American males experience this effect by age 25.
Why Male Pattern Baldness occurs is not certain.
Genetics have a lot to do with it, that is a certainty.
The hormone Androgen is a big player in hair loss.
Simply put : the more Androgen you have, the
faster you'll lose hair.

The female equivalent affects about 21 million females in the US alone. Again, genetics plays a major role in it's development. It can start as early as puberty, but most women see the first effects after the menopause. One difference with men is that the hair thins more than it falls
out. The top of the head is usually the most affected.
