Reminder that you inherit your hair genetics from mitochondrial DNA, which is inherited exclusively from the mother. The best indicator of male pattern baldness is your mother's father, brother, uncle, etc as well your mother's own hairline and hair density. /fit/ anons still deny this eternal trvke.
source?
>>77206989Isn't hair related stuff polygenetic. Like you can sure get good hair genes from your mom and your grandpa, uncle from mother's side may have a full head of hair in their 60s but if you inherit two or more of say high baseline test or med to high dht sensitivity or high fat carrying capacity or being a light sleeper it basically counteracts all the work of the other good genes you had. That's why they call it genetic lottery
>>77206989bruh how does this help me, all grand pas are fucking bald nigga
>>77206989>dad is norwood 6>uncle on mother's side is norwood 2-3 and grandpa at 85 still has more hair than my fatheryou better be right
>>77207105It's bullshit. My mother's father had full head of hair in his 80s and my uncle from that side doesn't even have white hair in his 60s. My father's side went Norwood 3-4 at 50. Guess who went Norwood 5 at 30yo
>The best indicator of male pattern baldness is your mother's father, brother, uncle, etc as well your mother's own hairline and hair density. /fit/ anons still deny this eternal trvke.Personnal experienceMy mother's father and uncle : heads full of hair well into their 70'sMy father, my father's father and uncles : all baldMe and my brother : both bald/balding
>mother's fatherdoesnt have the same mtDNA as your motheryour mother's mother's brother does though
Genetics arent a concrete or definite science like mathematics it relies on anecdote extremely since they unironically still cannot just take a look at your skin or hair or any sample and just be like this guy has sequence AGCAA.... in x spot and y has AGCGA, x has this hue of blonde and y has this hue of brown hair and this is a common observation accross n=x.... They just pop that shit into methylene blue and a computer and do the most basic of chromatographies which is extremely faulty considering all the artefacts and that the machine just compares the light between two given samples, they dont have an actual standard or spectrum or bank for a certain sequence it's just very rough estimates
Also your Mtdna mutates like a dozen times more than nuclear dna good look predicting anything with that
There's a reason ethnic/racial studies rely on y-dna more than mtdna.
all the men on mums side are norwoods but im not. gg.
>>77207115Why are you such a useless retard? Go away
>>77206989Dunno here's my Grandpa from my mother's side in his early 30s, meanwhile dad, second grandpa and me are Norwood 1 or 2.
>>77207105chaim and chomponsky
>>77206989My mother had three brothers, one was full cueball by age 40, one is now in his 60s and hasn't lost a single follicle, the other was slightly balding around the temples and died age 50. My dad is 70 and only started thinning noticably in the past ten years. I'll be 40 this year and my hairline is holding firm so far. It's a complete lottery.
>>77207105theres no source, how about googling niggaits genetics, SCIENCE nigga get reaaal
>>77206989All the men on my mom's side are mega bald. My dad side all the men are bald.Me?Started balding at 17.
>>77207587Based and Aeropilled Baldmaxxer
seems true, my mothers brother and her father are not bald while everyone on my dads side is GIGA bald, my cousin literally had nw 6 by 22y.meanwhile i have a full head of hair at 26y
>>77206989My mom's side almost every man is NW7 bald by 32. Currently 38 and still at Norwood 2.5 or so.OP is gay
>>77207105It's retarded broscience. Some retard made it up and even bigger retards repeat it.
>>77207122what about your mother?
>>77206989Gods an omnipotent wizard, this dna shit is all fake shit to hide what really occurred during the creation period of earth.
>>77207463this looks way cooler than modern shaved head + beard combo
>>77206989No, non maternal balding genes identified:>Chromosome 20p11 locus – one of the strongest non-X associations with male pattern baldness.>HDAC9 – linked in genome studies.>EDA2R – interacts with androgen pathways.>WNT pathway genes (hair follicle growth/signalling).>FGF5 – influences hair growth cycle length.>IRF4 – more often linked to greying.>PAX1 / TARDBP / other GWAS loci – multiple smaller-effect variants identified.>>77207111No, I carry genes for baldness, yet I am not bald at 31 and still with a decen hairline compared to many other men. My maternal grandfather was bald at 21, as was his nephew, and his nephews son, whilst his mothers father had hair.
>>77206989>which is inherited exclusively from the mother.>The best indicator of male pattern baldness is your mother's fatherDo you dipshit faggot retards even think for a moment before you say this stupid shit? If it's passed through the mother, then your grandfather would be completely fucking irrelevant since your mother would've gotten the genes from HER mother. Subhuman IQ.
>>77209143t. mom is balding
>>77206989i have good hair and my grandpa had good hair too
>>77206989>28>brother started balding at 29Is it over?
>>77209143OP is a retard, but you are too. Male pattern baldness genes aren't on mitochondrial DNA. They are on the X chromosome. If you are male, your mother is the one that gave you her X chromosome. Your mother got one of her X chromosomes from her father. That is why a bald maternal grandfather is a predictor of male pattern baldness.
>brazilianseww
>>77208938Ok but Any Norwood + beard looks cooler than shaved with beard, so the bar isn't that high.
>>77210000>OP is a retardno I'm not
>>77206989>your mother's father, brother, uncle, etcAll had full heads into like their 50s. I stared balding at like 25
im low dht cuck born in 1980's who is immune to balding :) I think also it's true that bald men are more virile, it's not a myth. They have too much dht, while the claim is that it's about hair response to dht but it's not. They are more virile typically, higher libido, dumber too thoFInasteride etc. will push dht down 70%, it's so brutal people take that. It's almost as if there was a med that pushed total testosterone down 50% as a side effectAs dht go down, sometime their Testosterone goes up a bit. But it still seems like almost as a sterilization medication
