Somewhere right now, a guy is checking his hairline in the mirror and doing math he doesn't want to do. But male pattern baldness isn't a modern problem, and the answer isn't what you think. It's not about 'too much testosterone'—it's about a specific genetic switch and a mystery that even Hippocrates was trying to solve 2,500 years ago.
In this video, we explore the deep history of hair loss, from ancient Egyptian hippo-fat remedies to the modern science of DHT receptors. We'll look at why eunuchs never went bald, why the 'maternal grandfather' myth is actually half-true, and why we might never know if cavemen were bald.
