Question: Who is responsible for hereditary hairloss.?

I've heard that it is your grandad on your mothers side. My dad has lost some of his hair but still has most of it and is in his mid 40s, but his brother lost his hair in his 20s. My grandad on my moms side still has alot of hair.

It's genetic, and while the maternal grandfather is a good indicator -- not the only one. Baldness comes about due to DHT (converted Testosterone) and the most effective thing you can do is use a product like Propecia that blocks DHT. There are some natural DHT blockers also -- they are weaker, but don't require a prescription. Start using blockers BEFORE you start losing hair.
