Glossary miR-31

small RNA molecule regulating gene expression and hair follicle development

miR-31 is a type of microRNA, which are small, non-coding RNA molecules that play a role in regulating gene expression. Specifically, miR-31 has been found to influence various biological processes, including cell growth, differentiation, and apoptosis. In the context of hair and alopecia, miR-31 can affect hair follicle development and cycling, potentially contributing to hair loss conditions.

community I don’t get Finasteride prescribed anymore..

in Finasteride/Dutasteride 57 upvotes 5 months ago

Finasteride is expensive in Germany, but cheaper alternatives are available in other countries like Turkey, Greece, and Russia. Users suggest traveling to these countries or seeking online prescriptions to save money.

community Are they going to Ban Finasteride in the EU ?

in Finasteride/Dutasteride 68 upvotes 1 year ago

There is concern about a potential ban on finasteride in the EU, but many believe it is unlikely unless serious side effects are found. Users rely on finasteride for hair loss and other health benefits, and a petition has been created to oppose any restrictions.

community I just dreamed... That I had hair again. And I felt so young ans good.
