Re: hair sprouting in the wrong places

I tend to put some store in what 19 says here...and I would say also, hormonally, things can go Topsy-turvy when the body gets overloaded. Women get this too, or some do.

weirdly, witness the plenty of "tumours" discovered that have whole smaller sets of teeth in them, and so on... As if the body thinks it's growing another person. Don't ask me to give you any URL's. I read all about it, and never saved any.--I was pretty shocked at the time. I don't think this is something most labs would have doctors share with patients, but I'm sure they see lots that doesn't get shared.


as for the genetic thing, I think it's worth considering maybe that much of what we call "genetics" is just the same *patterns* playing out, because they've been passed down. This would include eating habits that would naturally lead to certain imbalances--and then these would be passed down--but where we blame genes, we could as easily be looking at habits and their eventual outcomes.
As wise people have said, when you keep on doing the same thing (patterns) why would you expect different results?
That's not meant as a confrontation by the way--just an illustration.

edit--oh I just realized 19 covered the genetics angle far better...yes well. I agree. Remember the story of whoever it was who cut a large portion of the standard Sunday or celebratory cut of meat before roasting it--and when someone in the family asked why, the answer was "we've always done it like that" ? -- well, the reason, once tracked backwards was discovered to be because the great great grandmother owned a pan that wouldn't fit the regular cut of meat--and ever since then, everyone had carried on cutting off that big piece as if doing that was central to the actual cooking.
