learn Overview

learn Stemoxydine

chemical from L'Oreal that encourages hair to enter growth phase

learn Saw Palmetto

a natural and far less effective alternative to Finasteride

Is saw palmetto good for androgenetic alopecia or only for mild hair loss? Saw palmetto may help with androgenetic alopecia, not just mild hair loss.

learn Mesotherapy

technique to inject very small amounts of beneficial chemicals into the scalp

learn Epidermal Growth Factor

learn Finasteride

Does hair strand thickness decrease in men with androgenic alopecia? Can finasteride help restore it? Androgenic alopecia thins hair strands by miniaturizing follicles. The pivotal finasteride trials (1,553 men, 1 mg/day, two years) report increased hair counts and improved assessed appearance, but they measured density, not the diameter of individual strands, so the effect on thickness itself is not established.

learn Cetirizine

Is topical cetirizine effective for androgenetic alopecia in women? Topical cetirizine is not an approved product and its use for female-pattern hair loss is off-label. The evidence is one small unblinded pilot study in mixed-sex patients and one randomized trial in 66 women where cetirizine was added to minoxidil; it is unproven on its own.

learn Fluridil

Is Fluridil only for men with androgenetic alopecia, or can women use it too? The only published clinical study of fluridil enrolled 43 men, so its use in women is untested rather than established; women considering it should talk to a doctor, and it is not advised in pregnancy or breastfeeding because no reproductive-safety data exists.

learn SCUBE3

Can SCUBE3 help people with androgenetic alopecia, or is it meant for other types of hair loss? SCUBE3 is not currently proven to help with androgenetic alopecia.
