Abstract
Androgenic alopecia is the most common hairloss associated with complex polygenic inheritance and androgens resulting in pattern hair loss.Alopecia areata is a second most common hair loss associated with inflammation on the hair follicle resulting in enterference of the normal hair cycle causing anagen arrest and premature entering to catagen and telogen. • Alopecia Areata and Androgenic alopecia are associated with an increased risk of cardiac disease illness as both are associated with coexisting conditions known for cardiovascular disease risk factors. • In 2020, World Health Organization (WHO) reports that the main cause of death worldwide is related to cardiovascular diseases (CVDs)and that Egypt was ranked 15th worldwide with 32.40% of fatalities due to cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). Appropriate actions in detecting individuals at risk, monitoring, and early intervention are crucial. • There is scarce data on cardiac disease risk in Alopecia areata and Androgenic Alopecia, so monitoring the cardiac health of these patients is important.
