Platycladus orientalis leaf extract helps hair grow by activating certain proteins.
research Progenic Hair Regrowth Treatment: The Use of Platelet-Released Growth Factors for Treating Androgenetic Alopecia by Activating Hair Follicle Stem Cells
Platelet-released growth factors can treat hair loss by activating hair follicle stem cells, blocking certain pathways, and controlling inflammation and fibrosis.

5 / 1000+ resultscommunity Serum based on plant extracts boosts hair growth in weeks.
A serum containing Centella asiatica extracellular vesicles, IGF-1, FGF-7, and caffeine significantly improved hair thickness, density, length, and reduced hair loss after 56 days. The conversation also discusses how treatments like finasteride, minoxidil, and ketoconazole address different aspects of hair loss by reducing DHT, improving blood flow, and lowering inflammation.
community Bee venom better than minoxidil?
Bee venom at 0.001% concentration was more effective than 2% minoxidil in promoting hair growth in mice, possibly due to increased growth factors and reduced inflammation. Caution is advised due to potential allergic reactions and the reliance on animal data.
community The Real Cause Of Androgenetic Alopecia
Androgenetic alopecia is caused by DHT affecting hair growth. Finasteride and minoxidil are used to manage hair loss by blocking DHT and promoting hair growth.
community 12 mo 1 ml daily Min/Dermaroller 1mm-1.5mm update + AGA progression theory and specific order of treatment
A user shared their year-long hair loss treatment using minoxidil, microneedling, and scalp massages, reporting moderate hair growth and stabilization. They suggest starting early with less harmful methods and consider adding finasteride or dutasteride if needed.
community My Theory Of Androgenic Alopecia
Hair loss is linked to cellular physiology and the IGF-1 to TGF-B1 ratio, not just androgen sensitivity. The theory lacks evidence, while finasteride and minoxidil are effective treatments.
