Put it this way: I remember getting excited for new “genetic” therapies that were “just around the corner” 20 years ago. ‘I’ll have nothing to worry about!’, I thought. Today, I’m hearing about new genetic therapies that are “just around the corner.”
I disagree with the other poster that said it’s just not a high priority. I think they’re trying, hard. It’s just that much of a huge complicated challenge. The company that makes an honest-to-goodness CURE will be the next Tesla! It would be bigger than Viagra was to Pfizer, because it’s a much more widespread condition.
The only ‘cures’ we’ve had so far were accidents–drugs that had a positive *side effect* on hair loss. One for high blood pressure and one for enlarged prostate/cancer. Both have side effects that are very unpleasant, and permanent if you take them long enough. Which you have to or you lose everything you’ve gained. Look up Propecia d*ck.
Hair transplant is kinda gross. The ‘donor’ scars ensure you can never be bald by choice. but it’s the best option, besides doing nothing and dealing with it mentally. My girlfriend tells me she wouldn’t care if I was completely bald. I’ve heard it said that hair to a man is like how women are concerned with their breasts. The opposite sex is much more accepting of how they look than we are, but we’re still overly self-conscious about that body part.
So yeah. I’m girding myself for the razor. Maybe when I’m a senior citizen they’ll have a cure.
