myth of male pattern baldness

<< < (2/3) > >>

stasiu:
There's more YouTube guys out there promoting hairgrowth and combatting male pattern baldness.  This one young kid talks about all these herbs and stuff he takes and yet he is clearly balding but hides with hairspray and stuff and denies he's losing hair.  To each his own.  You can't fight nature and if you are in good health, just accept baldness !

I just wonder if all of the sly bald guys would get more or less the same results when they would do lab tests? would be interesting for future research

RichieRichie:
He's sorta right but mostly wrong.

Yes, hypo/hyperthyroidism can cause hair loss, and so can abnormalities in prolactin and other hormones (ie. postpartum hair loss in women). But certainly the majority of hair loss in males is MPB, and DHT has been identified as the key in the pathogenesis. It ain't no myth!

Until I went Sly last July I did not take notice of the existence or degree of MPD.  Since then I have noted that very few men older than mid twenties truly have a full head of hair.
