Answer 1

Beard growth and testosterone are closely linked. However, they aren’t the only factors that determine the thickness, shape and rate of beard growth. Genetics is also a huge factor. Also, growing a good-sized beard takes time. You’re more likely to see older people with thicker beards because they’ve had more time to grow out their beards.
