A member asked:
I have hair thinning and also have pcos and believe its due to androgenic alopecia, does hormonally caused hair loss make me a bad candidate for a hair transplant? (female)

See below: Before considering hair transplant, you should address the underlying disorder of PCOS. It would be prudent to see your gynecologist. You may visit this site for information on this topic: https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/polycystic-ovary-syndrome-pcos/treatment/ Wish you good health!
