research Expression Pattern of Cyclooxygenase-2 in Normal Rat Epidermis and Pilosebaceous Unit during Hair Cycle

9 citations , January 2008 in “Acta histochemica et cytochemica”

This study found that COX-2 expression in normal rat skin is linked to the hair cycle, with varying levels observed in different skin structures during anagen, catagen, and telogen phases.

research Complex Hair Cycle Domain Patterns and Regenerative Hair Waves in Living Rodents

127 citations , December 2007 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology”

This review examines regenerative hair waves and complex hair cycle domains in transgenic mice, highlighting how these dynamic processes contribute to skin regeneration and the physiological regulation of organs, but reports no new experimental results.

Analysis of the Expression Pattern of the Carrier Protein Transthyretin and Its Receptor Megalin in the Human Scalp Skin and Hair Follicles: Hair Cycle-Associated Changes

research Analysis of the expression pattern of the carrier protein transthyretin and its receptor megalin in the human scalp skin and hair follicles: hair cycle-associated changes

6 citations , November 2010 in “Histochemistry and cell biology”

This study found that transthyretin and megalin expression in human scalp hair follicles varies significantly with the hair growth cycle, peaking during anagen and diminishing in catagen and telogen phases.

research [Expression pattern of mTOR subunits Raptor and Rictor in mouse hair follicle cycle].

July 2019 in “PubMed”

In this study of mouse hair follicles, Raptor was specifically expressed in hair follicle stem cells, while Rictor was mainly found in inner root sheath cells, indicating distinct roles in hair growth stages.

research Exogenous stimulations change nude mouse hair cycle pattern

2 citations , October 2010 in “Journal of dermatological treatment”

In this study, researchers observed that in nude mice, exogenous stimulations lengthened the hair-existing phase and shortened the no-hair phase, with minoxidil influencing male and female mice differently.

community Two Shedding Cycles? Telogen effluvium or not?

4 upvotes 6 years ago

The user experienced significant hair loss after extended fasting, initially thought to be Telogen Effluvium, but later suspected male pattern baldness. They tried finasteride briefly but stopped due to concerns about side effects, and are unsure if the hair loss is due to Telogen Effluvium or another cause.

community AGA/male pattern baldness and loss of hair in the past 6months

52 upvotes 7 months ago

A 25-year-old male experienced significant hair loss due to telogen effluvium and androgenetic alopecia. He began using finasteride, minoxidil, and vitamins, seeing some regrowth but remains worried about hair density.

community Zinc Pyrithione for pattern hair loss.

4 upvotes 5 years ago

Zinc pyrithione and ketoconazole shampoos may help reduce hair loss by removing DHT from the scalp. Users discuss various treatments, including minoxidil, finasteride, and non-pharmaceutical options like castor oil and dermarolling.

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

484 upvotes 2 years ago

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

community Natural sweetener Stevia found to turbocharge male pattern baldness treatment: Mice given Stevia patch had 18 times better absorption of minoxidil and hair coverage of 67.5% in bald areas after just 35 days.

1741 upvotes 8 months ago

Stevia microneedles increased minoxidil absorption and hair growth in mice. The conversation humorously questions the applicability of these results to humans.

nucleoside used for hair regrowth stimulant properties

signaling protein that, when suppressed, may grow hair by reducing inflammation and stem cell loss

learn Hair Transplant

What happens after a hair transplant? Expect mild swelling and redness, with new hair growth starting in 3 to 6 months.
When will I see new hair growth after a hair transplant? New hair growth usually starts 2-4 months after a hair transplant.

learn Cyproterone

How long does it take for cyproterone to work on hair loss? There is no reliable published figure for how fast cyproterone works on hair loss: the hair cycle means nothing shows for months, the one randomised trial assessed women at twelve months, and community reports range from about six months to two years — with some people seeing no change at all.

learn horsetail extract

How long should you use horsetail extract before noticing stronger or thicker hair? No published trial has tested horsetail extract for hair thinning, so no evidence-based timeline exists; the hair cycle means any supplement needs at least three months, and more realistically five to six, before a change could be visible at all.

learn Rapamycin

Is rapamycin safe for long-term use on the scalp, or should it be used in cycles? There is no published human trial of topical rapamycin on the scalp, so nobody knows whether long-term use is safe; the idea of cycling it comes from community practice and theory, not from any study or guideline, and rapamycin for hair loss is an off-label use of a prescription immunosuppressant.
