A member asked:
Does too much or too little testosterone lead to hair loss for males? or is it an imbalance of estrogen
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Myth: Too little testosterone is why eunuchs and klinefelter XXY men don't get hair loss. "too much testosterone" is part of the male condition from age 13-109; most of us are maxed-out. Forget the "estrogen imbalance" tripe from the internet. Masculine hair loss is genetically programmed and generally correlates with your much chest hair you're blessed with. Meds, surgery, or stay fit to look great.
