A questionable paper which suggests that 5% topical spironolactone is more effective than 0.1% topical finasteride for treating hair loss. It should be taken with a grain of salt due to the journal it was published in.
community Found this research paper showing how males with pattern hair loss show lower levels of iron and/ or Ferritin. Might be helpful to those here asking about nutrition.
Lower levels of Ferritin and iron are linked to male pattern baldness. Checking these levels could provide clinical benefits.
community Update and new paper from Dr tsuji
Hair follicle regenerative therapy is being developed, with clinical trials planned in Japan, potentially allowing for hair cloning and eliminating the need for treatments like finasteride. If successful, the treatment could be available in Japan by 2025, but widespread access and affordability may take longer.
community Why did this recent research paper from professor Tsuji lab in Japan largely go unnoticed by this sub? Isn't this discovery huge? (hair cloning)
A recent discovery in hair cloning identified a previously unknown cell type essential for hair follicle growth, which could potentially make lab-grown hair viable if translated to humans. However, skepticism remains due to past delays and the challenges of replicating results in humans and making the process affordable.
community 5ARi of choice not working yet? Paper Review for efficacy + safety
Dutasteride is more effective than finasteride for hair loss, especially at the crown and midscalp, but both have similar side-effect profiles with low incidence of sexual adverse events. Improvement is measured visually, and significant results may take over 12 months to appear.
