research Identification of a New Plant Extract for Androgenic Alopecia Treatment Using a Non-Radioactive Human Hair Dermal Papilla Cell-Based Assay
A new plant extract from Avicennia marina could potentially be used to treat common hair loss.
research Androgenic Alopecia: A Counterproductive Outcome of the Anabolic Effect of Androgens
Male pattern baldness is an unintended side effect of the body's use of androgens for muscle growth, especially in those genetically prone to it.
research The Potential of Androgenic Alopecia Management from Plant Derivatives
Plant extracts like Avicennia marina, Boehmeria nipononivea, and Camellia sinensis could potentially treat hair loss with fewer side effects than synthetic drugs.
research Platelet Rich Plasma in Androgenic Alopecia in Male and Female Patients: A Myth, A Prospective Study

community minoxidil only to maintain hair?
Minoxidil alone may not stop hair loss. Finasteride is recommended for androgenic alopecia, as minoxidil doesn't prevent DHT from miniaturizing hair follicles.
community any news about DUPA (Diffuse unpatterned alopecia)?
The conversation discusses diffuse unpatterned alopecia (DUPA) and its possible causes, including sensitivity to DHT, not being androgenic alopecia, being diffuse alopecia areata, or hormonal issues. Treatments mentioned include topical melatonin, Clobetasol Propionate for alopecia areata, and the lack of results from using finasteride, dutasteride, and minoxidil.
community Switch from fin to dut and its worse
Switching from finasteride to dutasteride can worsen hair loss for some men due to increased testosterone levels. Topical treatments like RU58841 and Pyrilutamide are suggested to counteract these effects, but individual responses vary.
community Testosterone in Reference Range Doesn't Cause Hair Loss
Testosterone within the normal range does not significantly contribute to male pattern baldness (MPB); DHT is the main factor that can be controlled. Genetics play a crucial role in hair loss, and treatments like finasteride and dutasteride, which block DHT, can help despite potentially raising testosterone levels.
