However, a deeper insight into AGA and its impact on young men are lacking in the literature. Moreover, its impact is currently measured with general dermatological health\u2010related quality of life questionnaires.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Aims<\/jats:title><jats:p>Aim of this study was hence twofold: (i) to explore the individual experience of men with AGA via a qualitative study and (ii) to use these insights to create and preliminary validate a set of items for measuring quality of life specifically in AGA.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Patients\/Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>The qualitative study was carried out on a convenience sample of 11 young men in different stages of AGA. In the quantitative study, items for measuring quality of life in androgenetic alopecia were created and distributed to an online sample of men younger than 35 (<jats:italic>N\u00a0<\/jats:italic>=\u00a0129).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Multiple themes and sub\u2010themes were obtained in the qualitative study, highlighting the loss of control, lowered attractiveness, concerns about dating, and an influence on daily functioning the young men felt. In the quantitative study, nine items were retained, demonstrating high reliability, and moderate correlations with self\u2010esteem and subjective well\u2010being.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>AGA is a valid issue, which has a marked impact on young men. We believe that further developing and validating a tool that would measure quality of life specifically in AGA, or generally in different alopecia types, is an approach worth taking.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/jocd.14132","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,4,5]],"date-time":"2021-04-05T06:27:59Z","timestamp":1617604079000},"page":"794-801","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":18,"title":["Quality of life in young men with androgenetic alopecia: A mixed methods study"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"21","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2633-3271","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Josip","family":"Razum","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Ivo Pilar Institute of Social Sciences Zagreb Croatia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3734-5582","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Tena","family":"Vukasovi\u0107 Hlupi\u0107","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Psychology Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences University of Zagreb Zagreb Croatia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,4,16]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_13_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1185\/030079905X61820"},{"key":"e_1_2_13_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1046\/j.1365-2133.1999.03030.x"},{"issue":"2","key":"e_1_2_13_4_1","first-page":"122","article-title":"The effects of hair loss in European men: a survey in four countries","volume":"10","author":"Budd D","year":"2000","journal-title":"EJD"},{"key":"e_1_2_13_5_1","volume-title":"Hair Transplant Market to 2025 \u2010 Global Analysis and Forecasts by Technique (Follicular Unit Extraction and Follicular Unit Strip Surgery), by Site of Transplant (Scalp Facial and Chest), by Therapy (PRP, Laser Cap and Revage 670 Laser)","author":"Research and Markets","year":"2018"},{"key":"e_1_2_13_6_1","volume-title":".
