5 / 1000+ resultsresearch Emerging Diagnostic and Therapeutic Potentials of Human Hair Proteomics
This review discusses advancements and gaps in using proteomics for hair testing and its potential in developing a medical proteome repository, but reports no new research findings.
research Pepsin Digestion for Proteomic Studies of the Human Hair Shaft
This study found that pepsin digestion was more effective than trypsin at identifying keratin-associated proteins in human hair shafts and confirmed that trypsin introduced a bias in the analysis of protein composition that pepsin can correct.
research Human hair shaft proteomic profiling: individual differences, site specificity and cuticle analysis
This study found that proteomic analysis can distinguish hair samples across different ethnicities and body regions based on keratin protein levels, which may aid forensic hair identification.
research Proteomic tools for the investigation of human hair structural proteins and evidence of weakness sites on hair keratin coil segments
This study used proteomic techniques to analyze human hair proteins, revealing keratin heterogeneity and identifying posttranslational modifications, such as cysteine trioxidation and methylation.

5 / 1000+ resultscommunity So we have 20k dollars human like machines available but no new effective treatment for hairloss since finasteride :)
There have been no new effective hair loss treatments since finasteride, despite technological advancements. Current treatments include finasteride, minoxidil, and RU58841, with ongoing challenges and potential future solutions in research.
community Everything you ever wanted to know about Pelage Pharma's PP405: how it works and what to expect
PP405 may encourage earlier hair growth and slightly increase visible hair count but does not reverse hair follicle miniaturization in male pattern baldness. It does not address damage to the dermal papilla or broken Wnt signaling.
community Bruteforcing alopecia or the new advent of science progress
Combining therapies like scyllo-inositol, alpha-ketoglutarate, and autophagy-inducing supplements may enhance hair growth and prevent hair loss. Reporting individual results can accelerate progress in hair loss treatments.
community Should I just switch to oral minoxidil + where do you get cheap oral minoxidil in the United States?
Switching from topical to oral minoxidil due to scalp irritation and unsatisfactory results, while also seeking cheaper options in the U.S. Oral minoxidil is generally favored for its effectiveness and fewer application downsides, with CostPlusDrugs and GoodRx offering affordable prices.
community Fin isn’t working anymore after 3 years, afraid to switch to dut?
Finasteride stopped working for a user after 3 years, and they are considering switching to dutasteride. Other users suggest trying dutasteride, with some sharing positive experiences and additional treatments like minoxidil and RU58841.

10 / 801 results- Thinning hair over time? It might not just be genetics: lack of B1 and B2 could be silently working against you. There is no verified human trial showing that B1 or B2 deficiency causes thinning hair or that correcting it regrows hair; a 2019 review concludes the role of micronutrients in hair loss is real but unclear and still needs controlled trials.
- Will I lose my hair if I stop using RU58841? (Spoiler: I might.) There is no published human trial of stopping RU58841; community members commonly report shedding within weeks to months, and androgen biology suggests miniaturization would resume once the topical anti-androgen is withdrawn.
- Does castor oil make hair grow or is it just a myth? There is no published human trial showing castor oil grows hair. It can make hair look and feel better by reducing breakage and adding shine, which is easily mistaken for growth, and it is not approved anywhere as a hair loss treatment.
- Does Redensyl prevent hair loss or only help when there's already visible hair loss? The only human data on Redensyl is a small, unpublished manufacturer study in men who already had androgenetic alopecia; there is no evidence in people without visible hair loss, so nothing supports using it to prevent hair loss before it starts.
- Can Ecklonia Cava be used as a preventive treatment for early signs of hair thinning? No human trial has tested Ecklonia cava for hair loss, so it cannot be called preventive; the evidence is mouse studies and cell cultures suggesting antioxidant activity and 5-alpha-reductase inhibition in the lab.
