Control Plasma Renin Activity and Changes in Sympathetic Tone as Determinants of Minoxidil-Induced Increase in Plasma Renin Activity

research Control plasma renin activity and changes in sympathetic tone as determinants of minoxidil-induced increase in plasma renin activity.

57 citations , February 1975 in “Journal of Clinical Investigation”

This study found that minoxidil increased plasma renin activity in patients with hypertension through both an adrenergic mechanism related to heart rate changes and a secondary mechanism unrelated to propranolol.

research External light activates hair follicle stem cells through eyes via an ipRGC–SCN–sympathetic neural pathway

61 citations , June 2018 in “Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America”

This study found that light stimulation of intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells in the eyes can activate hair follicle stem cells through a neural circuit involving the sympathetic nervous system.

research Hyperactivation of sympathetic nerves drives depletion of melanocyte stem cells

260 citations , January 2020 in “Nature”

Stress can cause hair to turn gray by depleting stem cells.

research Treatment of Obstructive Sleep Apnea Improves Cardiometabolic Function in Young Obese Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome

105 citations , February 2011 in “The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism”

Treating sleep apnea in young obese women with PCOS can improve heart health and insulin sensitivity.

research Altered autonomic neural control of the cardiovascular system in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome

46 citations , December 2007 in “International Journal of Cardiology”

This study found that patients with polycystic ovary syndrome have reduced heart rate recovery, an exaggerated systolic blood pressure response to exercise, and decreased heart rate variability, implying possible autonomic dysfunction.

in Technology 1 year ago

Prolonged use of topical minoxidil and finasteride can lead to neuroendocrine and autonomic dysfunction, causing severe sensitivity and side effects. Recovery involves avoiding these treatments, supporting neurosteroid recovery, calming the sympathetic system, and rebuilding scalp health naturally.

community Minoxidil is NOT an Anti-androgen. No.

in Research/Science 43 upvotes 9 months ago

Minoxidil is not an anti-androgen; it is a growth stimulator and does not lower DHT like finasteride or dutasteride. Minoxidil can cause side effects like facial swelling and anxiety due to its vasodilator properties.

community Do you Have Poor Posture? Maybe Contributing to Hair Loss , Esp Diffuse Thinning

in Research/Science 16 upvotes 3 weeks ago

Correcting posture may improve hair health by enhancing blood circulation and reducing side effects like bloating and sexual issues. The user has been using minoxidil and finasteride for two years with underwhelming results and is exploring posture correction as a potential aid.

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

126 upvotes 2 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 Can someone explain why it's "dumb" to just drink topical liquid minoxidil?

25 upvotes 3 years ago

The conversation discusses the risks and methods of ingesting liquid minoxidil for hair loss. Concerns include dosing accuracy, safety of ingredients, and potential side effects compared to using oral minoxidil tablets.
