Balding scalps have more androgen receptors, leading to increased TGF-beta, which causes blood vessel loss and hair follicle miniaturization. Blocking androgen signaling and TGF-beta may help prevent hair loss.
community Is trichogram a good thing for testing genetic hair loss
A dermatologist checked for hereditary hair loss using blood tests and plans to perform a trichogram. The user had slightly low Vitamin D3 levels, and the trichogram may help confirm androgenetic alopecia.
community If You Have DUPA, PLEASE READ THIS: Everyone Should Be Scalp Biopsied
Scalp biopsies are crucial for diagnosing hair loss conditions like Diffuse Unpatterned Alopecia (DUPA) and retrograde hair loss, as treatments like finasteride and dutasteride may not be effective if other conditions are present. Combining PPAR-GAMMA agonists with retinoids could improve treatments for conditions like Lichen Planopilaris.
community Weird Hair Loss Pattern – Worth a Biopsy?
The user is experiencing a strange hair loss pattern despite using dutasteride for 3 years and minoxidil with tretinoin for 1.5 years. They recently added microneedling and are considering a scalp biopsy to understand the cause.
community Scalp tension and thickness of the galea aponeurotica, inflammation and potential treatment pathways
Scalp tension potentially affecting hair loss, and potential treatments for male pattern baldness such as Minoxidil, Finasteride and RU58841. Evidence from a study was discussed which suggests that the cause of MPB lies within the follicle itself and is not dependent on its surrounding environment.
community How is scalp sensitivity even measured?
There are no tests to determine genetic follicle sensitivity for hair loss, and conclusions are based on hypothetical or post-balding observations. Finasteride is mentioned as an easy, consistent treatment option compared to natural treatments.
