community Interesting article links major MPB theories to western diet (and life-style)

in Research/Science 58 upvotes 1 year ago

Poor diet and lifestyle contribute to male pattern baldness. Treatments like Minoxidil, dietary changes, and lifestyle adjustments may help slow hair loss.

community Hair loss research focused on chemistry for decades because we misunderstood the mechanics of growth.

51 upvotes 7 months ago

Hair growth relies on mechanical forces, not just chemicals, with tissue acting like a motor. Minoxidil and finasteride help, but maintaining tissue elasticity and addressing mechanical issues are essential.

community How to deal with mechanically induced shedding

4 upvotes 11 months ago

Minoxidil can cause scalp dryness and flaking, leading to hair shedding when exfoliating. Alternatives like oral Minoxidil, finasteride, and ketoconazole shampoo are suggested to manage these issues.

community Funny Encounter With a Mechanic - Hair Loss Update

in Update 39 upvotes 4 months ago

The user has been taking 3.75mg of finasteride weekly for 8 months, which has improved their hairline and hair texture. They shared a humorous encounter with a bald mechanic who complimented their hair, unaware of the finasteride use.

community Hi-c5 protein, explains why the mechanical tension theory may be correct.

22 upvotes 3 weeks ago

Hair loss may be influenced by mechanical tension and inflammation, with the hi-c5 protein amplifying androgen effects, leading to follicle miniaturization. Treatments like finasteride, minoxidil, and scalp massages are suggested to manage hair loss.
