community Sebaceous filaments / blackheads on scalp - are they a cause of MPB or a symptom?

in Research/Science 1 upvotes 1 month ago

Sebaceous filaments or blackheads on the scalp are not a cause of hair loss; it's more likely due to hormonal factors, particularly in androgen-sensitive areas like the temples and crown. The user is using topical finasteride, minoxidil, and tretinoin for treatment.

community possible treatment of AGA and change in sebaceous gland condition and oil production using sulfur soap

in Research/Science 4 upvotes 11 months ago

Sulfur soap may help with hair thickening and reducing scalp inflammation, but it can cause dryness. Nizoral, containing ketoconazole, is noted for its potential to reduce seborrheic dermatitis but may also cause scalp dryness and hair loss.

community Hot weather causing hair shedding?

3 upvotes 9 months ago

Hot weather can increase hair shedding, possibly due to dehydration and active sebaceous glands. Using shampoos with salicylic acid or zinc pyrithione may help; daily anti-inflammatory use is not recommended.

community Androgenetic alopecia is a skin disease: DHT-mediated skin disorders

63 upvotes 2 years ago

Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) impacts various skin conditions, including Androgenetic alopecia and seborrheic dermatitis, by causing overactivity in sebaceous glands. Topical medications Tacrolimus and Clobetasol can reduce these inflammatory conditions, and treatments like RU58841, Minoxidil, and Finasteride may also be beneficial.
