Whole hair strands can reliably measure gamma ray exposure using ESR techniques, but samples should be analyzed quickly or stored in liquid nitrogen.
research Elemental Distribution in Medicinal Plants Commonly Used in Folklore Medicine in Mexico
Most medicinal plants in Mexican folklore have safe element levels, but arsenic exceeds safe limits in almost all.
research Effects of Gamma Rays on the Regeneration of Murine Hair Follicles in the Natural Hair Cycle
Gamma rays did not change hair follicle density but increased white and hypopigmented hairs in mice.

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 Lost density 60% all over scalp in 120 days (4months)
A user lost 60% hair density in 4 months, started finasteride and microneedling, and has greasy, flaky, yellowish scalp. They are awaiting biopsy results, and another user suggested trying ketoconazole shampoo.
community Oral Minoxidil Study of 60 AGA patients
Oral minoxidil treatment increased hair density and shaft caliber in AGA patients. Side effects included hypertrichosis and lower extremity edema, with younger patients experiencing fewer side effects.
community "When comparing 5% minoxidil with 0.60 mm or 1.20 mm needle lengths, Faghihi et al. found that 0.60 mm needle lengths led to significant hair count and diameter increases versus 5% minoxidil, whereas 1.20 mm needle lengths only saw hair count increases versus 5% minoxidil"
Microneedling with 0.6 mm needles combined with 5% minoxidil is more effective for hair count and thickness than minoxidil alone or with 1.2 mm needles. Biweekly microneedling at 0.6 mm depth is recommended for better results in treating androgenetic alopecia.
community Amplifica Sees Positive Results for Hair Loss Treatment - Results Show 15% increase in 60 days!
Amplifica's new injectable treatment for androgenetic alopecia shows a 15% increase in hair thickness and coarseness in 60 days. The treatment is in early human trials and offers a promising alternative to hormone-related hair loss treatments.
