Just for clarification male pattern hair loss is due to hair follicle sensitivity to DHT or dihydrotestosterone. It can happen wirh low of high testosterone. Its also why DHT blockers like finasteride and dutasteride are treatments and not testosterone replacement therapy. There is some evidence that TRT in men with low T and transgender women transitioning to men actually accelerates hair loss.
