      It's the nervous system. We (women) drive them nuts.

            I think you can take a small survey between your elder acquaintances.

      Some people say it's from too much testosterone which produces lots of DHT in males.  Hope this helps smile

    As I heard " The skin which surround the skull is becoming day by day more tight as we get older, so less blood can pass through small veins to nurture the hair follicles.
    Women mostly have longer hair which it is heavy, so it's heaviness stretch the skin which help more blood to nurture the hair follicles.
    So it is said making an oil massage for the head skin to stretch it, is a helpful way to save the hair from falling down.

    It is so because of Y (the Y Chromosome).

      Is that the reason why my husband stops whatever he's doing when I enter the room and says to me with a horrified look upon his face - "Y!   Y!" ?????

    also, natural selection says that most undesirable characteristics that happen after the age of 30 can't be fought against by evolution.  Why?  Because many of our ancestors already had children by then.

    A genetic condition that causes the body to put a chemical around the follicles of certain hair that prevents new hair from going.

        That's what I used to tell kids.

        "Why are you bald?"

        "It's because every time I learned so much that it pushed my hair out".

        They always just responded with "Oh, I don't want to be bald, so I'll stop studying".

        ... oh well.

      And it would not be too unkind to say that I post a lot in fact! smile
