Quick answers to questions you may have

Is genetic testing accurate for hair loss?

Yes, modern genetic tests for hair loss are highly accurate in identifying specific genetic markers and predispositions. However, it’s important to remember that genetics are one factor among many (hormones, lifestyle, environment) that contribute to hair loss.

Does genetic testing tell me if I will go bald for sure

No, it tells you your genetic predisposition and risk. While a high genetic risk means you are more likely to experience hair loss, it’s not a definitive prediction. Environmental factors, lifestyle, and timely intervention can significantly influence the outcome.

What kind of hair loss can genetic testing help with?

It is most commonly used for androgenetic alopecia (male and female pattern baldness) but can also offer insights into sensitivities to certain medications or metabolic pathways relevant to other hair loss types.

Is the sample collection painful?

No, sample collection is typically done via a simple, painless cheek swab or saliva sample. There are no needles involved.

Can genetic testing guide treatment choices?

Absolutely. Genetic testing provides valuable information on how you might respond to certain medications (e.g., Finasteride or Minoxidil), whether you have specific nutritional needs for hair, and even your risk for inflammation, allowing for a truly personalized and effective treatment strategy.
