Test for preventing hair loss (androgenetic alopecia, areata or telogen effluvium)
Find out the real reason for your hair loss
This test is the most comprehensive, analyzing 48 genetic variants related to hair loss. It allows you to know if you suffer from androgenetic alopecia, areata or telogen effluvium, a hereditary disease that can be prevented if diagnosed in time.

What is alopecia?
-
Alopecia is a hereditary disease, it affects 50% of the male population and 30% of the female population. Among the most common types of alopecia we find: androgenic (AGA), areata (AA) and telogen effluvium (TE).
How can I prevent or cure alopecia?
-
The treatment for alopecia is different for each individual, and this study is based on DNA microarray technology. The result report analyzes associations with 7 different categories of alopecia treatment options:
- Prostaglandins and sulfotransferase
- Anti-inflammatory drugs
- Anti-androgens
- Circulation stimulation
- Collagen synthesis
- Vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants
- Insulin-like growth factor
- Prostaglandin metabolism.
- Metabolism of the enzyme sulfotransferase.
- Response to antiandrogenic treatments.
- Response to anti-inflammatory treatment (glucocorticoids).
- Vasodilation and circulation.
- Collagen synthesis.
- Vitamins A and B.
- Insulin growth factors.
Why does alopecia occur?
-
The causes for hair loss can be multifactorial, from specific episodes of stress to the reaction to some medical treatment. This test will allow you to clear up doubts about the cause of your alopecia or hair loss.
What does this test analyze?
-
This is a pharmacogenetic study that consists of analyzing 48 genetic variants related to alopecia to determine the patient's response to certain medications and to determine the most appropriate personalized treatment.
The study analyzes both genetic factors and other relevant characteristics (extrinsic factors such as pathologies, emotional state, physical activity, lifestyle habits, and family history) obtained through a patient history in a post-results consultation. This process provides a complete understanding of the underlying factors of alopecia development in the patient.
The parameters analyzed are the following:
