5 / 1000+ resultsresearch Chemical Composition and Biological Activities of Essential Oils of Curcuma Species
This review summarizes the volatile components, biological activities, and potential safety concerns of essential oils from various Curcuma species, but reports no new clinical results.
research Hair follicle targeting with curcumin nanocrystals: Influence of the formulation properties on the penetration efficacy
This study found that curcumin nanocrystals efficiently penetrated hair follicles down to the lower infundibulum in an ex-vivo pig ear model, regardless of the gel vehicle used, though passive dermal penetration varied with the vehicle’s skin hydrating properties.
research The Comparison of In Vitro Photosensitizing Efficacy of Curcumin-Loaded Liposomes Following Photodynamic Therapy on Melanoma MUG-Mel2, Squamous Cell Carcinoma SCC-25, and Normal Keratinocyte HaCaT Cells
This study found that curcumin encapsulated in liposomes enhanced photodynamic therapy's effectiveness against skin cancer cells while reducing toxicity to normal human keratinocytes.
research Anti-androgenic effect of sesquiterpenes isolated from the rhizomes of Curcuma aeruginosa Roxb.
In this study, germacrone from Curcuma aeruginosa showed anti-androgenic effects by inhibiting 5α-reductase, suggesting its potential as a lead compound for treating androgen-dependent disorders.
research Development of Provesicular Nanodelivery System of Curcumin as a Safe and Effective Antiviral Agent: Statistical Optimization, In Vitro Characterization, and Antiviral Effectiveness
This study reported that a newly formulated Curcumin-loaded proniosome, named F5, exhibited enhanced antiviral efficacy, stability, and safety when compared to Curcumin alone, and improved the therapeutic performance of Acyclovir by reducing its effective dose against Herpes simplex virus.

5 / 35 resultscommunity what's an effective natural dht blocker other than fin?
Curcumin, found in turmeric, may reduce DHT levels and hair loss, similar to finasteride, but without its side effects. However, natural DHT blockers are generally considered too weak to make a significant difference in hair loss.
community Anti inflammatories as an adjunct treatment
Anti-inflammatories like curcumin, quercetin, and vitamin E may help with hair loss when used alongside treatments like finasteride and dutasteride. Ketoconazole is also noted for reducing scalp inflammation and improving scalp health.
community Things to do besides treatment to see even more regrowth?
The conversation discusses hair regrowth strategies, including using dutasteride, minoxidil, finasteride, dermastamping, soy, curcumin, and possibly castor oil. Suggestions also include increasing dutasteride dosage, using oral minoxidil, topical finasteride, and tretinoin to enhance minoxidil efficacy.
community Can someone please shed some light on natural topicals like castor oil and onion juice
Castor oil may reduce DHT and help with hair growth, while onion juice lacks evidence for effectiveness. Alternatives to natural topicals include RU58841, olive leaf extract, baicalin, and curcuminoids.
community Targeting multiple AGA mechanisms with commonly available substances
The conversation discusses using a multimodal approach to treat androgenic alopecia, including substances like gamma-linolenic acid, DHA, sulforaphane, melatonin, cetirizine, astaxanthin, fisetin, apigenin, curcumin, limonene, genistein, and berberine. Users also mention using ketoconazole, minoxidil, and low-level laser therapy (LLLT) as part of their hair loss treatment regimens.
