research PHYSIOLOGIC SKIN CHANGES ASSOCIATED WITH PREGNANCY
Pregnancy often causes skin changes like darkening, stretch marks, and hair growth, which may improve after childbirth.
research Combined oral contraceptives promote androgen receptor and oestrogen receptor alpha upregulation in the female prostate (Skene’s paraurethral glands) of adult gerbils (Meriones unguiculatus)
This study concluded that cyproterone acetate alone produced antiandrogenic effects on the female gerbil prostate, while ethinyloestradiol alone stimulated estrogenic activity, and their combination led to prostatic lesions.
research Protective effects of wheat sprouts extract against acrylamide-induced skin toxicity: Modulation of oxidative stress, apoptosis, and histomorphometric alterations in rats
In this study, oral administration of wheat sprout extract significantly protected rats against skin damage caused by acrylamide exposure by enhancing antioxidant defenses, reducing oxidative stress, and preserving skin structure, highlighting its potential as a sustainable protective agent against environmental skin toxins.
research Physiologic changes of pregnancy: A review of the literature
This review provides an overview of the physiologic skin changes during pregnancy but reports no new findings, emphasizing the need for physicians to distinguish between benign and potentially pathological conditions.

5 / 1000+ resultscommunity DHT Harms Scalp Microbiome: DHT Itch is REAL
Increased Malassezia and Cutibacterium in the scalp microbiome are linked to higher sebum production and inflammation in androgenetic alopecia (AGA). Treatments include ciclopirox shampoo, benzoyl peroxide shampoo, clobetasol propionate, calcipotriol, minoxidil, finasteride, and dutasteride.
community risks with finasteride and dutasteride
Finasteride and dutasteride have potential risks, including post-finasteride syndrome, but are commonly used for hair loss. RU58841, minoxidil, and needling are suggested as alternatives, though all treatments carry risks.
community PSA: Most men who stay on Fin will see the sexual side effects go away. Stop the fear mongering
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.
community Could a reversed SARM designed for the scalp serve as a replacement for oral Dut and Fin?
The conversation discusses the potential of developing a selective oral SARM to target androgen activity in the scalp and skin, as an alternative to oral Dutasteride and Finasteride, which have systemic side effects. It also mentions Clascoterone and RU58841 as topical treatments for hair loss.
community Sugar and Hair loss connections
High sugar diets may worsen hair loss by increasing 5α-reductase activity and androgen levels, especially in women with PCOS. A low sugar diet might reduce scalp DHT levels, similar to finasteride, but genetics also significantly influence hair loss.
