I am a 30 year old male who has been balding slowly since age 17, and now it has finally accelerated.I am curious as to whether eyebrows also become thin with balding, and does one grow more hair on their chest after they bald? I used to have a hairy chest but now it seems like that is also falling out!
Chest hair results from a combination of genetics and testosterone. Both are needed for a hairy chest. Hair loss on the scalp comes from the same combination. Loss of chest hair may reflect genetic factors. Are you on Propecia (finasteride) for your balding?
