- Can metformin improve scalp health in people with insulin resistance or PCOS? There is no controlled trial showing that metformin improves scalp hair. The PCOS studies most often cited measured unwanted body hair, not scalp density, and a published case report describes hair loss during metformin treatment; any use for hair would be off-label and a decision for a prescribing doctor.
- Can a zinc deficiency directly cause hair thinning or increased shedding? Studies link low serum zinc to diffuse shedding and alopecia areata, and severe deficiency states cause hair loss that reverses when zinc is replaced. The evidence is mostly observational, the one supplementation study was small and uncontrolled, and zinc is not a treatment for pattern hair loss.
- Are you unknowingly overdoing vitamin A? It could be speeding up hair loss linked to hormones like DHT. Sustained vitamin A intake above the tolerable upper limit (3,000 mcg/day of retinol for adults) is linked in case reports to diffuse hair shedding; the claim that it amplifies DHT-driven hair loss has no published human evidence behind it.
- What is the connection between Vitamin D and hair loss? Vitamin D deficiency may contribute to hair loss by disrupting hair follicle regulation.
