I have undergone a hair transplant. Will my children still be bald?

Did you hear about the Chinese man who sued his wife after seeing his children?  The children were not very good looking and the man found out that his wife had extensive plastic surgery.Just because you had a hair transplant surgery does not mean you lost your genes for balding.  You may have passed on your genes for balding to your children or your grandchildren.

hi JaggiCongratulations on your recent hair transplant.  The chance for your children to develop hair loss depends on BOTH your family history and your parter's family history.  The genetics of hair loss comes from both sides of the family.Whenever I discuss the genetics of male balding ... I am reminded of an important study:In a study of 572 men ages 16-91, young men with a balding father had a 5.5 times increased risk of balding than young men who did not have a balding father. Certainly, there is an increased risk for your children to have hair loss, but it is certainly not a guarantee. You need to look at the history of hair loss on both sides of your family. ReferencesBirch MP Eur J Dermatol 2001; 11-16Ellis JA. J Inv Dermatol 1998 110: 849-53

Your children, may or may not develop balding. If you have a hair transplant, it will not change what will happen to your children, as it is in the genes that you and their mother gave them
