GlossaryCarcinogenesis

process where normal cells become cancerous through genetic mutations

Carcinogenesis, also known as cancer development or oncogenesis, is the process by which normal cells transform into cancer cells. This involves a series of genetic mutations and epigenetic changes that disrupt normal cell regulation, leading to uncontrolled cell growth and the potential to invade other tissues.

The treatment for androgenetic alopecia involves using finasteride and minoxidil with intense exercise and cold exposure to boost metabolism and reduce androgenic effects, potentially leading to hair regrowth. This approach may activate biological pathways for improved hair and overall health.
