learn TDM-105795

TDM-105795 is an experimental topical drug described as a thyroid-receptor agonist, unlike minoxidil or finasteride. It has one 16-week Phase 2 trial in 71 men, with no statistical test or peer-reviewed results published and no head-to-head comparison.

learn Sulforaphane

Compound from broccoli sprouts. In mice, injected sulforaphane lowered blood DHT and helped hair regrow. It has not been tested for hair loss in people.

learn Biotin

A B-vitamin often sold for hair; a 2017 review found benefit reported only in people with an underlying deficiency or condition. The FDA warns that high doses can make some blood tests wrong.

learn Alopecia Areata

autoimmune disorder causing patchy hair loss

learn Hair Transplant

Hair transplantation moves DHT-resistant follicles from a donor area (back and sides of the scalp) into thinning or bald areas. Transplanted hair usually keeps growing long-term, but grafts can thin and surrounding native hair can keep thinning.

learn Vitamin D

Low vitamin D is linked with some types of hair loss, especially alopecia areata, but there is no good evidence that supplements help hair unless you are deficient. Ask a doctor about a blood test before you supplement.

What is the connection between Vitamin D and hair loss? Observational studies link low vitamin D with some types of hair loss, especially alopecia areata, but they have not shown that low vitamin D causes it.
How can I tell if my hair loss is linked to low Vitamin D levels? Hair loss may indicate low Vitamin D levels, but testing is needed for confirmation.

Will I lose my hair if I stop using RU58841? (Spoiler: I might.) There is no published human trial of stopping RU58841; community members commonly report shedding within weeks to months, and androgen biology suggests miniaturization would resume once the topical anti-androgen is withdrawn.

learn Tofacitinib

What types of hair loss conditions are most commonly associated with tofacitinib use in clinical settings? Published studies link tofacitinib mainly to alopecia areata and its severe variants — as an off-label drug being studied for them, not as a cause of hair loss. The evidence is mostly small, open-label or retrospective, and relapse after stopping is commonly reported.
