Androgenetic Alopecia (Pattern Hair Loss)

Pattern hair loss is gradual thinning: a receding hairline or crown thinning in men, and widening parting or reduced density in women. Many patients also have temporary shedding from fever, stress, low iron or thyroid issues, so the type of hair fall must be sorted out first.

Symptoms & signs

Pattern hair loss often presents as:

  • Gradual thinning over months or years
  • Receding hairline or crown thinning in men
  • Widening parting or reduced ponytail thickness in women
  • Family history of similar hair loss

What Dr. Maharania checks

  • Pattern of thinning and whether shedding is active.
  • Scalp disease, dandruff, recent fever, weight change, medicines and nutrition history.
  • Whether blood tests such as thyroid, ferritin or vitamin levels are useful.

Treatment approach

Treatment is usually long-term and aims to slow thinning, improve density where possible and protect existing hair. Medicines need consistency and review; stopping early is a common reason for losing progress. The clinic treats with medicines only — PRP and injection procedures are not offered here.

What to expect

1

Identify the hair-loss type

Pattern loss, telogen shedding and scalp inflammation are separated as far as possible.

2

Check useful causes

Tests are ordered only when history or examination suggests they may change treatment.

3

Start a sustainable plan

Topical or oral medicines are explained with expected timelines and side effects.

4

Review over months

Hair treatment is judged over months, not days; regular follow-up helps compare progress.

Frequently asked questions

Can lost hair come back?
Miniaturised hair may improve, but completely lost follicles usually do not. Early treatment protects more hair.
Do I need blood tests?
Not everyone. Tests are useful when there is sudden shedding, fatigue, menstrual issues, diet concerns or other clues.
Do you offer PRP or injections?
No. Treatment at the clinic is with examination and medicines only — PRP and injection procedures are not offered.
Can WhatsApp help before I visit?
WhatsApp can help with follow-up and appointments, but first evaluation is better in person when the diagnosis is unclear or shedding is heavy.
