Conducted as a double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, it involved healthy adult females experiencing hair loss. Results indicated that after 8 weeks, the supplement significantly reduced hair loss, as evidenced by wash and hair pull tests. After 12 weeks, there was a notable increase in the conversion of vellus hair to terminal hair. Self-evaluations by participants supported these findings, demonstrating that the supplement effectively decreased hair loss and promoted hair growth in the target demographic.
