Who's At Risk
Male pattern baldness affects many different types of men, spanning both age and race. While black men have more frontal baldness than white men, they less commonly have balding at the crown region of the scalp.

Male pattern baldness may be hastened by other forms of hair loss, such as chemotherapy-induced hair loss. Likewise, male pattern baldness becomes more common as age increases.
