community Evidence-based natural treatment that works for me

3 years ago

A user shared a natural hair loss treatment involving micro-needling and a mix of turmeric, cinnamon, and coconut oil, claiming it effectively thickened their hair. The treatment is applied every two to three weeks, but some users expressed skepticism and requested photographic evidence.

community Microneedling Isn’t Snake Oil — It’s Evidence-Based. Let’s Talk Studies, Not Fear.

41 upvotes 1 year ago

Microneedling is supported by research as an effective adjuvant treatment for hair loss, especially when combined with Minoxidil or Finasteride, with minimal side effects if done properly. Concerns about long-term safety and potential risks like infection or fibrosis remain, but many users report positive results.

community Best science-backed supplements for androgenetic alopecia? Looking for real evidence

7 months ago

The conversation discusses treatments for androgenetic alopecia, focusing on evidence-based supplements to complement finasteride. Suggestions include oral minoxidil, saw palmetto, pumpkin seed oil, tocotrienols, and various other supplements, while emphasizing the importance of scientific backing and cautioning against saw palmetto if already using finasteride.

learn Centella

Could a flaxseed-based hair mask help fight off the DHT effect in your scalp? There is no verifiable evidence that flaxseed lowers DHT or that its lignans penetrate the scalp; a flaxseed gel mask is a cheap emollient that may soothe an irritated scalp, and it is not a treatment for androgenetic alopecia.
Not eating well lately and your hair’s falling? A centella-based supplement might give your roots the boost they’re begging for. There is no published human trial showing that an oral Centella asiatica (gotu kola) supplement stops hair shedding caused by poor nutrition; the evidence is laboratory work on dermal papilla cells, inflammation and collagen, and community reports mention centella only in topical products.

natural substance from Neem tree with medicinal and pesticidal properties

Microscopic delivery system that sends growth-promoting signals to hair follicles

learn Pyrilutamide

highly targeted anti-androgen that might have minimal systemic effects

learn Follistatin

glycoprotein that inhibits TGF-β and promotes hair growth by antagonizing activin

learn Procyanidin

Are Procyanidin based hair tonics or shampoos effective against androgenic alopecia? Procyanidin-based hair tonics may promote hair growth but lack definitive evidence for AGA.

learn Sulforaphane

How often should sulforaphane-based products be used for hair loss prevention? No human trial has tested sulforaphane for hair loss prevention, so there is no established usage frequency. Oral supplements are taken daily in research on unrelated conditions and the hair-specific evidence is limited to cell, mouse and isolated-follicle studies, so any schedule is extrapolation rather than a dosing guideline.

learn GHK-Cu

GHK-Cu: Does it have side effects or is it completely safe? For topical cosmetic use, the small laboratory evidence base found GHK-Cu non-irritating, and reported reactions are local and uncommon; for injected or oral use there is effectively no human safety data, and the FDA lists GHK-Cu among bulk substances that may present significant safety risks in compounding.
