Hair loss is linked to cellular physiology and the IGF-1 to TGF-B1 ratio, not just androgen sensitivity. The theory lacks evidence, while finasteride and minoxidil are effective treatments.
community I believe the key for most NW2 to NW3 with no alopecia but more of receding hairline is caused by lack of blood flow and collagen in front of scalp. How do you rebuild collagen? What supplements to add when dermarolling?
Minoxidil helped with hairline regrowth, but stopping it led to hair loss, suggesting circulation issues. Dermarolling, collagen peptides, and oils like castor and rosemary are recommended for improving hair health.
