research Intravenous Transplantation of Human Hair Follicle-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells Ameliorates Trabecular Bone Loss in Osteoporotic Mice

8 citations , March 2022 in “Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology”

This study found that intravenous transplantation of human hair follicle-derived mesenchymal stem cells improved trabecular bone mass in osteoporotic mice by enhancing bone formation and reducing bone resorption.

research HORMONE THERAPIES: SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE BASED ON EVIDENCE AND INDISCRIMINATE USE

December 2025 in “Seven Editora eBooks”

This integrative review found that while hormone therapy, under proper medical supervision, can improve quality of life by treating conditions like muscle and bone mass loss, using these hormones without clinical need poses serious risks to neurological, cardiac, hepatic, renal, and reproductive health.

research Potential adverse effects of long-term testosterone therapy

72 citations , October 1998 in “Baillière's clinical endocrinology and metabolism”

This article discusses the potential effects of exogenous testosterone, highlighting that its impact on prostate cancer progression, cardiovascular health, and behavior remains uncertain and needs further investigation.

research Effects of lifelong testosterone exposure on health and disease using Mendelian randomization

29 citations , October 2020 in “eLife”

This study using Mendelian randomization in UK Biobank data suggests that lifelong increased free testosterone may have mixed effects, including increased bone density and prostate cancer risk, warranting well-powered trials to address uncertainties.

research Bone mineral density in patients with alopecia areata treated with long-term intralesional corticosteroids.

14 citations , February 2013 in “PubMed”

This study found that 50% of patients with patchy alopecia areata who underwent chronic intralesional triamcinolone acetonide therapy had abnormal bone mineral density, suggesting the need for monitoring and preventive measures.

Dutasteride may reduce bone mineral density, but there's no increased risk of osteoporosis or fractures compared to finasteride. Users suggest resistance training to counter potential bone effects.

community Why Fin/Dut Isn't Working for You GPR133: a new hairloss mechanism + Steroid Hair Loss Deep Dive

6 upvotes 1 month ago

Hair loss may be linked to the GPR133 receptor, independent of the androgen receptor pathway. Treatments like finasteride, dutasteride, minoxidil, RU58841, and KX-826 show varying results, with hair loss persisting due to high testosterone and GPR133's role.

community Why not just take the drugs before hair loss?

in Chat 123 upvotes 6 months ago
