community 57% increased chance of pattern hair loss independently associated with the consumption of sugary beverages in men (p<0.001) Pt 2
Sugary beverages increase the risk of pattern hair loss in men by 57%. Treatments discussed include Minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841.
community Why is dht bad for scalp hair but good for hair on the rest of body?
The conversation discusses why DHT (dihydrotestosterone) negatively affects scalp hair but promotes growth elsewhere on the body. Various opinions include genetic predispositions, differences in hair follicle reactions to DHT, and the potential role of Omega-3 in reducing inflammation and promoting hair health.
community Eliminating scalp itch leads to regrowth (and my RU58841 progress)
User experienced hair regrowth after eliminating scalp itch with RU58841. Others discussed itch and hair loss connection, and effectiveness of combining RU58841 with 5AR inhibitors.
community The theory that explains everything. Please help me make this big!
The post and conversation are about the role of the enzyme 3alpha-hydroxysteroid reductase in hair loss and the potential of compounds like procyanidin B2 and sulforaphane to boost its activity for hair regrowth. Further research is needed to develop effective treatments based on this theory.
