NPR Interviews Dr. Bernstein on Hair Transplantation and Hair Loss
March 23rd, 2006Here is one exchange from the interview:
Moderator: How one can tell the difference between hair loss from hormonal imbalances and common baldness?
Dr. Bernstein: Measuring hormone levels alone, although important for medical management, does not necessarily reveal whether the cause of the hair loss is actually hormone related or is genetic. The diagnosis is made by examining the scalp and looking at the hair under close magnification using an instrument called a “Densitometer.”
