Question

Why are bald men so common but bald women aren’t?

Answer 1

Same reason you can lose hair while doing steroids, it’s an excess of testosterone that causes male pattern baldness.
There are conditions though where women also lose hair but those are generally auto immune, where the immune system attacks the hair follicles. Stress can also do the same thing in both sexes.
