In most cases, male baldness is caused by the bodies' REACTION to certain testosterone by-products, not to the over-production of testosterone.

In these men, the body accumulates these by-products in the areas that end up going bald, and it causes the death of the follicles.

There is nothing to support the theory that bald men have more testosterone because they "have no release for it" and that is a recidulous notion.

If you haven't noticed, bald is kind of "in" now...and I can honestly say I have had MORE attention from the opposite sex since taking the plunge.

I LIKE being bald. Wouldn't go back if I could.
...which I can't so It's probably a good thing (:

Oh...I better say something about snakes in this post...INDIGOS RULE !!
