Steroid-binding globulins have important roles beyond just transporting steroids.
research Distinctive features of steroid hormone metabolism in female patients with androgenic alopecia
Women with hair thinning have disrupted steroid hormone levels, but this doesn't often show as other health issues. More research is needed on hormone balance in this condition.
research [Analysis of steroids and binding proteins in the blood of women with androgenetic alopecia].
Women with androgenetic alopecia have normal levels of most blood steroids and binding proteins, but higher dehydroepiandrosterone. Some also have low "sex hormone-binding globulin" and "corticosteroide-binding globulin" capacity, and high "free androgen index" and "free cortisol index". Diane treatment can normalize these levels and improve hair conditions.
research Sex steroid hormones are associated with mortality in COVID-19 patients
Low testosterone and SHBG levels are linked to higher COVID-19 death rates.
research Steroid inhibitors of androgen-potentiated actions on skin
Certain hormones can reduce skin oil and hair growth, potentially helping treat acne and excessive hair in women.

Green tea extract and soy isoflavones may help with hair loss by inhibiting DHT and providing additional health benefits. Combining these with finasteride and possibly using nizoral shampoo could enhance effectiveness in managing hair loss.
community Smoking – Why Dutasteride may not be working
Dutasteride works for most men, but some may experience worsening due to reasons like shedding, paranoia, non-androgenic alopecia, genetic variations, or smoking. Smoking can increase scalp DHT levels and damage follicles.
community What an amazing time to be alive
The post discusses a user's experience with hair loss treatments, specifically topical finasteride, minoxidil, and micro-needling, and their plan to switch to oral versions and add Dutasteride. The conversation includes various responses, with some users sharing their own experiences and side effects, and others expressing desire for a more permanent hair loss solution.
community Be careful when switching from Finasteride to Dutasteride because for more efficacy.
Switching from finasteride to dutasteride may be more effective for hair regrowth due to dutasteride's stronger enzyme inhibition, but combining both drugs could enhance results. Some users report better outcomes with dutasteride, while others recommend a gradual transition to prevent potential hair loss.
community "Creatine causes hair loss" myth debunked once and for all
Creatine does not directly cause hair loss but may increase DHT levels, potentially worsening hair loss in those predisposed to male pattern baldness. Users have mixed experiences, with some reporting increased shedding and others seeing no effect.
