Using spirulina and chlorella to boost ferritin and iron levels reduced hair shedding by more than half in a month. The user found these natural supplements more effective than regular iron tablets for hair growth.
The user observed that stopping nicotine and caffeine improved their scalp health while using oral finasteride. However, relapsing with caffeine and nicotine caused scalp tightness and inflammation.
Scientists have grown natural-looking hair from stem cells, potentially revolutionizing hair growth treatments. Concerns include cost, DHT resistance, and the need for future procedures.
