Title: men have a lot less testosterone nowadays, but are going bald in massive numbers
Post by: anabolichalo on April 21, 2013, 04:37:42 AM
explain this phenomenon

we all know that baldness is related to a genetic response to dht

so how come with men nowadays having nearly no test, they still have enough dht to make their inferior hairs to die by the thousands?

You don't need large amounts of DHT. It's really ALL about sensitivity. If you're very sensitive then no matter what you will go bald.

You can be also insensitive, like me, and have shitloads of hair and no facial hair on test and tren ;)

I don't give a flying fuck honestly.

Proscar is bullshit, I wouldn't fuck with 5alpha reductase. Just use stuff that acts locally like nizoral shampoo. If it doesn't help then maybe a hair transplant :D

Perhaps less men give a shit and have foregone the  rug and plugs? More than likely it's just your heightened perception because you're losing hair yourself?

Barber shop business is probably down because everyone just shaves/clips their own hair.

I'm 45. The old man was totally bald by his late 20's and mom was almost 100% grey. Adopted perhaps? Though, the mailman sure has a thick head of hair.  ;)

Yeah, most people my age are bald or balding.

I've got a thick head of hair at age 35, though a little receding at each side of the temples. My dad is 75 and has even thicker hair than me. Genetics.

Ronnie Coleman took mass quantities of steroids non stop for 20+ years and still can grow a full head of hair.

I think that's considered normal for 90% of males.

Had mine tested and I am the opposite.  But I don't drink, smoke, or do other drugs. I take no supplements, not even vitamin C. I don't count macros or calories. Think about it, that is just unnecessary and confusing for your mind and body and soul. I took me until my 30's to realize it's actually detrimental to ignore how a body is the result of 100.000+++ years of evolution.


I'm not disciplined, and I stay up at night sometimes, sometimes take a nap when I got time in the day, it doesn't affect me negatively like it used to. When I was in my 20's eating hight protein, counting macros and garbage supplements I was not as strong as now and the lack of rest affected me more. It's a complete turnaround.

Isn't one of those anti balding prescription medicines really an anti testosterone creme?

I drank alcohol and did a lot of rec drugs 20 years ago. I essentially quit both in the mid 90's. I still drink occasionally. I'll have the odd beer or glass of wine but that's about it. I've been eating healthy all my life though and started working out over 30 years ago.

And another key is to meditate with music and training. It changes your hormones and DNA and that is a fact.




This will give you high testosterone and preserve a hairline.

I have this noticed as well alot more baldness lately, I guess I'm still lucky have my hair nowdays. Well Falcon is gonna say it's heme-iron. DHT is a different type of testosterone than regular testosterone.
