Glossary high-sensitivity C-reactive protein

blood test measuring inflammation marker linked to cardiovascular risk

High-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) is a blood test that measures low levels of C-reactive protein, a marker of inflammation in the body. Elevated hs-CRP levels can indicate chronic inflammation and are often used to assess the risk of cardiovascular diseases, as well as to monitor conditions like rheumatoid arthritis and lupus.

The user is considering resuming finasteride after a 6-month break and is debating the necessity of extensive blood work, including hormone and health markers, to establish a baseline. They are unsure if the tests are necessary since they experienced no side effects previously.

community Creatine made all my high DHT symptoms return

82 upvotes 1 year ago

Creatine may increase DHT levels, potentially causing symptoms like acne, oily hair, and hair shedding. Users report mixed experiences, with some avoiding creatine due to hair loss concerns and others seeing no impact.

community Accelerated Hair Loss from Creatine

137 upvotes 10 months ago

Creatine may cause hair loss in some individuals, especially those on finasteride, despite no scientific link. Personal experiences suggest individual sensitivity to DHT could be a factor.

community New Research- Creatine Increasing Scalp DHT Without Corresponding Serum DHT Increase

121 upvotes 2 years ago

Creatine may increase scalp DHT without affecting serum DHT, potentially speeding up male pattern baldness (MPB) for those genetically prone. Treatments mentioned include Minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841.

community Genomic Sequencing for Hair Loss

in Research/Science 156 upvotes 5 months ago

Hair loss treatments like Minoxidil, finasteride, and potential mRNA therapies are discussed. There is skepticism about targeting specific genes due to the complex genetic nature of hair loss.
