Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Z-2-H Family Med & Urgent Care

What is Androgenetic Alopecia?

Androgenetic Alopecia, commonly known as male-pattern or female-pattern hair loss, is a hereditary condition caused by hormonal and genetic factors. It gradually leads to thinning hair and changes in hair density over time.

What symptoms indicate I should seek an evaluation?

Concerns such as thinning hair on the crown, receding hairline, widening part line, or increased shedding may indicate Androgenetic Alopecia. A medical evaluation helps determine the cause and appropriate treatment options.

Is treatment available for Androgenetic Alopecia?

Yes. Evidence-based treatments — including topical therapies, oral medications, lifestyle adjustments, and supportive supplements — can help slow or improve hair loss depending on the individual.

Can stress or medical conditions worsen hair thinning?

Yes. Stress, thyroid conditions, iron deficiency, hormonal changes, and certain illnesses can contribute to hair thinning. Your provider will assess for underlying factors during your visit.

Will I need lab tests?

Testing may be recommended if your provider suspects hormonal, nutritional, or thyroid-related contributors to your hair loss. Labs help guide targeted treatment.

Is this condition reversible?

While Androgenetic Alopecia is a chronic condition, early treatment can slow progression and often improve hair density. Individual results vary based on genetics and treatment consistency.

How is in-home evaluation different from in-clinic care?

In-home evaluation (U) provides privacy and convenience with no travel required. In-clinic care (K) offers a full clinical environment, including testing and on-site procedures when needed. Both provide medical-grade assessment and treatment planning.

Is this service covered by insurance?

Most major insurance plans are accepted. Coverage varies depending on your plan and any recommended testing. Our team can verify your insurance prior to your visit.

How soon can I get an appointment?

Same-day or next-day appointments are typically available. Mobile care (U) can often arrive within a scheduled window, while in-clinic visits (K) offer flexible scheduling based on clinic hours.

Can telehealth be used for hair loss evaluation?

Yes. Telehealth can be used for initial consultation, treatment follow-up, and medication reviews. However, an in-person evaluation is recommended for scalp examination when possible.

Is my medical information kept private?

Absolutely. All evaluations comply with HIPAA guidelines. Your personal health information is confidential and protected whether the visit is in-home, in-clinic, or via telehealth.

Do both men and women experience Androgenetic Alopecia?

Yes. Although patterns differ, both men and women can develop genetically driven hair thinning. Our clinicians evaluate and treat patients of all genders.

Is follow-up care available?

Yes. Continued monitoring helps track progress and adjust treatment. Follow-up visits are available via in-home care, in-clinic appointments, or telehealth depending on your needs.
