Sex-Linkage Diseases
Baldness / Alopecia:
Common condition affecting both men and women.
Refers to hair loss in various forms.
Types of Alopecia:
Androgenetic Alopecia: Progressive thinning of hair in both genders.
Alopecia Areata: Autoimmune condition causing patchy hair loss.
Telogen Effluvium: Temporary hair shedding triggered by stress, illness, or hormonal changes.
Traction Alopecia: Hair loss due to excessive pulling on the hair.
Specific Sex-Linkage Diseases
Male Galactorrhea:
Production of breast milk in men due to hormonal imbalances or medications.
Elevated prolactin levels often caused by pituitary gland disorders.
Albinism:
Lack of melanin pigment in skin, hair, and eyes.
Results in lighter than usual coloration and vision problems.
Fragile X Syndrome:
Characterized by intellectual disability, developmental delays, and behavioral challenges.
Caused by a mutation in the FMR1 gene affecting fragile X mental retardation protein.
Colorblindness:
Difficulty distinguishing between certain colors, more common in men.
Red-green colorblindness is a common form.
Hemophilia:
Genetic bleeding disorder with a deficiency in clotting factors.
More commonly inherited in males due to mutations on the X chromosome.

Progressive neurodegenerative disorder with motor dysfunction and cognitive decline.
Caused by a mutation in the HTT gene leading to toxic protein production.
Hypertrichosis Pinnae Auris:
