Both males and females can experience hair thinning due to various reasons, including genetic factors, hormonal changes, medical conditions, and lifestyle choices. Here are some reasons for hair thinning in both genders, along with examples of different demographics:
Genetic Factors
Male Pattern Baldness (Androgenetic Alopecia): This is the most common cause of hair thinning in males, characterized by a receding hairline and thinning hair on the crown. It can start as early as the teenage years or early twenties and is more prevalent in men of Caucasian and Asian descent.

Female Pattern Hair Loss (Androgenetic Alopecia): Women can also experience a gradual thinning of hair over the scalp, especially on the top and crown areas. It typically starts after menopause but can occur earlier as well. Female pattern hair loss is more common in women of Caucasian and African descent.
