5 / 60 resultscommunity I literally can’t find any evidence of sulfotransferase being upregulated by microneedling or retinoids like tretinoin
Microneedling and tretinoin may enhance minoxidil absorption for hair loss, but evidence on their effectiveness is limited. Iron supplements and broccoli sprouts are suggested for enzyme activation, but their impact on hair is unclear.
community Androgenetic alopecia is a skin disease: DHT-mediated skin disorders
Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) impacts various skin conditions, including Androgenetic alopecia and seborrheic dermatitis, by causing overactivity in sebaceous glands. Topical medications Tacrolimus and Clobetasol can reduce these inflammatory conditions, and treatments like RU58841, Minoxidil, and Finasteride may also be beneficial.
community Supposedly dairy contains precursors to DHT that are already 5a-reduced and convert to DHT independent of 5a-reductase inhibition
Dairy may contain DHT precursors that could affect hair loss and prostate health, with some users noting reduced hair shedding after eliminating dairy. Individual responses to dairy and DHT blockers vary, with some attributing hair health to diet changes and others seeing no impact.
community Can liver problems be associated with response to the oral minoxidil?
Liver problems may reduce the effectiveness of oral minoxidil due to impaired SULT1A1 enzyme activity, which is crucial for converting minoxidil to its active form. This reduction in enzyme function can significantly decrease the drug's effectiveness in promoting hair growth.
community Minoxidil is a 5ar inhibitor according to research
Minoxidil may inhibit androgen receptors and affect hormonal pathways, potentially explaining its effectiveness in treating androgenetic alopecia (AGA). Users discuss its varying effectiveness on scalp versus facial hair and note fewer side effects with topical use compared to oral.
