But that is really good news for young guys who are all torn up about losing their hair.

If you are young and losing your hair you have a LOT more testosterone than your peers.  You are a screaming nuclear powered sex machine!!!

And, if that means that you are at higher risk for male cancer - then man-up and get your regular exams!

Did they mention whether getting a hair transplant from the Hair Club could act as a preventive measure against prostate cancer?

And just being male means we have a far greater chance of dying before our female peers. We all will die of something at some time.
