community New and Interesting HairLoss Studies/Papers/Reviews in Treatment 42 upvotes 6 years ago Hair loss treatments discussed include Dutasteride with Ketoconazole, tissue engineering strategies, and androgenetic alopecia therapies. Massage doubles follicular retention, improving treatment effectiveness.
community UPDATE: The theory that explains everything. Please help me make this big! in Research/Science 444 upvotes 5 years ago Hair loss theory involves 3alpha-hydroxysteroid reductase (3AHD) converting DHT to androstenol. Discussion explores potential treatments and encourages more research.
