research Sequential estrogen-progestin addition to gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist suppression for the chronic treatment of ovarian hyperandrogenism: a pilot study.
This study concluded that a regimen of transdermal estradiol and oral medroxyprogesterone acetate effectively reduces hirsutism while minimizing side effects in women with polycystic ovary syndrome.
research Failure of Topical Estrogen Receptor Agonists and Antagonists to Alter Murine Hair Follicle Cycling
This study did not find any significant effects of estradiol or its antagonists on hair growth in two common mouse strains, challenging previous results reported by Oh and Smart.
research Treatment of hirsutism with a gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist and estrogen replacement therapy
This study found that treatment with a GnRH agonist and estrogen and progestin replacement significantly improved hirsutism scores and hair growth rates in women with polycystic ovarian disease.
research Minoxidil May be a Partial Agonist of Estrogen Receptor Alpha
In this study, researchers explored whether minoxidil, a common treatment for androgenetic alopecia, may have estrogenic activity and found preliminary evidence suggesting it could act as a partial agonist of Estrogen Receptor α (ERα).

community Can I take bicalutamide for hair loss as a man, but don’t want to transition?
A 23-year-old man with hair loss, despite using dutasteride, oral minoxidil, and RU58841, is considering bicalutamide for regrowth but is concerned about feminization. Alternatives like topical estrogen, JXL069, and spironolactone are discussed, with suggestions to explore thyroid levels and other potential underlying conditions.
community Do you know any alternative to Minoxidil ?
The user experienced side effects from oral minoxidil and is seeking alternatives like Stemoxydine, Aminexil, and Redensyl + Procapil. They have been using finasteride for four years and are considering other treatments due to concerns about side effects.
community Summary of future treatments from 2020
Hair loss treatments include finasteride, minoxidil, microneedling, dutasteride, CB-03-01, RU-58841, and experimental options like KY-19382 and stem cell therapy. Some treatments are considered ineffective or risky, such as ketoconazole, PRP, and low-level laser therapy.
community Has there been any update or progress on the 3-alpha hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase hypothesis?
The conversation discusses the hypothesis that a lack of the enzyme 3-alpha hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (3α-HSD) on the scalp may contribute to hair loss by allowing DHT to accumulate. Despite interest in this theory, no recent research has been conducted, and current treatments like finasteride and minoxidil remain the most supported options.

5 / 801 results- Alfatradiol: What does a form of estrogen have to do with hair loss in men? Alfatradiol (17α-estradiol) is a prescription topical hormone, licensed for androgenetic alopecia in Germany but not FDA-approved. The controlled trial evidence is in women, where it produced stabilisation rather than regrowth and was outperformed by minoxidil; no comparable placebo-controlled trial in men appears to have been published.
- Why is Estradiol used to treat hair loss in women and transgender people undergoing hormone therapy? Estradiol helps treat hair loss by balancing hormones and supporting hair follicle health.
