learn Finasteride

Does hair strand thickness decrease in men with androgenic alopecia? Can finasteride help restore it? Androgenic alopecia thins hair strands by miniaturizing follicles. The pivotal finasteride trials (1,553 men, 1 mg/day, two years) report increased hair counts and improved assessed appearance, but they measured density, not the diameter of individual strands, so the effect on thickness itself is not established.

signaling protein that, when suppressed, may grow hair by reducing inflammation and stem cell loss

learn Overview

learn Vitamin B1

Thinning hair over time? It might not just be genetics: lack of B1 and B2 could be silently working against you. There is no verified human trial showing that B1 or B2 deficiency causes thinning hair or that correcting it regrows hair; a 2019 review concludes the role of micronutrients in hair loss is real but unclear and still needs controlled trials.

learn zinc PCA

Can a zinc deficiency directly cause hair thinning or increased shedding? Studies link low serum zinc to diffuse shedding and alopecia areata, and severe deficiency states cause hair loss that reverses when zinc is replaced. The evidence is mostly observational, the one supplementation study was small and uncontrolled, and zinc is not a treatment for pattern hair loss.

learn Glycerin

Does topical glycerin have any effect on hair thickness or follicle function? Topical glycerin primarily hydrates hair but does not increase thickness or follicle function.

learn Dutasteride

Dutasteride side effects: what the label and studies actually report The Avodart label reports impotence in 4.7% and decreased libido in 3.0% of men in the first six months (1.7% and 1.4% on placebo), with new reports falling after month six; those figures come from BPH trials in older men, and the hair-loss trials in younger men run only six months. The label and studies also flag a PSA drop of about half, a small rise in high-grade prostate cancer in one trial, an observational link to depression, and sexual effects that the label says may persist after stopping.
