The most common type of hair loss encountered in men is called male pattern baldness (also known as androgenic alopecia.) This condition leads to the gradual decrease in width of hair until the hair is completely gone and baldness develops.
According to recent research, the main cause of baldness (androgenetic alopecia) is the androgenic hormone called DHT (dihydrotestosterone.) Normally, this hormone plays a number of important functions in the development of man, but when it increases the level of DHT in the scalp, which binds to hair follicles preventing from extraction of nutrients necessary blood flow. This makes the follicles shrink and decrease the width of the hair. The width of the hair shaft determines the width of hair follicles so that the shrink, hair becomes thinner as the result. Finally, the focus becomes so narrow that hair can not grow at all.
Fortunately, the solution the problem of hair loss is quite simple – reduce the level of dihydrotestosterone in the body usually prevents loss of hair (or is reversed if already developed.) There drugs like finasteride (Propecia), which reduce the level of DHT and stop hair loss. However, these medications can sometimes have unpleasant side effects (eg, no known cases of gynecomastia (breast growth in males) and erectile dysfunction among users of finasteride.) Moreover, its effectiveness is not universally accepted.
A better solution to the problem of baldness is to use natural treatments. They work in the same way as synthetic drugs, by blocking and preventing DHT binding to hair follicles. However, since they contain natural ingredients with no side effects commonly associated with synthetic chemicals. This makes natural treatments for hair loss in an attractive alternative to prescription drugs.

We Dont rough your pet at all. and she doesn't like to be pampered in these areas.
Just make sure not hard petting / rubbing is done for the cat, the mine began to lose hair because of that, also you might want to check for fleas ….. simply do not have anyone to pet the cat in these areas and see if it grows back.
