5 / 1000+ resultsresearch Association of Epidemiological and Biochemical Factors with Premature Graying of Hair: A Case-Control Study
Genetics and nutritional deficiencies are key factors in premature graying of hair.
research A Comprehensive Review of Biochemical Factors in Herbs and Their Constituent Compounds in Experimental Studies on Alopecia
Herbs might help with hair loss, but more research is needed to confirm their safety and effectiveness.
research Epidemiological and Biochemical Factors (Serum Ferritin and Vitamin D) Associated with Premature Hair Graying in the Egyptian Population
Low iron levels are linked to premature graying of hair, but vitamin D levels are not.
research A Study of Biochemical Factors and Knowledge, Attitude, and Practice in Patients With Premature Graying of Hair
Premature graying of hair is linked to vitamin D and B12 deficiencies, thyroid issues, iron imbalance, stress, and lifestyle habits, and affects quality of life.
research Study of Biochemical Factors and Knowledge, Attitude, Practice in Patients of Premature Greying of Hair
Low Vitamin D, Vitamin B12, and iron levels, as well as thyroid issues, are strongly linked to premature greying of hair, which also negatively affects quality of life.

5 / 28 resultscommunity Scalp tension and thickness of the galea aponeurotica, inflammation and potential treatment pathways
Scalp tension potentially affecting hair loss, and potential treatments for male pattern baldness such as Minoxidil, Finasteride and RU58841. Evidence from a study was discussed which suggests that the cause of MPB lies within the follicle itself and is not dependent on its surrounding environment.
community A concise, easy-to-understand post on Androgenic Alopecia theory and its practical applications
The mechanism of Androgenic Alopecia and practical applications of treatments like Minoxidil, Finasteride, RU58841, dermarolling, scalp massages, anti-fungals, progesterone, estrogen, PPAR-γ activators, reducing oxidative stress, and scalp exercises. It explains why DHT is important in AA and how other factors might be involved such as hypoxia, increased DKK-1 expression, morphological changes to the scalp, skull growth during childhood/puberty, and blood flow.
community Shouldn’t it be impossible for dutasteride to make hair loss worse?
Dutasteride is unlikely to worsen hair loss; shedding is often temporary. Other factors like inconsistent use, placebo effect, or additional treatments may influence perceived results.
community Bile Acid-Mediated DHT Dysregulation Hypothesis
Elevated bile acids can inhibit the enzyme AKR1C2, leading to increased DHT levels, which may accelerate hair loss in those predisposed to androgenetic alopecia. Treatments mentioned include topical minoxidil and finasteride.
community NMN Promotes Cell Proliferation and Hair Growth by Reducing Oxidative Stress
NMN shows promise in promoting hair growth by reducing oxidative stress and weakening androgens. It may be a beneficial addition to hair loss treatments like Minoxidil and Finasteride.
