research Reduced Linear Hair Growth Rates of Vellus and of Terminal Hairs Produced by Human Balding Scalp Grafted onto Nude Mice

23 citations , December 1991 in “Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences”

This study reported that human balding scalp grafted onto nude mice showed reduced linear growth rates of both vellus and terminal hairs.

research Soymilk reduces hair growth and hair follicle dimensions

23 citations , December 2001 in “Experimental dermatology”

This study found that soybean-derived serine protease inhibitors and soymilk may influence hair pigmentation and growth, suggesting their potential use in hair care and management.

research Finasteride Reduces Microvessel Density and Expression of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor in Renal Tissue of Diabetic Rats

7 citations , March 2015 in “The American Journal of the Medical Sciences”

This study found that finasteride reduced VEGF expression and microvessel density in the renal tissue of diabetic rats, suggesting its potential for treating diabetic microvascular complications.

research Salvianolic Acid B Reduces Oxidative Stress to Promote Hair-Growth in Mice, Human Hair Follicles and Dermal Papilla Cells

April 2024 in “Clinical, cosmetic and investigational dermatology”

This study found that salvianolic acid B significantly enhanced hair growth and delayed hair follicle cycle progression in mice and human hair models, suggesting potential as a treatment for hair loss.

research Ginsenoside F2 Reduces Hair Loss by Controlling Apoptosis through the Sterol Regulatory Element-Binding Protein Cleavage Activating Protein and Transforming Growth Factor-β Pathways in a Dihydrotestosterone-Induced Mouse Model

22 citations , January 2014 in “Biological & Pharmaceutical Bulletin”

This study found that ginsenoside F2 may suppress hair cell apoptosis and improve hair growth outcomes in a DHT-induced hair loss model more effectively than finasteride.

community Intermittent fasting reduces hair growth?!? :(

35 upvotes 1 year ago

Intermittent fasting may inhibit hair growth by triggering a stress response that affects hair-follicle stem cells. Some users believe genetics and DHT play a larger role in hair loss, and treatments like Minoxidil and Finasteride are mentioned as ineffective for some.

community Increasing GH and IGF-1 for Increased Growth/Reduced Hair Loss?

4 upvotes 2 years ago

Increasing IGF-1 may help hair growth, but it could also increase hair loss in people with high testosterone. Treatments discussed include l-arginine, glutamine, vanadium, Deer Antler Velvet, ATP, Cocarboxylase, l-carnitine, and Mk677.

community I reduced my serum DHT by 60% without Fin/Dut but not seeing any real stabilization or growth

in Update 2 upvotes 1 year ago

The user reduced serum DHT by 60% using Advanced Trichology's natural DHT blocker but saw no improvement in hair loss. They are considering switching to finasteride due to its proven effectiveness in inhibiting scalp DHT.

community Cardio for more than 60 minutes reduces DHT levels and improve hair growth

in Research/Science 126 upvotes 1 year ago

Long aerobic exercise (over 60 minutes) can reduce DHT levels and improve hair health. Some users discuss using Tadalafil (Cialis) to further reduce DHT after exercise, while others mention using treatments like Minoxidil, Finasteride, and RU58841 for hair growth.

learn Tea tree

Can tea tree–based topical products support hair growth indirectly by improving scalp conditions linked to hair loss? One 4-week trial found a 5% tea tree oil shampoo reduced mild dandruff, but no study has shown that tea tree products improve hair growth or hair loss. Tea tree oil can cause skin allergy.

learn Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor

How does Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) differ from DHT-blocking treatments for androgenic alopecia? VEGF promotes blood vessel growth, while DHT-blocking treatments reduce hormone effects on hair follicles.

learn sh-Polypeptide-7

Does sh-Polypeptide-7 stimulate hair follicles or reduce scalp inflammation? sh-Polypeptide-7 is the INCI name for a lab-made form of human growth hormone (somatotropin) — not EGF, which is sh-Oligopeptide-1. Growth hormone and IGF-1 signalling is documented in hair follicle biology, but there is no published human trial of sh-Polypeptide-7 applied to the scalp for hair growth or scalp inflammation.

learn Pyrithione Zinc

How does pyrithione zinc help reduce dandruff and irritation related to hair loss? In small controlled studies, zinc pyrithione shampoo reduced dandruff; lab studies suggest it works by slowing the growth of Malassezia yeast. It has not been shown to treat hair loss.

learn Piroctone Olamine

How does piroctone olamine fight dandruff, and does it affect hair growth? Piroctone olamine is an antifungal used in anti-dandruff shampoos. In one 2002 trial it reduced dandruff and shedding, but hair density did not change.
