Random information on the term “___ pattern baldness”:

Lanugo (/ləˈnuːɡoʊ, -ˈnjuː-/; from Latin lana “wool”) is very thin, soft, usually unpigmented, downy hair that is sometimes found on the body of a foetal or new-born human. It is the first hair to be produced by the foetal hair follicles, and it usually appears around sixteen weeks of gestation and is abundant by week twenty. It is normally shed before birth, around seven or eight months of gestation, but is sometimes present at birth. It disappears on its own within a few weeks.

It is replaced by hair covering the same surfaces, which is called vellus hair. This hair is thinner and more difficult to see. The more visible hair that persists into adulthood is called terminal hair. It forms in specific areas and is hormone-dependent.

During human development, the lanugo grows on foetuses as a normal part of gestation, but it is usually shed and replaced by vellus hair at about thirty-three to thirty-six weeks of gestational age. As the lanugo is shed from the skin, it is normal for the hair to be consumed by the developing foetus, since it drinks from the amniotic fluid and urinates into its environment. As a result, lanugo contributes to the new-born baby’s meconium. The presence of lanugo on new-borns is not necessarily a sign of premature birth. It is seen on infants born at thirty-nine weeks of gestation, that is, full term.

Random information on the term “MALE”:

A boy is a young male human, usually a child or adolescent. When he becomes an adult, he is described as a man.

The word “boy” comes from Middle English boi, boye (“boy, servant”), related to other Germanic words for boy, namely East Frisian boi (“boy, young man”) and West Frisian boai (“boy”). Although the exact etymology is obscure, the English and Frisian forms probably derive from an earlier Anglo-Frisian *bō-ja (“little brother”), a diminutive of the Germanic root *bō- (“brother, male relation”), from Proto-Indo-European *bhā-, *bhāt- (“father, brother”). The root is also found in Flemish boe (“brother”), Norwegian dialectal boa (“brother”), and, through a reduplicated variant *bō-bō-, in Old Norse bófi, Dutch boef “(criminal) knave, rogue”, German Bube (“knave, rogue, boy”). Furthermore, the word may be related to Bōia, an Anglo-Saxon personal name.

In English, the words youth, teenager and adolescent may refer to either male or female. No gender-specific term exists for an intermediate stage between a boy and a man, except “young man”, although the term puberty, for one who reached sexual reproductivity (or the legally assumed age, e.g. 14 for boys, often set lower for girls) without being a legal adult yet, stems from a Latin word for boys only, itself named after the accompanying male body hair, pubes, on face and genital region.
