Reminder that you inherit your hair genetics from mitochondrial DNA, which is inherited exclusively from the mother. The best indicator of male pattern baldness is your mother's father, brother, uncle, etc as well your mother's own hairline and hair density. /fit/ anons still deny this eternal trvke.

Isn't hair related stuff polygenetic. Like you can sure get good hair genes from your mom and your grandpa, uncle from mother's side may have a full head of hair in their 60s

but if you inherit two or more of say high baseline test or med to high dht sensitivity or high fat carrying capacity or being a light sleeper it basically counteracts all the work of the other good genes you had.

That's why they call it genetic lottery

It's bullshit. My mother's father had full head of hair in his 80s and my uncle from that side doesn't even have white hair in his 60s. My father's side went Norwood 3-4 at 50. Guess who went Norwood 5 at 30yo

Personnal experience

My mother's father and uncle : heads full of hair well into their 70's
My father, my father's father and uncles : all bald
Me and my brother : both bald/balding

>mother's father
doesnt have the same mtDNA as your mother
your mother's mother's brother does though

Genetics arent a concrete or definite science like mathematics it relies on anecdote extremely since they unironically still cannot just take a look at your skin or hair or any sample and just be like this guy has sequence AGCAA.... in x spot and y has AGCGA, x has this hue of blonde and y has this hue of brown hair and this is a common observation accross n=x....
They just pop that shit into methylene blue and a computer and do the most basic of chromatographies which is extremely faulty considering all the artefacts and that the machine just compares the light between two given samples, they dont have an actual standard or spectrum or bank for a certain sequence it's just very rough estimates

Also your Mtdna mutates like a dozen times more than nuclear dna good look predicting anything with that
>>
There's a reason ethnic/racial studies rely on y-dna more than mtdna.

My mother had three brothers, one was full cueball by age 40, one is now in his 60s and hasn't lost a single follicle, the other was slightly balding around the temples and died age 50. My dad is 70 and only started thinning noticably in the past ten years. I'll be 40 this year and my hairline is holding firm so far. It's a complete lottery.
