Abstract
Male androgenetic alopecia (AGA) has been implicated as a putative risk factor in severe Covid-19 based on high incidences of advanced AGA in male hospitalized Covid-19 patients. Research further suggests that androgen signaling, which plays a central role in AGA etiology, promotes SARS-CoV-2 infection and is associated with severe Covid-19 symptoms in men. We aimed to systematically investigate a potential association between AGA and Covid-19 both on an epidemiological and a genetic level in a large single-population cohort.
