Effects of dietary supplements on androgenetic alopecia: a systematic review and network meta-analysis
This systematic review and network meta-analysis evaluated the effectiveness and safety of dietary supplements for treating androgenetic alopecia (AGA) by analyzing 19 randomized controlled trials with 1,658 patients. The study found that supplements like Nutrafol, apple extract, tocotrienols, pumpkin seed oil, and a compound extract of Cistanche and Laminaria significantly improved hair density. Multi-component supplements, standardized plant extracts, and probiotics increased terminal hair density. In blind doctor assessments, several supplements showed higher hair regeneration scores compared to placebo or conventional treatments. All supplements were well-tolerated, suggesting they could be beneficial adjuncts or alternatives to standard AGA treatments. However, further large-scale, high-quality RCTs are needed to confirm these findings.
