    Male pattern baldness is a male/masculine trait. Working against that is not gender affirming.

      It’s a sign of too much testosterone being converted to dht and having genes that sensitize the hair on your head to it so that they fall out, which primarily happens with age and stress.

      Gender affirming care.

      I don’t have male pattern baldness, but is hair thinning a masculine trait? Just kidding, I couldn’t give less of a shit what people consider makes me masculine. I’m a man as far as I’m concerned.
