Dr. Nigam's explanation of why hair loss is increasing

[MackJames]

This statement makes me doubt everything Nigam's ever said.

[Morbo]

it's scientifically proven - in which I mean by real scientists and not some obscure Indian quack - that men with a lots of body hair have up to 50 % more chance of going bald than men with little body hair.

So much for that theory.

dht is only bad under poor scalp conditions

Yeah because evolution happens so quickly you can observe it happening in your life time...

I hope this was misquoted or taken out of context. If the frequency of mpb is truly increasing or the age of onset becoming lower, it's because it's most likely an autosomal dominant trait, simple as that.

Yeah, and he talks about huge indicators that have never been proven to be correlated to baldness

And people still doubt that baldness is really more prevalent today, since statistics are very poor

Look, I don't believe in Nigam, but every legit scientist loves to make unfounded comments from time to time that they believe are somewhat true but can't really prove them in any way. James Watson was infamous because of those comments and it took years for someone to get offended and confront him. But it doesn't change any achievements he's made
