5 / 1000+ resultsresearch Common Questions and Misconceptions About Creatine Supplementation: What Does the Scientific Evidence Really Show?
Creatine is safe, not a steroid, and boosts muscle and performance without causing kidney damage or hair loss.
research Creatine Phosphokinase Levels and Isotretinoin Therapy
Isotretinoin can raise CPK levels, so patients need monitoring, especially before surgery.

5 / 501 resultscommunity Creatine, my hair loss, and my DHT levels. An anecdote with lab values.
Increased hair loss after starting a 10g daily creatine regimen, possibly linked to elevated DHT levels despite dutasteride use. Stopping creatine reduced shedding, but the exact cause is uncertain, with discussions on exercise and lifestyle impacts.
community Stop Complaining about Creatine. You're just fixated on shedding.
Creatine is unlikely to cause hair loss as it does not raise DHT levels. Hair loss is more likely due to genetics, medications, or lifestyle changes.
community Creatine Does Not Increase DHT And Does Not Cause Hair Loss - Randomized Controlled Trial
Creatine does not increase DHT levels or cause hair loss. Personal experiences vary, but scientific evidence shows no link between creatine and hair loss.
community My good/bad experience with Creatine
Creatine may cause increased hair shedding in some individuals, especially those with androgenetic alopecia (AGA), despite its physical performance benefits. Many users report stopping creatine to reduce hair loss, while others believe the effects are anecdotal or due to other factors like increased physical activity.
community 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.
