5 / 1000+ resultsresearch New frontiers in human hair follicle (neuro‐)endocrinology
Human scalp hair follicles can produce and respond to several hormones, affecting hair growth and pigmentation.
research (Neuro-)endocrinology of epithelial hair follicle stem cells
Hormones and neuroendocrine factors control hair growth and color, and more research could lead to new hair treatment options.
research Inflammation in androgenetic alopecia and hair loss: linking neurosciences-endocrinology-dermatology
Hair loss in men may be caused by inflammation triggered by hormones, and treatments reducing inflammation could potentially promote hair growth.
research Deep Hair Phenomics: Implications in Endocrinology, Development, and Aging
A new tool can analyze hair to detect changes due to hormones, genetics, and aging.
research 4th Intercontinental Meeting of Hair Research Societies 2004 The "World of Hair"

5 / 47 resultscommunity Why is dht bad for scalp hair but good for hair on the rest of body?
The conversation discusses why DHT (dihydrotestosterone) negatively affects scalp hair but promotes growth elsewhere on the body. Various opinions include genetic predispositions, differences in hair follicle reactions to DHT, and the potential role of Omega-3 in reducing inflammation and promoting hair health.
community Having androgen receptor density and sensitivity at wrong f*ing place
The conversation discusses hair loss treatments, focusing on the use of topical minoxidil, microneedling, finasteride, and dutasteride, while debating the role of testosterone and DHT in hair loss. It also touches on the potential liver health impacts of these treatments and the genetic sensitivity of hair follicles to androgens.
community Why do we have head hair in first place if we evolved to start losing it in some cases as soon as puberty hits
Hair loss is influenced by genetics and sensitivity to hormones like DHT. Treatments like Minoxidil and finasteride are commonly used, and baldness persists as it doesn't affect reproductive success.
community 57% increased chance of pattern hair loss independently associated with the consumption of sugary beverages in men (p<0.001) Pt 2
Sugary beverages increase the risk of pattern hair loss in men by 57%. Treatments discussed include Minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841.
community Creatine's effect on Hair Loss and DHT
A 21-year-old male managed to control his hair loss using Nizoral, RU58841, and finasteride, but experienced increased scalp itchiness after starting creatine, which subsided upon stopping creatine. Users shared mixed experiences on whether creatine affects hair loss, with some reporting negative effects and others seeing no change or defending its benefits.
