Genetic testing can predict baldness
According to a recent study, one in seven people have a high likelihood of developing baldness from a genetic childhood. Research by British scientists said that people who inherited two special mutated genes were seven times more likely to become bald when entering age 40 than those who did not carry the gene.
Research shows that people with both mutated genes have a 70% chance of developing baldness, while this rate in people without a gene is only 10%. Currently about 14% of men carry both mutated genes. Scientists used research samples from 1,125 white European men.
The above finding will allow people at risk of baldness to actively use drugs beforehand to delay, prevent or even escape the ' wipe the face for a long time, then comb their hair '. The study also helps develop new treatments for baldness.
Professor Tim Spector of King College, London, who led the study, explained: 'Prevention before hair loss can lead to some noticeable treatments that are more effective than after hair treatment. has fallen. Pharmaceutical companies will also try to produce preventive medicines before things are too late. '
Currently one-third of men aged 45 and 2/3 in their 60s are affected by baldness. Male pattern baldness also occurs in women but is quite rare.
