.I am extrememly underweigt, only 49 KG at age 23, have thin bones like a child's and muscles are too little.... Think my puberty has stopped...i have male pattern baldness supposedly and on propecia and my vertex have improved and hairline slightly..

Current situation: i have temple recede at most its 2.5 now and hairline still there but thinning in front. small part of vertex is also thinning and going.Now my Q is...

1)Since T>DHT>male pattern baldness, am i sureing from male pattern baldness cause too much T was being converted into DHT and causing male pattern baldness?


2)is it possible that because of the above, my overall gowth is stunned as T is responcsible for growth and muscles?...I would like to know the exact role of Testesterone pre and post puberty

3) hears that everyone has AR receptors on their scalp and this cause male pattern baldness in some right?....now my Q is it possible that certain areas of the head have high receptors (front+vertex) TOO MUCH DHT as in 1) can cause male pattern baldness even if u are not genetically predisposed?.I have thick hair in the middle.only front, vertex and temple

anyone has answers?

No, male pattern baldness isnt related to your testosterone levels but to the genetic sensitivity of your follicles to DHT.

Your lack of weight etc could be due to a low natural level of test, but very unlikely this is caused by all your test converting to DHT, especially if your on propecia now anyway. Have you looked at the weight training forum? You might get some ideas about how to improve your physique.

i basically have the same bone mass, structure since 13 but only my height has grown considereably.....any ideas?...and my sexual urge was high during my prettees and teens...so i suspect thaere is too much DHT causing high sex drive....

is it possible the low Testes level could cause male pattern baldness?

i have never come cross underweight frail people having aggressive forms of male pattern baldness....Slightly yes but never to the point bald...Most of the people i see who are bald are overweight, Muscular athletes ect....
