Age Related Thinning
As men age and start getting older, even if they don’t have the genes for MPB, can their hair still naturally start to become finer and/ or thinner in some areas (hairline, crown, etc) or possibly all over the whole scalp without it being related to male genetic balding in any way?
Dr. Robert Bernstein and I described a condition we called “Age Related Thinning,” which means that as one age, the hair shafts become finer and lose their bulk. This can happen at any age, but it is very common in men and women over 50. Some young men report such changes sometime in their late teens.
