research Adrenal and Gonadal Activity, Androgen Concentrations, and Adult Height Outcomes in Boys With Silver-Russell Syndrome

1 citations , December 2019 in “Frontiers in endocrinology”

This study found that high prepubertal and pubertal androgen levels, originating from both adrenal and gonadal secretion, were negatively associated with adult height outcomes in males with Silver-Russell syndrome.

research Qiviut cortisol reflects hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis activity in muskoxen (Ovibos moschatus)

7 citations , May 2021 in “General and comparative endocrinology”

This study concluded that qiviut cortisol can be used as a measure of HPA axis activity in muskoxen, with hair growth phase and body region affecting cortisol levels.

Involvement of Neurosteroids in the Control of Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Adrenal Axis Activity in Pregnant Sheep Under Basal and Stressful Conditions

research Involvement of neurosteroids in the control of hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis activity in pregnant sheep under basal and stressful conditions

4 citations , August 2021 in “Theriogenology”

This study found that blocking neurosteroid synthesis in pregnant sheep increased HPA axis activity, particularly under stress, suggesting neurosteroids help modulate stress response.

research Androgenic Activity in Autism

76 citations , November 1997 in “The American journal of psychiatry”

This study found an association between abnormally high plasma testosterone concentrations and aggressive behaviors in certain autistic individuals.

community Sugar and Hair loss connections

in Research/Science 41 upvotes 1 year ago

High sugar diets may worsen hair loss by increasing 5α-reductase activity and androgen levels, especially in women with PCOS. A low sugar diet might reduce scalp DHT levels, similar to finasteride, but genetics also significantly influence hair loss.

community Increased adipose tissue (being overweight) in males may increase likelyhood of finasterde side effects

in Research/Science 29 upvotes 2 years ago

Being overweight may increase finasteride side effects due to higher aromatase activity converting testosterone to estradiol. Maintaining a healthy weight could reduce these side effects.

community The ending of alopecia? Corticosterone inhibits GAS6 to govern hair follicle stem-cell quiescence

63 upvotes 4 years ago

Corticosterone inhibits GAS6, affecting hair follicle stem-cell activity, with potential implications for stress-related hair loss. Ashwagandha and Vitamin K are suggested for reducing cortisol, but their effectiveness is debated.

community Thoughts about ORAL ketoconazole? (pills)

8 months ago

Oral ketoconazole is discussed as a potential hair loss treatment, but it poses significant health risks like liver damage and adrenal insufficiency. Users suggest safer alternatives like topical anti-androgens or spironolactone, emphasizing the importance of consulting a specialist.

community Is this true? It can be a major breakthrough

1008 upvotes 4 months ago

Deoxyribose sugar gel may stimulate hair regrowth similarly to minoxidil by enhancing blood supply and follicle activity. Human trials are necessary, and current products have mixed results.
