If I am low T, and take TRT to get to normal levels, will I increase hairloss?

Or is it more healthy to have normal levels of T.
I thought I read somewhere that having low T could be worse for hairloss

why would low testosterone levels be bad for hairline?

It's not Testosterone that even makes you go bald, it's DHT that can cause hairloss (if your hair is sensitive to it)

Well if you have more testosterone, more will convert to DHT.

And idk why low testosterone would be bad that’s why I asked. I just know I’ve seen it somewhere. Maybe because having low test is just overall bad for you so it promotes an unhealthy living environment for hairs

if you're already balding yes, but it's also not worth being miserable to keep your hair.

Doesn't matter if you are on finasteride but if you are not then yes, it will accelerate hairloss, castration works as a hairloss cure after all

You can take stuff to stop conversion of T to DHT. So it's not that big of a danger if you know what you're doing

Yes, but you could mitigate it with an anti-hairloss protocol.

Topical dutasteride, ketoconazole shampoo, eucapil, minoxidil, and Derminator 2 would be a great stack,

If you’re going to take steroids you need to get your dna tested

There’s specific companies that you send your dna to and will tell you your genetic traits and how likely you are prone to things like male pattern baldness, heart rate recovery etc etc
