GlossaryHair Growth-Related Genes

specific genes that regulate hair follicle development and cycling

Hair Growth-Related Genes are specific genes that play a crucial role in regulating the development, cycling, and maintenance of hair follicles. These genes influence various biological processes such as cell proliferation, differentiation, and signaling pathways that are essential for hair growth. Mutations or variations in these genes can lead to conditions like alopecia or other hair growth disorders.

community Bloodflow? Does it affect hair growth?

in Question 23 upvotes 6 years ago

Hair loss is primarily caused by genetic sensitivity to DHT, not lifestyle factors like diet or exercise. Treatments like Minoxidil and Finasteride can help, but it's important to consult a dermatologist to determine the best approach for individual cases.

community Intermittent fasting reduces hair growth?!? :(

in Research/Science 34 upvotes 1 year ago

Intermittent fasting may inhibit hair growth by triggering a stress response that affects hair-follicle stem cells. Some users believe genetics and DHT play a larger role in hair loss, and treatments like Minoxidil and Finasteride are mentioned as ineffective for some.

community The closest thing to a cure before hair cloning or genetic via?

in Treatment 9 upvotes 3 years ago

The conversation discusses using finasteride or dutasteride to reduce DHT, CosmeRNA to target androgen receptors, and Minoxidil as a vasodilator for hair growth. The regimen aims to maintain hair by addressing DHT-AR ratio and continuous Minoxidil use.

community 6+ Months of Shedding After Switching to Oral Minoxidil and Dutasteride — Is This Normal?

in General 88 upvotes 1 year ago

The user switched from topical to oral minoxidil and started taking dutasteride, experiencing continuous shedding for over six months. They are concerned about the quality of the oral minoxidil and unsure if new vellus hair growth is related to the treatment.

community Why is dht bad for scalp hair but good for hair on the rest of body?

in Satire 109 upvotes 3 years ago

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.
