A member asked:
A dr. said the more thick chest hair is, the more likely you'll go bald. does this include other body hair? (legs, arms, facial hair, etc.)
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
He may have: Believed that thick chest hair is a sign of higher testosterone levels, which can accellerate balding -- however chest hair is more genetic than hormonal.

Back hair also: Just look around where older guys aren't wearing shirts, ball caps or wigs. You'll see a close correlation.
