research SERUM VITAMIN D LEVELS IN PREMATURE ANDROGENETIC ALOPECIA- A CASE -CONTROL STUDY.

May 2023 in “GLOBAL JOURNAL FOR RESEARCH ANALYSIS”

This study found that males with early onset androgenetic alopecia had significantly lower serum vitamin D levels compared to age-matched healthy controls, although no correlation between the severity of alopecia and vitamin D levels was observed.

research Is there male androgenetic alopecia the sign of male equivalent of polycystic ovary syndrome or metabolic syndrome

December 2006 in “8th European Congress of Endocrinology incorporating the British Endocrine Societies”

Men with early hair loss and hormonal changes like PCOS could be the male equivalent of PCOS, not linked to metabolic syndrome.

research STUDY OF VITAMIN D LEVELS IN MEN WITH PREMATURE ANDROGENETIC ALOPECIA

July 2021 in “PARIPEX INDIAN JOURNAL OF RESEARCH”

This study found that vitamin D plays a major role in the premature onset of androgenetic alopecia.

research Polycystic Ovaries Are Inherited as an Autosomal Dominant Trait: Analysis of 29 Polycystic Ovary Syndrome and 10 Control Families

63 citations , January 1999 in “The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism”

This study found evidence suggesting a potential genetic link between polycystic ovaries and premature male pattern baldness through screening of first-degree relatives of women with polycystic ovary syndrome.

community Finally, some real breakthroughs. A comparison of the two leading baldness treatments: PP405 versus ABS-201

106 upvotes 11 months ago

PP405 and ABS-201 are promising treatments for male pattern baldness. PP405 shows rapid hair growth in human trials, while ABS-201 shows significant regrowth in animal studies but is still in early human trials.

community Genetics are so weird and unpredictable

in Minoxidil 118 upvotes 1 year ago

The user experienced male pattern baldness starting at 18, tried finasteride with no success, and switched to dutasteride, which halted hair loss. Minoxidil had no effect for them, while their brother, who didn't use AR inhibitors, maintained a juvenile hairline and successfully grew a beard with minoxidil, highlighting the unpredictable nature of genetics in hair loss and treatment response.

community Everything you ever wanted to know about Pelage Pharma's PP405: how it works and what to expect

126 upvotes 3 months ago

PP405 may encourage earlier hair growth and slightly increase visible hair count but does not reverse hair follicle miniaturization in male pattern baldness. It does not address damage to the dermal papilla or broken Wnt signaling.

community Yes your lifestyle and diet has its role in hair loss.

in Chat 296 upvotes 1 year ago

Diet and lifestyle changes can reduce hair shedding but won't regrow hair lost to genetic male pattern baldness. Treatments like finasteride and dutasteride are necessary for significant hair regrowth.

community Creatine Anecdote (Please don't eye roll too hard)

8 upvotes 2 years ago

Creatine use is linked to increased hair loss, especially in those prone to male pattern baldness. Some users experienced side effects with minoxidil and finasteride, while others reported no impact from creatine.

What is male pattern baldness? Male pattern baldness is a genetic condition causing hair loss in men, starting with a receding hairline.
Can male pattern baldness be prevented? Male pattern baldness cannot be completely prevented, but treatments can slow its progression.
What causes male pattern baldness? Male pattern baldness is caused by genetic sensitivity to the hormone DHT.

autoimmune disorder causing patchy hair loss

learn Finasteride

Finasteride for alopecia: the definitive guide to using it correctly. Finasteride 1 mg daily blocks DHT and, in trials, slowed hair loss in most men over 6 to 12 months, though some men do not respond and the benefit lasts only while the drug is taken. It is prescription-only, carries a pregnancy contraindication, and has reported sexual, mood, breast and semen side effects, some of which men report continuing after stopping.
Does hair strand thickness decrease in men with androgenic alopecia? Can finasteride help restore it? Androgenic alopecia thins hair strands by miniaturizing follicles. The pivotal finasteride trials (1,553 men, 1 mg/day, two years) report increased hair counts and improved assessed appearance, but they measured density, not the diameter of individual strands, so the effect on thickness itself is not established.
