hi, I'm actually 21 and balding on the temples and i searched on my family history to understand better the way i'm going to loose hair. But i wanted to know something, if i have the same hair texture and implantation on the head that my mother and if i begin to loose hair same way that the brother of my mother (only on the temples). is it possible that my father side can worsen my hair loss anyway? Is it possible that only my temple recced even if i begin to loose hair very early.I know it's hard to answer but if someone knows something, i'll be glad.
with genetics, it is not cut and dry; you can inherit a "combination" or "blend" if you will from each side; of course looking at the MPB of the men on either side does give indication/signs that you could be predisposed to MPB but the exact mechanism is very complex thus impossible to predict;
yeah, there is no way to tell. my brother, dad, uncles, grandparents on both sides all had more hair, even at 75, and I am only 35. so, goes to show that genetics are still not totally understood as far as hair goes, but it definately plays a part (ie if you dad is a bald eagle, you will be too). my advice, wait a few years, within that time anything can happen. no point getting a HT early and needing another and another, might as well do 1 or 2 instead of 3...
