Epidermal growth factor helps hair stem cells grow by activating specific cell pathways.
research Hair Eruption Initiates and Commensal Skin Microbiota Aggravate Adverse Events of Anti-EGFR Therapy
Anti-EGFR therapy can cause skin issues, but FGF7 treatment might help.
research Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor as a Key Regulator of Immune Privilege
EGFR is crucial for preventing hair follicle inflammation and hair loss.
research Scarring Hair Follicle Destruction Is Driven by the Collapse of EGFR-Protected JAK-STAT1-Sensitive Stem Cell Immune Privilege
A protein called EGFR protects hair follicle stem cells, and when it's disrupted, hair follicles can be damaged, but blocking certain pathways can restore hair growth.
research JAK-STAT1 as Therapeutic Target for EGFR Deficiency-Associated Inflammation and Scarring Alopecia
Targeting JAK-STAT1 can reduce inflammation and promote hair growth in conditions linked to EGFR deficiency.

5 / 6 resultscommunity 25M | 10 years of gradual hair loss | Minoxidil user | Looking for input on treatment optimization before HT
A 25-year-old male with 10 years of hair loss is using minoxidil and considering adding finasteride or dutasteride, possibly with microneedling, to improve hair regrowth before a hair transplant. Community members suggest starting a DHT blocker immediately, considering oral minoxidil, and addressing low vitamin D and HDL levels.
community Medications that cause extra hair growth
The post discusses the side effects of various drugs causing excess hair growth, questioning why only minoxidil is used in the hair loss industry. The conversation includes users sharing their experiences and concerns about potential side effects of these drugs, with some preferring baldness over potential health risks.
community Creatine is the opposite of minoxidil !
Creatine may counteract minoxidil's hair growth effects by closing potassium ATP channels, potentially leading to hair loss in predisposed individuals. Despite anecdotal reports, there is no conclusive evidence linking creatine to hair loss.
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 Dutasteride broked my liver (maybe)
A user shared their experience with high cholesterol, glucose, and potential metabolic syndrome after using Finasteride and Dutasteride for hair loss. They plan to improve their health with diet and exercise before considering medication.
