 3

Stage 3

Hairline recession deepens, often accompanied by the first signs of thinning or balding at the crown.

Stage 4

Stage 4

Visible frontal hairline recession and pronounced thinning on the top of the scalp.

Stage 5

Stage 5

The bald patches enlarge, and hair loss becomes more evident across the top region of the head.

Stage 6

Stage 6

Hair loss areas at the front and crown merge, leaving hair mostly on the sides and back.

Stage 7

Stage 7

The most advanced stage, marked by extensive thinning and minimal hair remaining on the top of the scalp.
