Some women do go bald, but male pattern baldness is caused by testosterone hormone which men have at much higher quantities.

Afaik there’s a gene in the x chromosome. Since men only have one x, they are more prone to baldness. Women need 2 of the same genes in both of their x chromosomes so most of them don’t bald.
