what's up everybody, so I was diagnosed with low test levels and I will be starting my trt next week , my question is if trt dose can cause any type of hair thinning or loss?
Yes, any type of testosterone can cause hair thinning if you're genetically susceptible. Whether it's totally natural or exogenous. As a matter of fact if you had your nuts cut off before you reached puberty you wouldn't go bald even if you had the gene.
That's the real reason women don't experience male pattern baldness (although many do experience some thinning of their hair at some point). They don't have testicles.
It can contribute to hair loss but more importantly is whether or not you are genetically prone to MPB. There really isn't much you can do other than use a good anti hair loss shampoo (n2shampoo, nizoral), and rogaine. Just stay away from those DHT blockers like finasteride and dutasteride. Those have really bad sexual side effects.
