5 / 652 resultscommunity Does Creatine Cause Hair Loss? I Did the Science.
Creatine at 2.5 g/day did not affect DHT levels in the user, suggesting it may not cause hair loss through DHT. The user used minoxidil during the experiment but did not use finasteride or other DHT-reducing medications.
community We already know how to permanently fix hair loss. The science is done. The only thing missing is the funding to run one experiment.
A permanent hair loss solution could involve reprogramming hair follicles to resist DHT using mRNA and siRNA. However, high costs, safety concerns, and the pharmaceutical industry's preference for ongoing treatments over one-time cures are major obstacles, with finasteride and minoxidil remaining standard treatments.
community Just a reminder: disregard all the anecdotal evidence, the science is clear, creatine doesn't cause or worsen hair loss
Creatine does not cause or worsen hair loss, despite some anecdotal reports of hair thinning. The discussion emphasizes that these reports are not supported by scientific evidence.
