research Expressão gênica da aromatase em folículos pilosos do vértice do escalpo de mulheres com ciclos ovulatórios e pacientes com síndrome dos ovários policísticos (PCOS) : análise de associação com parâmetros hormonais e metabolicos

January 2008 in “LA Referencia (Red Federada de Repositorios Institucionales de Publicaciones Científicas)”

This study found that the gene for the enzyme aromatase is expressed in scalp hair follicles of women and is negatively correlated with LH levels, potentially reflecting the hormonal environment of hair follicles in PCOS.

research Skin aging: mechanisms, evaluation, and rejuvenation

May 2026 in “The EMBO Journal”

This study explores the complex mechanisms of skin aging, including cellular senescence and disrupted communication, and highlights rejuvenation strategies like gene expression rewiring and microbiome modulation, offering potential frameworks for regenerative therapies and precise interventions in skin and systemic aging.

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 Macroenvironmental Regulation of Hair Cycling and Collective Regenerative Behavior

42 citations , January 2014 in “Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Medicine”

This abstract omits specific findings and does not provide new research results.

research Regeneration of hair and other skin appendages: A microenvironment‐centric view

10 citations , June 2016 in “Wound Repair and Regeneration”

This review explores the regenerative potential of hair follicles and their role in complete skin regeneration, emphasizing the influence of mechanical factors and niche signaling pathways on hair growth and loss.

community The Real Reason For Hair Loss?

8 months ago

Hair loss is linked to scalp fibrosis and tension, which result from chronic mechanical stress and androgenic signaling. Treatments include blocking androgens with finasteride, promoting hair growth with topical minoxidil, and improving scalp mobility through exercises.

community Serum based on plant extracts boosts hair growth in weeks.

44 upvotes 11 months ago

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 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 Hair loss research is a money grab

227 upvotes 10 months ago

Hair loss is linked to DHT, with treatments like finasteride and minoxidil being common but not definitive. Economic interests influence research, and there is potential for new treatments like PP405 and RU58841.

community Hair loss research focused on chemistry for decades because we misunderstood the mechanics of growth.

51 upvotes 7 months ago

Hair growth relies on mechanical forces, not just chemicals, with tissue acting like a motor. Minoxidil and finasteride help, but maintaining tissue elasticity and addressing mechanical issues are essential.

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.
