do you personally believe there can be a cure for baldness soon?

[SF1900]

Are you bald or going bald?

going bald

i take finasteride

but it just slows the process at best


steroids probably not helping

[Griffith]

No, I don't think so.

[_bruce_]

Never ever, at least for the masses.

[thebrink]

Baldness isn't a disease or sickness. Thus, no need for a "cure."

Its merely the result of inbreeding within the family.

You can't stop it.

What about the studies that shows that finasteride, when combined with synthetic testosterone, causes the production of steroid Type II 5α-reductase, rather than inhibiting it?   Sounds like the finasteride could actually be accelerating the problem.

Yeah you're right. Why distract yourself worrying about your dying child when you can post on Getbig about your balding, dented head.

[Costanza]

I sincerely hope so for those who are suffering from it. Never forget when I went on a date with a cute 22 year old honey and she got a text message from a friend half way thru the night asking firstly how it was going, then asked her 'how is his hair?' (she showed me the message). Women, especially younger ones really give a shit about a good head of hair.

i turned women down because of their hairlines

if there is anything i hate more than a man with bad hair

it is a woman with bad hair


of course i never told them that was the reason

[Teutonic Knight]

Thick & long hair symbolize fertility since ancient time   & attracts females  

No bold lions in savannas

and baldness symbolizes a history of inbreeding.

Yep I've done the same. I don't know if I'm prejudiced because I have a thick head of hair, but I look for the same in a female, can't help it.

Face it eggbert, you need move to the sweet 37s who accept this.

Good luck.

Poor genetics  

[YngiweRhoads]

I'll cut off a foot or two of hair and make you a wig.

i rather pay young prostitute than stoop to that level

[thebrink]

Poor genetics  

Sure, we'll call that "poor genetics"  

[AmonRa]

There is no cure and there will never be. Well, maybe when you are 80 years old with 7 inches arms there will be some progress in that direction. Currently, however, nothing could be done.

[Wolfox]

Look at Prince Harry with all his power and resources - yet still bald.

Same with Lebron.

They would be on the cutting edge of treatments - yet still bald.

So for us regular folks that means a guaranteed 10 years of little to no progress.

[calfzilla]

Just go bald and convince yourself you look like Jason Statham.

[OneMoreRep]

Unless you can manipulate the expression of genes, the thought of eradicating baldness will be difficult to execute.

There is no cure for being tall, short, having a particular eye color or having a certain skin color. These are all dictated by way of your genetics and while you can do much to camouflage their expression, it is what it is.

These drugs, that suppress conversion of Testosterone to its byproduct of DHT, can only keep your existing hairs on life support. The reality of it is that none of these drugs offer complete suppression of DHT, so even if minute amounts are getting to the hair follicle, sooner or later that hair follicle will succumb to the effects of DHT. In other words, the inevitable cannot be prevented.

You gentlemen are just cruising on borrowed time and crushing your libido in the process.

My advice, shave it off and move on with your life. Soul Crusher is a great example of a young man that sports his shaved head with pride.

P.S. I did read a while back that they were trying experiments with stem cells for the goal of eradicating hair loss. Whether or not that went anywhere is beyond me.
