HairDont said:OK Bryan here is the answer:
Some estrogen is good, too much estrogen is bad.
Easy enough!
I definitely believe that estrogen overload leads to hair thinning.
Switch to Organic milk. A bit more expensive, but you will feel much better about the decision.
Hoppi said:Additionally, every time I hear about an estrogen study "in vitro" it makes me chuckle ^_^
Hoppi said:well, it's just because like, it's quite obvious that it's a completely different case when the estrogen is within a male body, and different again when it's within a female body.
Hoppi said:It seems that men with higher levels of estrogen are more susceptible to male pattern baldness, but this could be merely a correlation, as those people are also those who tend to be older...
Hoppi said:I have heard all kinds of things such as it upregulating 5ar (or some other key part of the chain leading to male pattern baldness)...

I know It was just to show you that things have been exhaustively researched and understood, more than you and I could imagine...

Obviously not. Otherwise the transgender regime would not work at all: men who take estrogen get their hair back!When androgens rise in women they get hair thinning and ance, when estrogens rise in men they get hair thinning and ance.
Dude.... shut up lol. You just responded to someone from 2010Obviously not. Otherwise the transgender regime would not work at all: men who take estrogen get their hair back!
The reason men on Androgenetic Alopecia have more estrogen could be because the body has already recognized the calcification of the blood vessels and THEREFORE has increased the estrogen to counteract it.
