A member asked:
I can't find out the main cause of hairloss i don't have genetic affect, no stress, no illness masturbation not linked with hairloss as doctors belive?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It's genetic: Male pattern baldness is usually unmistakable by its distribution and how it tends to affect men with thicker bears and more body hair earlier. It's polygenic and you can only make a first estimate from dad and granddad. Entertaining yourself absolutely does not cause it. Your choices include surgery, medicines, and embracing your heritage, getting really fit, and looking and feeling fantastic.
