In a study conducted by a team from the National Cancer Institute, men who go bald at the front of the mid-scale and also balding at the crown of the head at the age of 45 years have a risk of up to 39 percent of prostate cancer.
However, keep in mind that only 10 percent of the respondents who experienced hair loss. Men who go bald at the front of the head of the prostate cancer risk was not increased.
The researchers do not yet know the explanation between baldness and prostate cancer, but they said it was related to the hormone testosterone and dihydrostestosteron. Both these hormones do play a role both in the typical male pattern baldness or prostate cancer.
