Women also experience this by general hair thinning. It can be due to genetic or hormonal issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This hormone is known as Dihydrotestosterone that comes from Testosterone, which is the male sex hormone. <a class=\"wpil_keyword_link\" href=\"https:\/\/WowRxPharmacy.com\/blog\/hair-loss\/dht\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"DHT\" data-wpil-keyword-link=\"linked\">DHT<\/a> weakens the hair follicles by binding to Testosterone.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Testosterones are present in women as well.
