research Optimal microneedle length for hair regrowth in hair cycle arrest (alopecia X) in six dogs

December 2023 in “Veterinary dermatology”

This study found that microneedling with longer needles (3 mm) showed better hair regrowth in dogs with hair cycle arrest, although most experienced recurrent hair loss during follow-up. Some dogs also developed minor, temporary itching.

research Cyclic hair-loss and regrowth in transgenic mice overexpressing an intermediate filament gene.

93 citations , May 1990 in “The EMBO Journal”

Mice with extra sheep genes had hair that fell out and regrew in cycles.

research Oestrogen receptor antagonist and hair regrowth in dogs with hair cycle arrest (alopecia X)

11 citations , January 2007 in “Veterinary dermatology”

This study found that administerating 10 mg/kg intramuscular fulvestrant did not stimulate hair regrowth in Pomeranian dogs with alopecia X, though higher doses may warrant further investigation.

Protopanaxatriol Type Ginsenoside Re Promotes Cyclic Growth of Hair Follicles via Inhibiting Transforming Growth Factor β Signaling Cascades

research Protopanaxatirol type ginsenoside Re promotes cyclic growth of hair follicles via inhibiting transforming growth factor β signaling cascades

14 citations , January 2016 in “Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications”

In this study, researchers found that ginsenoside Re from Panax ginseng increased hair shaft length and duration in mice, comparable to minoxidil, by modulating TGF-β signaling pathways.

community if hair follicle miniaturization happens slowly and gradually over a few hair cycles then wouldn't that mean that to regain maximum or top thickness from treatment you would at least need 5-10 years?

in Research/Science 53 upvotes 10 months ago

Hair regrowth from treatments like finasteride, dutasteride, and minoxidil can take several years, with most visible results appearing within 1-2 years and potential improvements continuing up to 10 years. Consistency and patience are crucial for achieving maximum hair thickness, as hair miniaturization and regrowth are gradual processes.

community The never ending cycle as a fin+min user

1356 upvotes 2 weeks ago

Hair loss treatments like finasteride and minoxidil can cause cycles of shedding and regrowth, leading to fluctuating emotions. Users experience periods of hair improvement followed by shedding, with some finding long-term stabilization elusive.

community Help me understand hair/shed cycles. After 6 months of Fin, losing ground again

15 upvotes 4 years ago

After 6 months of using finasteride, minoxidil, RU58841, and microneedling, the user experienced hair regrowth but then noticed a significant shed, returning to the initial state of hair loss. Another user responded that shedding every 6-8 months is normal when using finasteride and advised to continue the treatment for thicker hair regrowth.

community THE HARSH REALITY OF THE HAIR FOLLICLE’s CYCLICAL LIFE? 6.5 months of treatment

in Progress Pictures 399 upvotes 1 year ago

A user shared their 6.5-month experience with topical finasteride (2%) and minoxidil (5%), noting initial progress followed by a significant shedding phase. Others in the conversation reassured that shedding is normal and suggested staying consistent with the treatment for potential regrowth.

community How long does hair actually take to recover from a shed?

in Finasteride/Dutasteride 4 upvotes 1 month ago

Hair regrowth after shedding typically takes 4-6 months, with variations depending on individual hair growth cycles. Finasteride can cause shedding, but new hair will grow back at its natural rate.

When will I see new hair growth after a hair transplant? New hair growth usually starts 2-4 months after a hair transplant.

learn Latanoprost

Is latanoprost more effective for hair regrowth than minoxidil? No trial has compared latanoprost and minoxidil head to head. Minoxidil has large randomized trials and FDA approval for hair loss, while latanoprost's scalp evidence is a single 24-week pilot in 16 men, so the published evidence does not support latanoprost being the more effective option.

learn SCUBE3

What do clinical trials say about the safety and effectiveness of SCUBE3 for hair regrowth? No clinical trial of SCUBE3 for hair regrowth has been registered on ClinicalTrials.gov or published, so there is no human safety or effectiveness data. The evidence is limited to one 2022 laboratory and mouse study reporting that SCUBE3 activates hair follicle stem cells through TGF-beta signalling.

learn Spironolactone

Is spironolactone better for hair regrowth as a pill or as a scalp solution? Oral spironolactone has the stronger published evidence for hair regrowth; topical versions cause fewer systemic side effects but have been studied far less, and no trial has compared the two head to head.

learn Bimatoprost

How does bimatoprost compare to minoxidil for hair regrowth? Minoxidil is FDA-approved for scalp hair loss and backed by decades of large trials; bimatoprost is approved only for eyelashes, and the published scalp evidence is limited to small short studies, so on the scalp it is off-label and experimental.
