research Calcineurin/Nfatc1 signaling links skin stem cell quiescence to hormonal signaling during pregnancy and lactation

40 citations , April 2014 in “Genes & Development”

The researchers reported that in mice, prolactin signaling in the skin epithelium inhibits hair follicle stem cell activation, promoting quiescence during periods of high serum prolactin like pregnancy and lactation.

research Hormonal and Genetic Controls of Hirsutism: Link Between hyperprolactinemia, Polycystic ovary syndrome and Hirsutism

1 citations , July 2024 in “Journal of Medical and Life Science”

In this review, researchers examined the complex interaction of hormones, genes, and reactive oxygen species in hirsutism and PCOS, highlighting prolactin's role in modulating hormone levels linked to hair growth disorders.

research PCOS and Depression: Common Links and Potential Targets

96 citations , October 2021 in “Reproductive Sciences”

Women with PCOS often experience depression and anxiety, affecting their quality of life.

research Metabolic syndrome and skin conditions: Is there a potential link?

March 2025 in “Forum Dermatologicum”

This review explores links between metabolic syndrome and skin diseases, reporting shared mechanisms like inflammation and hormonal imbalances that may influence conditions such as acne, rosacea, psoriasis, and alopecia, and emphasizes the importance of managing cardiovascular risks in affected patients.

research Understanding human aging and the fundamental cell signaling link in age-related diseases: the middle-aging hypovascularity hypoxia hypothesis

4 citations , June 2023 in “Frontiers in Aging”

This scoping review evaluates the connection between hypoxia and declining sex hormonal signaling in middle-aged individuals, proposing a "middle-aging hypovascularity hypoxia hypothesis" as a potential mechanism influencing age-related diseases, with implications for developing strategies to maintain healthspan.

community DUPA, Non Responders and Connective Tissue Disorders

8 upvotes 1 year ago

A 27-year-old male with diffuse hair loss, including the donor area, did not respond to finasteride, dutasteride, or minoxidil. He suspects his hair loss may be linked to a mild connective tissue disorder, possibly affecting the structural support of hair follicles, rather than being purely hormonal.

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

learn Lavender

Is lavender effective for hormonal hair loss or just stress? Lavender may help with stress-related hair loss but has limited evidence for hormonal hair loss.

learn procapil

Want to stop hormonal hair loss without touching your hormone levels? Procapil could block the enzyme doing the damage. Procapil's supplier describes it as inhibiting 5-alpha reductase at the scalp without changing hormone levels, but the published support is cell and animal work plus one small human study of a caffeine-plus-Procapil formula. It is a cosmetic ingredient, not an approved hair-loss treatment, and no trial has compared it with finasteride or minoxidil.

learn Baicapil

Losing hair from hormonal imbalance? Baicapil might block DHT without messing with your hormones. No published study shows that Baicapil blocks DHT — the only data on the ingredient itself is the manufacturer's own unpublished dossier, and the baicalin research behind the claim is cancer cell-line work in which the effect was explicitly independent of the androgen receptor.

learn Adenosine

Adenosine : Can it help if my hair loss is due to a hormonal imbalance like PCOS or DHT? Adenosine may help improve hair growth affected by hormonal imbalances like PCOS or DHT.

learn Bicalutamide

Why are some women using bicalutamide to fight hormonal hair loss? Bicalutamide blocks androgens, helping women combat hormonal hair loss effectively.
