research Efficacy and safety of oral spironolactone for female pattern hair loss in premenopausal women: a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group pilot study
Oral spironolactone effectively promotes hair growth in premenopausal women but may cause irregular menstruation.
research Psychological Effect, Pathophysiology, and Management of Androgenetic Alopecia in Men
Minoxidil and finasteride can slow hair loss and stimulate regrowth, but won't restore all lost hair or reverse complete baldness.
research Molecular interactions of progesterone derivatives with 5α-reductase types 1 and 2 and androgen receptors
Certain progesterone derivatives can inhibit enzymes and reduce androgenic activity, potentially affecting prostate growth.
