AGA on the top of the head is an area where oral medications are more likely to be effective. Hair follicles on the top of the head are susceptible to DHT, so finasteride and dutasteride prevent hair loss and promote hair growth. Hair transplantation is also worth considering for frontal recession.
AGA on the top of the head is more likely to respond to oral medications (such as finasteride and dutasteride).This is because the hair follicles on the top of the head are more susceptible to the effects of DHT (dihydrotestosterone).Oral medications inhibit the production of DHT (dihydrotestosterone) and act directly on the hair follicles to prevent hair loss and promote hair growth. In many cases, hair follicles are still active, especially on the top of the head, making it an area where treatment with oral medication is relatively effective.
So why is the top of the head susceptible to DHT (dihydrotestosterone)?
The reason why the top of the head is more susceptible to DHT (dihydrotestosterone) is that the sensitivity of hair follicles varies from region to region. Hair follicles on the top of the head and at the hairline are particularly sensitive to DHT (dihydrotestosterone). DHT (dihydrotestosterone) binds to receptors in the hair follicles, suppressing the function of hair matrix cells and shortening the hair growth phase. As a result, hair becomes thin and weak, and hair loss progresses. On the other hand, hair follicles in the occipital and temporal areas are less sensitive to DHT (dihydrotestosterone), so these areas are less susceptible to AGA.
On the other hand, during the examination, I do not see much effect on the frontal recession. I think there is an option for hair transplantation there, and if it is not effective after 2 years of trying, I would recommend hair transplantation.
