Gender Bias of hair loss?

Undeniably, women seem to be more adversely affected than men by balding as the general and common perception of society seems to emphasize looks more on females than males.

Since time immemorial, women are generally conceived to be the more attractive gender while men are to be strong to protect the fairer gender.

When we are dealing with hair loss, a disease, which threatens the looks of sufferers (image of a person’s contributed largely by his or her hair), society tends to frown more on balding women than men.

One contributing factor for the aforementioned phenomenon is also the fact that men form the majority of the people who are balding. But gradually and surely, there is an evident increasing trend of women balding.

Stress caused by societies in modern day living, juggling the high demands of life all within 24 hours causing the balding trend?

Or is it the food we eat?

No single real cause could be ascertained with precise certainty; it might be a cause of inheritances of genes and a host of other factors.

One common thread that binds through all hair loss sufferers is the suffering or loss of esteem and the fervent wish to regrow hair once more.
