research Water Distribution in Human Hair Microstructure Elucidated by Spin Contrast Variation Small-Angle Neutron Scattering

1 citations, June 2023 in “Journal of applied crystallography”

The technique showed that human hair has two main parts, with 68% being rigid and the rest flexible, and water swelling affects its structure.

research Aromatic C-Nitrosation of a Bioactive Molecule: Nitrosation of Minoxidil

8 citations, January 2011 in “Organic and Biomolecular Chemistry”

Minoxidil reacts to nitrosation 7 times more than phenol, mainly due to its -NH₂ groups, leading to the creation of N-nitrosominoxidil.

research George Ernest Rogers 1927–2021

June 2023 in “Historical records of Australian science/Historical Records of Australian Science”

George Ernest Rogers was a notable scientist who made important discoveries about hair and wool proteins.

research In Vitro and In Vivo Structure-Activity Relationships of Novel Androgen Receptor Ligands with Multiple Substituents in the B-Ring

20 citations, September 2005 in “Endocrinology”

Certain changes to the B-ring of androgen receptor ligands can increase their effectiveness for potential treatments of muscle and bone conditions.

research Change of Cell Membrane Complex of a Hair Fiber Caused by Hair Damage

January 2005 in “Seibutsu Butsuri/Seibutsu butsuri”

Chemical treatments damage hair more than UV exposure, making it thinner and less flexible.

community 57% increased chance of pattern hair loss independently associated with the consumption of sugary beverages in men (p<0.001) Pt 2

in Research/Science 479 upvotes 7 months ago

Sugary beverages increase the risk of pattern hair loss in men by 57%. Treatments discussed include Minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841.

community Verteporfin and Microneedling

in Treatments 8 months ago

Clinical studies by Dr. Barghouthi and Dr. Bloxham indicate that Verteporfin, when used with FUE and FUT hair transplantation methods, shows promise in hair follicle regeneration and minimal scarring due to its ability to inhibit Yes-associated protein (YAP). Microneedling at depths of 3-3.5mm, combined with Verteporfin, could potentially reactivate dormant follicles, although the optimal dosage and application method are still under investigation. Concerns remain about the DHT sensitivity of regenerated follicles, highlighting the need for further research to optimize trauma levels and Verteporfin concentrations to achieve effective and scar-free hair regeneration.

community Long term finasteride users; Did you notice any improvement after 2 years?

in Finasteride/Dutasteride 14 upvotes 1 year ago

Long term Finasteride users and whether or not they have noticed improvements after two years of use, with other treatments such as Minoxidil and dermarolling also discussed. Some replies suggest that improvement is possible even beyond the two year mark while others caution against believing studies backed by the Post-Finasteride Foundation.

community Should I dedicate my university studies to solving hair loss?

in Research/Science 373 upvotes 2 years ago

A 20 year old male who is balding and considering switching to a biology/chemistry program in order to find a low-cost, accessible solution for hair loss. Replies discuss the merits of this idea as well as potential treatments such as Minoxidil, finasteride, RU58841, TM5614, and ADQ.

community PSA: Most men who stay on Fin will see the sexual side effects go away. Stop the fear mongering

in Finasteride/Dutasteride 191 upvotes 2 years ago

Finasteride can cause sexual side effects in less than 2% of men, but these often disappear over time, even if the treatment continues. Some users report persistent side effects, while others experience no issues or only temporary ones.
