research Changes in Bone Mineral Density in Women with Early-Onset Androgenetic Alopecia and Their Correlations with Hair-Loss Stages: A Cross-Sectional Study
Women with early-onset baldness should be checked for early bone loss, but bone density doesn't change with baldness severity.
research Intravenous Transplantation of Human Hair Follicle-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells Ameliorates Trabecular Bone Loss in Osteoporotic Mice
Human hair follicle stem cells can help treat bone loss in osteoporosis.
research Effects of Ionizing Radiation on Murine Gene Expression in Skin and Bone
Early changes in skin gene expression can predict later bone mass loss after radiation exposure.
research The Role of R-Spondins and Their Receptors in Bone Metabolism
R-spondins and their receptors help increase bone growth and may be used to treat bone loss diseases.
research Calcium and Vitamin D Supplementation With and Without Collagen on Bone Density and Skin Elasticity in Menopausal Women—A Randomized Controlled Study
Collagen with calcium and vitamin D improves bone health, skin elasticity, and reduces hair loss in menopausal women.

5 / 220 resultscommunity Hair loss research focused on chemistry for decades because we misunderstood the mechanics of growth.
Hair growth relies on mechanical forces, not just chemicals, with tissue acting like a motor. Minoxidil and finasteride help, but maintaining tissue elasticity and addressing mechanical issues are essential.
community is the reason why people are in denial about prolactin causing hair loss is the fact that prolactin is one of the hardest things to lower?
High prolactin levels can cause hair loss, and finasteride may increase prolactin. Cabergoline or Vitamin B6 might lower prolactin, but combining them with finasteride requires caution.
community Did UCLA Just Cure Baldness? Check this Out!
UCLA's PP405 shows promise in reactivating dormant hair follicles for hair loss treatment but is still in clinical trials. Minoxidil and finasteride remain common treatments until PP405 becomes available.
community Anyone here used spirolactone/cyproterone acetate/bicalutamide?
The conversation discusses the use of spironolactone, cyproterone acetate, and bicalutamide for hair loss, with concerns about side effects like gynecomastia and depression. Topical spironolactone is considered safe for men and effective when combined with regular treatments.
community Is this broscience? From More Plates, More Dates
The conversation discusses whether finasteride's reduction of DHT and increase in scalp testosterone contribute to hair follicle miniaturization. Some participants argue testosterone does not cause miniaturization, while others suggest that even with reduced DHT, other androgens like testosterone may still contribute to hair loss.
