What are my chances of going bald - Genetic Test for Hair Loss

Yes there is a genomics based test for this now, male and female.  Inquiring minds want to know.  If the answer comes back yes, then get a hold of some Propecia©.  If you have the gene variant, you have approximately a 70% chance of going bald, and the same in reverse if you do not have it.  There are FDA approved medications for both male and female.  BD

Why should I take The HairDX Test?  

• The HairDX Genetic Test predicts your risk for hair loss or thinning
• By the time hair loss or thinning is noticeable — almost 50% of your hair could be gone
• The only FDA approved treatments are best at preserving EXISTING hair — not re-growing lost hair
• The HairDX test will help predict your hair loss BEFORE you can see any visible hair loss

What will The HairDX Test tell me?

• The HairDX Genetic Test for Female Pattern Hair Loss provides women with a score, called the CAG repeat score
• A smaller CAG test score is associated with a higher risk for significant hair loss (Ludwig grade II or III hair loss)
• A larger CAG test score is associated with a lower risk for hair loss
• Scientists discovered that only 2.3% of women with a CAG test score below 15 did NOT develop Female Pattern Hair Loss
