community The theory that explains everything. Please help me make this big!

in Research/Science 2446 upvotes 5 years ago

The post and conversation are about the role of the enzyme 3alpha-hydroxysteroid reductase in hair loss and the potential of compounds like procyanidin B2 and sulforaphane to boost its activity for hair regrowth. Further research is needed to develop effective treatments based on this theory.

Compressed part of research of theory of androgenic/anabolitic balance. AGA h-responders analytic. Theory of physio-metabolitic method of anti AGA treatment

community Compressed part of research of theory of androgenic/anabolitic balance. AGA h-responders analytic. Theory of physio-metabolitic method of anti AGA treatment

The treatment for androgenetic alopecia involves using finasteride and minoxidil with intense exercise and cold exposure to boost metabolism and reduce androgenic effects, potentially leading to hair regrowth. This approach may activate biological pathways for improved hair and overall health.

community Foods with sufficient procyanidin b2?

in Treatment 5 upvotes 5 years ago

Hair loss discussion includes treatments like Minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841. Conversation focuses on foods with sufficient procyanidin b2, such as dark chocolate and apples, and the required dosage.

community Broccoli supplement (Sulforaphane) for better Minox results?

in Minoxidil 4 upvotes 3 years ago

Broccoli or sulforaphane supplements are unlikely to improve Minoxidil results due to the need for an unrealistically large dose. Tretinoin, micro-needling, and low-dose oral Minoxidil may be more effective for those lacking the necessary enzyme in the scalp.

community Looks like a real cure to the root of baldness (DHT-induced senescence) was proven earlier this year

in Research/Science 739 upvotes 3 years ago

A study that outlines the full model for androgenic alopecia (AGA) which links DHT to cellular senescence in dermal papilla cells, and suggests black chokeberry as a source of cyanidin 3-O-arabinoside polyphenol with potential anti-oxidant properties that could reverse this process. The post encourages reaching out to experts in anti-aging and longevity to research treatments involving the polyphenol.
