Preparing questions in advance can help patients to have more meaningful discussions with their physicians regarding their conditions. Patients may wish to ask their doctors the following hair loss-related questions:

1. What may be causing my hair loss?
   
   
2. Should I be tested for a disease that may be causing my hair loss?
   
   
3. How extensive will my hair loss be?
   
   
4. How likely am I to have hair regrowth?
   
   
5. What are my treatment options?
   
   
6. Is hair transplantation something I should consider?
   
   
7. Will the results of my treatment be permanent?
   
   
8. Will I pass my baldness on to my kids?
