I started losing my hair when I was about 21 or so. EVERYONE seemed to find it the most interesting thing to talk about. My grandmothers in particular, seemed to talk about it a little too much for my taste... Did not make me happy, and people can be rude, but there are worse things to deal with. Still, I miss my hair. If I could afford a cure, I would do it I think.

There are reasons some men must be bald. Now can someone please splain them to me??? There is a gene that causes pattern baldness, which sorts by classic Mendelian principles.
E.g., the cross of parents Bb x Bb (where B is normal hair and b is bald), gives offspring BB, Bb, bB, bb.
In female offspring, the B acts dominant, so BB, Bb and bB offspring all have full hair and bb has pattern baldness.
In male offspring, however, the testosterone makes the b act dominant, so that Bb, bB, and bb all have pattern baldness.
The reason it is said that mothers pass baldness to their sons is because of the testosterone changing the gene expression. Even if the father has a full head of hair, the Bb mother gives that b gene to half her children, and if they are boys, they will develop pattern baldness.

I’ve never lost any of my hair. I’ve taken saw palmetto for prostate health and noticed my hairline moving down my forehaed.

I’ve never been mistaken for Yul Brenner.
I’m not bald, and my head doesn’t glimmer.
