June 2026 in “Research Square” The study evaluated the hair growth-promoting effects of an emulgel containing extracts of Wedelia chinensis and Cassytha filiformis in rats with testosterone- and stress-induced hair loss. The combined formulation (CF + WC 2%) significantly improved the anagen/telogen ratio and surpassed the effects of individual extracts, indicating enhanced hair regrowth potential. This suggests that the synergistic action of these herbal extracts could be a promising treatment for alopecia, though further research is needed to confirm long-term safety and efficacy in humans.
