5 / 58 resultscommunity Study on Sugar Intake on Male Pattern Hair Loss
Excessive sugar and high-fat diets are linked to male pattern hair loss, with sweet beverages being a significant factor. Moderation in diet is advised, as diet alone may not fully prevent hair loss due to other factors like DHT sensitivity.
community A concise, easy-to-understand post on Androgenic Alopecia theory and its practical applications
The mechanism of Androgenic Alopecia and practical applications of treatments like Minoxidil, Finasteride, RU58841, dermarolling, scalp massages, anti-fungals, progesterone, estrogen, PPAR-γ activators, reducing oxidative stress, and scalp exercises. It explains why DHT is important in AA and how other factors might be involved such as hypoxia, increased DKK-1 expression, morphological changes to the scalp, skull growth during childhood/puberty, and blood flow.
community Shouldn’t it be impossible for dutasteride to make hair loss worse?
Dutasteride is unlikely to worsen hair loss; shedding is often temporary. Other factors like inconsistent use, placebo effect, or additional treatments may influence perceived results.
community Why do people dismiss laser therapy quickly saying that it doesn’t have strong data yet happily apply microneedling which also lacks strong data
Microneedling is preferred over laser therapy for hair loss because it is cheaper and reportedly effective, especially with minoxidil. Laser therapy is seen as costly and less effective.
community Bile Acid-Mediated DHT Dysregulation Hypothesis
Elevated bile acids can inhibit the enzyme AKR1C2, leading to increased DHT levels, which may accelerate hair loss in those predisposed to androgenetic alopecia. Treatments mentioned include topical minoxidil and finasteride.
