Androgenetic alopecia as a cardiovascular risk factor

Abstract: Androgenetic alopecia is the most common cause of chronic hair loss. The first reports indicating the relationship between androgenetic alopecia and cardiovascular diseases were published in the 1970s. Epidemiological studies confirmed a more frequent occurrence of ischaemic heart disease, development of atherosclerosis and an increased risk of cardiovascular death in this group of patients.
