research Visualizing Severity of Alopecia Tool (SALT) scores in the clinical setting using patient images from a clinical trial
The study helps doctors use patient images to understand and apply SALT scores for treating severe alopecia areata.
research Using qualitative methods to establish the clinically meaningful threshold for treatment success for the Severity of Alopecia Tool (SALT) score
Achieving 80% or more scalp hair regrowth is considered a successful treatment for significant hair loss.
research Evaluation of SALT score severity in correlation with trichoscopic findings in alopecia areata: a study of 303 patients
Trichoscopy helps better understand and manage alopecia areata, improving patient outcomes.
research The relation between the severity of androgenetic alopecia and cardiovascular atherosclerosis measured via carotid intima-media thickness and the syntax score
Severe hair loss (androgenetic alopecia) is linked to higher risk of heart disease (cardiovascular atherosclerosis).
research Associations Between Iron Metabolism and Obstructive Sleep Apnea Severity in Female and Male Individuals With Self‐Reported Androgenetic Alopecia: A Propensity‐Score Matching Analysis From the EPISONO Database
Iron levels are linked to sleep apnea severity, especially in women with hair loss.

5 / 1000+ resultscommunity The Real Cause Of Androgenetic Alopecia
Androgenetic alopecia is caused by DHT affecting hair growth. Finasteride and minoxidil are used to manage hair loss by blocking DHT and promoting hair growth.
community My Theory Regarding a Cause and Cure for Androgenetic Alopecia
Hair loss theory suggests imbalance between Vitamin D Receptor (VDR) and Androgen Receptor (AR) activation. Proposed treatment includes upregulating VDR, downregulating AR, and improving mitochondrial health.
community DHT Harms Scalp Microbiome: DHT Itch is REAL
Increased Malassezia and Cutibacterium in the scalp microbiome are linked to higher sebum production and inflammation in androgenetic alopecia (AGA). Treatments include ciclopirox shampoo, benzoyl peroxide shampoo, clobetasol propionate, calcipotriol, minoxidil, finasteride, and dutasteride.
community If You Have DUPA, PLEASE READ THIS: Everyone Should Be Scalp Biopsied
Scalp biopsies are crucial for diagnosing hair loss conditions like Diffuse Unpatterned Alopecia (DUPA) and retrograde hair loss, as treatments like finasteride and dutasteride may not be effective if other conditions are present. Combining PPAR-GAMMA agonists with retinoids could improve treatments for conditions like Lichen Planopilaris.
community A topical antiandrogen is very necessary to add to the stack, finastride/Dutastride aren't enough to move the needle.
User added RU and pyrilutamide for hair growth and noticed more baby hairs. Others suggest sticking with fin and min, while some discuss the user's self-image and hair loss severity.
