research Probing the Effects of Stress Mediators on the Human Hair Follicle
In this study, researchers found that substance P triggered premature catagen development and immune changes in human scalp hair follicles, providing a possible biological link between stress and hair loss conditions like telogen effluvium and alopecia areata.
research PPAR‐γ signalling as a key mediator of human hair follicle physiology and pathology
This review synthesizes current research on PPAR-γ signaling in hair follicle biology and its potential role in treating hair growth disorders like scarring alopecia and hirsutism, but reports no new clinical results.
research Skin endocrinology and nutrition
This summary discusses the role of endocrinology and nutrition in skin health, highlighting the importance of a balanced approach to UV exposure, nutrition, and potential benefits of probiotics without reporting new research findings.
research Frontiers in the (Neuro-)endocrine Controls of Hair Growth
This presentation reviews recent discoveries about signaling mechanisms in hair follicles and their potential influence on hair cycle control and melanogenesis, without presenting new experimental results.

Using finasteride and minoxidil for six months led to improved hair density and appearance. A temporary decrease in libido was noted as a side effect.
community New Research- Creatine Increasing Scalp DHT Without Corresponding Serum DHT Increase
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 Dht kills hair, but no one says why?
DHT affects hair follicles, contributing to hair loss, but the exact mechanism is unclear. Treatments like finasteride and minoxidil are used to manage hair loss, though they may have side effects and varying effectiveness.
community Peptides that Stop Hair Loss? | In-depth Literature Review Video
Peptides like TB500, KPV, GHK-CU, and BPC-157 are overhyped for hair growth with limited proven effectiveness in humans. Combining peptides with delivery methods like iontophoresis and sonophoresis shows promise, but many claims remain unproven.
community Prolactin the Cause of Hair Loss? ABS-201 the Cure?
Prolactin may contribute to hair loss, but targeting its receptor won't cure androgenetic alopecia. ABS-201 could be a useful alternative or adjuvant therapy, similar to JAK inhibitors, but not more effective than HMI-115.

6 / 801 results- Sensitive to hormones? A centella scalp mask may help ease hidden inflamm Centella asiatica has anti-inflammatory and wound-healing effects in animal and cell studies, but no published research has tested a centella scalp mask on the human scalp, in hormonal contexts or otherwise, and no community reports were found of one being used this way.
- Why is Estradiol used to treat hair loss in women and transgender people undergoing hormone therapy? Estradiol helps treat hair loss by balancing hormones and supporting hair follicle health.
- Is applying Estradiol directly to the scalp effective for hormone-related hair thinning? Applying Estradiol directly to the scalp may help with hormone-related hair thinning.
- 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.
- Can I use clascoterone if I'm undergoing gender-affirming hormone therapy? No published clinical trial has tested clascoterone in people on gender-affirming hormone therapy, so its safety in that group is unknown. The FDA label reports low systemic exposure and no described effect on blood testosterone, but it also records HPA-axis suppression and raised potassium in a small minority of subjects.
