A common question I am asked is, will I lose my hair if I take testosterone? Hair loss and balding is a common worry for trans men who take testosterone as part of their gender transition. In this video, I answer the question of the effects of testosterone and balding and discuss whether there are ways to reduce or reverse hair loss. In the final part of the video, I talk about why losing your hair is so difficult to deal with when you are trans. I discuss the process of coming to terms with losses, such as hair loss, as part of going through gender transition.
note - I say in the video that it isn't taking testosterone that causes hair loss, I do realise that it is DHT in testosterone which causes hair loss, but what I mean by this is that it isn't going through gender transition in itself which causes hair loss, the studies on whether trans men are more likely to lose their hair than cis men is not conclusive. It's being male that causes hair loss, and as trans men, we have always been male, we were just lacking in testosterone. Now we have it, we are as vulnerable as any cis gender man is, to hair loss. Hope that clears things up!
