What this test is
Androgens play a major role in pattern hair loss for both men and women. This panel measures the key hormones involved, so you know whether a DHT-blocking or anti-androgen approach makes sense.
Is this test for you?
- You have pattern thinning at the crown or hairline
- You're considering an anti-androgen or DHT-blocking treatment
- You want to understand the hormonal side before starting treatment
