research 704 Is intrafollicular autophagy an essential mechanism that permits human hair follicles to remain in prolonged anagen in vivo?
Autophagy, a cell recycling process, is crucial for prolonged hair growth and could be a potential target for treating hair growth disorders.
research 1032 Characterization of the human scalp hair follicle microbiome reveals differential spatial distribution, abundance and viability of intrafollicular microbiota and modulation of hair growth and metabolism by staphylococcus epidermidis
Staphylococcus epidermidis affects hair growth and metabolism, suggesting it could help manage hair growth issues.
research Autophagy is essential for maintaining the growth of a human (mini-)organ: Evidence from scalp hair follicle organ culture
Autophagy is important for human hair growth and health.
research Inactivation of autophagy leads to changes in sebaceous gland morphology and function
Autophagy is crucial for normal sebaceous gland function and sebum composition.
research Autophagy critically controls skin inflammation and apoptosis-induced stem cell activation
Autophagy helps control skin inflammation and cancer responses and regulates hair growth by affecting stem cell activity.

5 / 1000+ resultscommunity Dutasteride Isn't Working? Get a Scalp Biopsy NOW
Dutasteride may not be effective for everyone due to underlying issues, suggesting scalp biopsies for further diagnosis. Users discuss using higher doses of dutasteride, topical treatments, minoxidil, and pyrilutamide for hair loss management.
community What’s a better combo: RU + fluridil vs RU + topical spiro vs RU + alfatradiol?
The conversation is about choosing an additional topical treatment for hair loss, with options being fluridil, topical spiro, or alfatradiol, alongside existing treatments like dutasteride, oral minoxidil, latanoprost, and RU58841. Opinions vary on the effectiveness of adding these topicals, with some suggesting RU58841 is sufficient.
community does lowering your prolactin levels regrow hair?
The potential of lowering prolactin levels to regrow hair, with a reference to Bayer's drug HMI 115 which has been indicated as having this effect. Treatments mentioned include Minoxidil and Finasteride, as well as RU58841.
community Tazarotene shows strong standalone hair regrowth potential, not just a Minoxidil enhancer. Backed by VEGF, HF regeneration, and angiogenesis pathways. Here’s why.
Tazarotene shows potential as a standalone treatment for hair regrowth by stimulating new hair follicle formation and promoting angiogenesis, similar to microneedling effects. It can be used topically without minoxidil, but users should start with a low concentration to avoid irritation.
community He used Dutasteride for 20 YEARS: TL;DR Slight gains and largely stable for 20 years.
John has experienced slight hair gains and stability over 20 years using Dutasteride, which is more effective than Finasteride in reducing scalp DHT and maintaining hair. Dutasteride at 0.5mg daily has a similar side effect profile to Finasteride, but at higher doses, it may increase the risk of sexual side effects.
