I've read a lot that if my mother's father is bald i will be too. The thing is, my father isn't bald and he has thick hair at 50. My mother's father had very thin hair and went bald at an early age. If my hair is thick like my father's does this mean i have his characteristics of hair and wont go bald or could i still have thick hair and go bald like my mothers father. I'm 19 by the way.

Answer: Genetics of MPHL?ENGLEWOOD Cliffs NJ For the most part, the gene for hair loss resides on the X chromosome. This means that you inherit baldness from your mother. In reality, there are multiple influences from both the mother and the father. Therefore, if your mother's father is bald there is a good chance that you will have a similar picture, however it is not certain. Hope this helps. Good luck.

Answer: Male Pattern Balding Inheritance There is no one gene that is inherited that leads to male pattern balding. Pattern balding is inherited from both parents not just the mother's side of family (that is an old wives tale, not medical science). It's good that you still have thick hair. Many individuals that progress to Norwood Class 6 or 7 have lost hair at your age.
