A Pattern Here? Environmental Factors in male pattern baldness and FPB

[Lossfer]

I read somewhere that incidence of male pattern baldness and FPB has increased over the
last few decades--ie more people are losing hair than used to be the case, and it is happening at a younger age than before. Is this true to anyone's knowledge, and if so why? Could there be some environmental factors at work causing hairloss or at least contributing to it? I wonder about all the hormones and other chemicals we consume from the processed foods we eat. Who knows all the stuff they inject into cattle, for example, that we are ingesting from beef and milk alone. Any thoughts?

More people are breeding.

in the west we don't eat the same way our grand parents used to when they were kids. There are many other possible factors. Also why is sperm density much lower than in the 50's? I don't know why... So many mysteries...

At the moment I'm interested in the difference between East and West regarding consumption of Omega-3 fatty acids. It's gone down a lot in our countries in the last 50 years and problems like depression have been increasing dramatically. Maybe there's also a connection with hairloss, who knows?

I think you're correct.I've also noticed that girls these days grow and mature so rapidly(Its kinda scary). Maybe that has a connection to all those injections in cattle and drinking the milk. I heard that from somebody. But yes I've also read that the fat in animals(that includes milk too of course) can have a negative effect on hairloss.
