research Vertex balding, plasma insulin-like growth factor 1, and insulin-like growth factor binding protein 3
This study found that older men with vertex balding have lower circulating levels of the protein IGFBP-3 and higher levels of IGF-1.
research The Association between Low (or Reduced) Circulating Insulin-Like Growth Factor-1 and Insulin-Like Growth Factor Binding Protein-3 with Hair Loss in Women. A Case-Control Study in Basrah, Iraq
In this case-control study, researchers observed that women with female pattern hair loss exhibited significantly lower serum IGF-1 levels than controls, while IGFBP-3 levels showed no significant difference, suggesting a potential role for IGF-1 in the condition.
research The Association Between Low (Or Reduced) Circulating Insulin-Like Growth Factor-1 and Insulin-Like Growth Factor Binding Protein-3 with Hair Loss in Women. A Case- Control Study in Basrah City of Iraq
This study found that women with female pattern hair loss had significantly lower serum IGF-1 levels than controls, suggesting a possible role for IGF-1 in this condition.

IGFBP‐rP1 shows potential for treating androgenic alopecia by influencing hair cycle transitions. Increasing IGF-1 levels may have similar effects to Minoxidil and 5-AR inhibitors in reducing hair loss.
community What are your thoughts on pre-finasteride blood work?
The user is considering resuming finasteride after a 6-month break and is debating the necessity of extensive blood work, including hormone and health markers, to establish a baseline. They are unsure if the tests are necessary since they experienced no side effects previously.
community "Creatine causes hair loss" myth debunked once and for all
Creatine does not directly cause hair loss but may increase DHT levels, potentially worsening hair loss in those predisposed to male pattern baldness. Users have mixed experiences, with some reporting increased shedding and others seeing no effect.
community The Real Cause Of Androgenetic Alopecia
Androgenetic alopecia is caused by DHT affecting hair growth. Finasteride and minoxidil are used to manage hair loss by blocking DHT and promoting hair growth.
