The Bottom Line

[DeuceWillis]

I thought I should post this because from the latest news in the research on hair loss and hair regeneration, it's clear that we won't have a cure for a while. The bottom line is-- MPB is a genetic trait, it's nothing more, nothing less. The hair follicles on top of our heads are on a genetically programmed biological clock. Male Pattern Baldness is far from rare and on into life, 80-90% of men deal with it. The biggest problem with baldness is that it strikes so young. I don't believe any of us would have issues with it if we were 90 years old. Lol... With that being said, I don't think this condition is cureable via the methods being researched. Being that it happens to the majority of the sex, at different times in life, I think it's too complex. I also love the idea, but believe that creating new follicles isn't the way. Not when we have them already, they just need fixing. What needs to be done is finding the genetic deference between a functioning hair and one affected by androgenetic alopecia, find the mechanism that acts as the biological clock on our follicles, and either turn it back or extinguish it all together. Until then there will be no full blown cure. Disagree if you will, just my 2 cents.
