    TLDR The combination of millet seed extract, L-cystine, and calcium pantothenate significantly improved hair growth in women with female pattern hair loss.
    The study utilized the phototrichogram method to evaluate the effectiveness of a combination treatment consisting of millet fruit extract, L-cystine, and calcium pantothenate in promoting hair growth in women with androgenetic alopecia. The in vivo investigation demonstrated that this combination could potentially stimulate hair growth, providing a promising treatment option for female patients suffering from this type of hair loss. The results were presented at the 73rd meeting of the North German Dermatological Society in Potsdam in 2000.
