If you put all this fascinating information together, what you get ( for anyone who still cares) is the following. 

Sons inherit the baldness gene from their mothers, who are carriers. This gene leads to the production of the enzyme 5-alpha-reductase. 

This enzyme catalyses (speeds up) the conversion of testosterone to dihydrotestosterones. These hormones negatively affect the growth of the hair follicles and voila baldness.]]></description>

Actually, the most common cause of male baldness is genetic. Woman ( XX) can be carriers of the baldness gene on their X chromosomes. This is then expressed in their sons (XY) who inherit the baldness gene on the X chromosome they get from their mother. On a tiny island such as Malta, the high percentage of bald men is predominately caused by genetics. ]]></description>
