Apocrine Sweat Gland Obstruction by Antiperspirants Allowing Transdermal Absorption of Cutaneous Generated Hormones and Pheromones as a Link to the Observed Incidence Rates of Breast and Prostate Cancer in the 20th Century

research Apocrine sweat gland obstruction by antiperspirants allowing transdermal absorption of cutaneous generated hormones and pheromones as a link to the observed incidence rates of breast and prostate cancer in the 20th century

18 citations , March 2009 in “Medical Hypotheses”

This review discusses the potential link between long-term transdermal exposure to sex hormones from antiperspirants and increased breast and prostate cancer rates, calling for further research to confirm this theory.

Development of Optimized Self-Nanoemulsifying Lyophilized Tablets to Improve Finasteride Clinical Pharmacokinetic Behavior

research Development of optimized self-nanoemulsifying lyophilized tablets (SNELTs) to improve finasteride clinical pharmacokinetic behavior

15 citations , November 2017 in “Drug Development and Industrial Pharmacy”

This study found that the optimized finasteride-loaded lyophilized tablets using a self-nanoemulsifying drug delivery system improved bioavailability in human volunteers compared to the marketed finasteride product.

research The Interaction of Hair Fibers with Alkali Bromide Solutions

12 citations , October 1954 in “Textile Research Journal”

This study found that alkali bromide solutions are absorbed into hair depending on salt activity, and the presence of the salt increases water absorption compared to normal conditions.

research Determination of Free Chemical Potential for Finasteride Diffusion through SDS Micelle Suggested as Alternative Living Membrane System

August 2022 in “International journal of membrane science and technology”

This study found that Finasteride may spontaneously diffuse into an SDS-based model cell membrane at a significant rate, with distinct behavior in polar and non-polar solutions.

research Have the facts on topical minoxidil been smoothed over?

May 1987 in “Inpharma (Balgowlah)”

Topical minoxidil may slow hair loss but often doesn't lead to satisfactory hair regrowth and requires ongoing treatment.

community People call companies stupid for making very high concentration Topical Fin solutions but I think they overlook the fact that the actual absorption rate of finasteride varies greatly

in Finasteride/Dutasteride 13 upvotes 2 years ago

The conversation discusses how the absorption rate of topical finasteride varies and is not equivalent to its oral form, with only a small percentage reaching the scalp. It also mentions that minoxidil in high concentrations is used topically because only a small amount is absorbed.

community Oral minoxidil vs massive dosage of topical absorption rate

4 upvotes 5 years ago

Oral minoxidil is generally more effective than topical minoxidil, despite higher side effect risks. Topical minoxidil can achieve higher bloodstream levels in some individuals, but effectiveness depends on conversion and scalp response.

community How long does it to start recovering from hair loss / thinning / super brittle after starting taking huge amounts of iron supplements?

in Transgender 1 upvotes 11 months ago

Iron supplements can help improve hair thinning and brittle skin, but recovery time varies based on individual factors like ferritin levels and absorption rates. Regular blood tests are recommended to monitor ferritin and iron levels.

community Applying Minoxidil right after microneedling, is what I do now

in Microneedling 1 upvotes 9 months ago

The conversation discusses using Minoxidil and Finasteride for hair loss, with a focus on applying Minoxidil after microneedling to enhance absorption. There is also mention of considering oral Minoxidil due to potentially higher absorption rates.

community The rate of Scalp DHT suppression does not reduce hair miniaturization at the same rate

in Finasteride/Dutasteride 46 upvotes 1 year ago

Reducing scalp DHT doesn't directly correlate with preventing hair miniaturization, as different follicles have varying sensitivity levels. Dutasteride at 0.5 mg and 2.5 mg shows minimal visual difference in hair regrowth, with side effects being a consideration for higher doses.
