Will I Go Bald On Testosterone HRT? | #TransHealth

One of the biggest scares for me when I decided to start taking testosterone to medically transition was my risk for developing hair loss. In this video I break down what's your risk to becoming bald if you were to begin testosterone HRT.

Thanks for the info!! It’s so hard to find info on this specific to trans people. Can’t wait for your next video!

Thanks for the video! :)
Met some cis-men who started balding at age 18, and trans men who have lost significant amounts of hair in their 20s after like 5 years on T. So your milage may vary I guess.
Is testosterone dosage a relevant factor at all? Like is someone who takes a "full" dosage/who's body produces more testosterone more likely to go bald than someone who's microdosing/who's body doesn't produce as much (but is still within the common male range)?
Also did you end up making that follow up video about hairloss prevention products?

are there any studies to do with specific hair type such as thickness, color, curl pattern, etc and baldness? i have one uncle who is ginger and went completely bald in his 30s, but my dad who has darker, curlier hair is only just starting to develop a bald spot in his mid 50s..
for reference i have blond, straighter hair, likely from my mothers side, which doesn’t have any pattern of hair loss. it’s really just that one relative lol

My hairloss started after 10 years of T.
