5 / 831 resultscommunity Possible topical option for preventing BDNF-related hair loss
The conversation discusses hair loss linked to BDNF-increasing nootropics like Semax and Lions Mane. Suggested topical treatments include capsaicin, beta-glucan, and ginseng to counteract TGF-B activation.
community A concise, easy-to-understand post on Androgenic Alopecia theory and its practical applications
The mechanism of Androgenic Alopecia and practical applications of treatments like Minoxidil, Finasteride, RU58841, dermarolling, scalp massages, anti-fungals, progesterone, estrogen, PPAR-γ activators, reducing oxidative stress, and scalp exercises. It explains why DHT is important in AA and how other factors might be involved such as hypoxia, increased DKK-1 expression, morphological changes to the scalp, skull growth during childhood/puberty, and blood flow.
community CRISPR Is Curing People Right Now. Genetic Hair Loss is Next?
CRISPR shows promise for treating hair loss by targeting specific genes. Current treatments include Minoxidil and finasteride, but CRISPR could offer a more precise solution, though it is still expensive and in early stages.
community Holy shit. Verteporfin may actually be the cure
The post and conversation discuss Verteporfin's potential as a hair loss treatment. It's shown promise in regrowing hair after transplants and might be effective with microneedling.
community Phase II Clinical Trial for TDM-105795 started recruiting
A Phase II clinical trial for TDM-105795 has started recruiting in the US, and it might be a promising treatment for hair loss. Many hair loss drugs, including this one, originate from China.
