Epicranial aponeurosis Puns

It’s always been apparent to me that muscles contract towards the origins and that the origin doesn’t move.

So I was quite confused when I was taught that the origin of the frontal belly is the skin of the eyebrows. It makes no sense to me.

It should be the other way around.

I started losing hair at 18. Hopped on fin/min/derm at 20 and got a lot of my hair back by the time I was 21. Now I’m 23 and I’m starting to lose all my hair again. I haven’t changed anything related to fin/min/derm or my diet, so I don’t know why I’m losing all my hair again. Has this happen to anyone else? Do I up my finasteride dosage maybe? I take 1mg daily currently.

This theory suggests that male pattern hair loss (MPHL) results from an exaggeration of skull bone growth and the formation of ridges (and promontory areas, bumps) along the suture lines of the scalp, with the genetic component being sensitivity to DHT in one or more of the bones of the skull. (I.e. parietal, frontal, occipital bones)

This will turn will trigger a cascade that involves galea aponeurotica/skin tension  (1) → inflammation/gradual fibrosis (TGF-b, IL-6 etc.) in the affected region directly above the galea (2) → reduced blood flow to the follicles of the affected region, resulting from the tension directly, and in time from the fibrotic lesions even more so (3) → progressive MPHL.

The catalyst for this process is suggested to be (in most cases) poor insulin sensitivity/metabolic syndrome, (MS) as insulin, IGF-1 and SHBG are all involved in the regulation of androgens/DHT, and those factors are all dysregulated in individuals with degrees of the MS. (4) (5) (6) This in turn could lead to evolutionary novel levels of DHT. Poor insulin sensitivity and the MS resulting from the modern industrial diet and lifestyle could then be said to be the ultimate cause of MPHL. This is corroborated by the observation that only mild post reproductive MPHL is observed in rare cases in wild living humans, (hunter-gatherer`s) as well as in our closest primate relatives. (Chimps and Bonobo`s etc.) Hence younger age, widespread and more severe MPHL could be a form of exaggerated antagonistic pleiotropy, (7) and might be considered a disease of civilization.

-I might also add that you can move a single vellus follicle from the scalp of AGA-prone men and have it grow better than non-AGA follicles, even when controlling for DHT. (8) You are simply removing it from the fibrotic environment. So it`s a question of mechanism here.

-Also, what are the chances that the fact that MPB only happens in the region above the galea, (9) and that the measured t

I don't want to step on anybody's toes here, but the amount of non-dad jokes here in this subreddit really annoys me. First of all, dad jokes CAN be NSFW, it clearly says so in the sub rules. Secondly, it doesn't automatically make it a dad joke if it's from a conversation between you and your child. Most importantly, the jokes that your CHILDREN tell YOU are not dad jokes. The point of a dad joke is that it's so cheesy only a dad who's trying to be funny would make such a joke. That's it. They are stupid plays on words, lame puns and so on. There has to be a clever pun or wordplay for it to be considered a dad joke.

Again, to all the fellow dads, I apologise if I'm sounding too harsh. But I just needed to get it off my chest.

Do your worst!

I'm surprised it hasn't decade.

They were cooked in Greece.

For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.

I said "hey look, an escaPEA"

No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!

Edit: I can't believe how much this has blown up. Thank you everyone I've had a blast reading through the replies 😂

It really does, I swear!

Because she wanted to see the task manager.

Heard they've been doing some shady business.

but then I remembered it was ground this morning.

Edit: Thank you guys for the awards, they're much nicer than the cardboard sleeve I've been using and reassures me that my jokes aren't stale

Edit 2: I have already been made aware that Men In Black 3 has told a version of this joke before. If the joke is not new to you, please enjoy any of the single origin puns in the comments

BamBOO!

They’re on standbi

A play on words.

Pilot on me!!

Nothing, he was gladiator.

Or would that be too forward thinking?

Dad jokes are supposed to be jokes you can tell a kid and they will understand it and find it funny.

This sub is mostly just NSFW puns now.

If it needs a NSFW tag it's not a dad joke. There should just be a NSFW puns subreddit for that.

Edit* I'm not replying any longer and turning off notifications but to all those that say "no one cares", there sure are a lot of you arguing about it. Maybe I'm wrong but you people don't need to be rude about it. If you really don't care, don't comment.

What did 0 say to 8 ?

" Nice Belt "

So What did 3 say to 8 ?

" Hey, you two stop making out "

When I got home, they were still there.

I won't be doing that today!

This morning, my 4 year old daughter.

Daughter: I'm hungry

Me: nerves building, smile widening

Me: Hi hungry, I'm dad.

She had no idea what was going on but I finally did it.

Thank you all for listening.

Scalp, or in other words, the layers of tissue covering the cranium.

Notice I said layers of tissue.

Do you know the layers of the scalp? There’s an easy way to remember them.

S->Skin.

C->Connective Tissue. Layer of vasculature and innervation amongst a dense connective tissue

A->Aponeurosis. The epicranial Aponeurosis (ay-po-ner-o-sis) is a layer of tendon connecting the frontal muscles and the Occipitalis muscle in the back of the head. This layer allows the movement of the scalp

L->Loose Areolar tissue. Another vascularized layer of connective tissue

P->Pericranium. The external surface of the skull bones.

The word scalp is an acronym for the layers of the scalp.

I do be like that sometimes.
