What is Female Pattern Hair Loss, Cause and Treatment

When is the first time you notice that the pony tails begin smaller? If you are thinking that you may have hair loss problem, keep noticing that your hair is thinner mainly on the top and crown of the scalp or not. If yes, you may have female pattern hair loss.
