research Relative Binding Affinity of Novel Steroids to Androgen Receptors in Hamster Prostate
New steroids were effective in blocking male hormone receptors in hamster prostates.
research Recent Advances in Hair Biology and Treatments of Androgenetic Alopecia
Certain growth factors regulate hair growth cycles, male hormones affect hair cycles, and drugs like Minoxidil and Finasteride can stimulate hair growth and inhibit male pattern baldness respectively.
research Effects of Flutamide, a Pure Antiandrogen, on Endocrine Parameters in the Adult Female Rat
Flutamide, an antiandrogen, has minimal impact on female rat endocrine systems and does not significantly change their reproductive cycles.
research Androgens and Androgen Receptor Action in Skin and Hair Follicles
Male hormones and their receptors play a key role in hair loss and skin health, with potential new treatments being explored.

5 / 1000+ resultscommunity 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 Scalp tension and thickness of the galea aponeurotica, inflammation and potential treatment pathways
Scalp tension potentially affecting hair loss, and potential treatments for male pattern baldness such as Minoxidil, Finasteride and RU58841. Evidence from a study was discussed which suggests that the cause of MPB lies within the follicle itself and is not dependent on its surrounding environment.
community How does Pyrilutamide compare to RU58841 when it comes to androgen receptor binding affinity?
The relative strength of Pyrilutamide compared to RU58841 in terms of androgen receptor binding affinity. It has been noted that Pyrilutamide is 4x stronger than RU58841, with a higher binding affinity than DHT itself.
community Why balding gets worse in every generation?
Balding seems to worsen with each generation, possibly due to stress, diet, and environmental factors. The user started treatments like Minoxidil and finasteride.
community Having androgen receptor density and sensitivity at wrong f*ing place
The conversation discusses hair loss treatments, focusing on the use of topical minoxidil, microneedling, finasteride, and dutasteride, while debating the role of testosterone and DHT in hair loss. It also touches on the potential liver health impacts of these treatments and the genetic sensitivity of hair follicles to androgens.
