research Recent Advances in the Molecular Mechanisms Determining Tissue Sensitivity to Glucocorticoids: Novel Mutations, Circadian Rhythm, and Ligand-Induced Repression of the Human Glucocorticoid Receptor
New findings explain how genetic changes, body clocks, and certain molecules affect tissue response to stress hormones.
research Generalized Glucocorticoid Resistance
Mutations in the glucocorticoid receptor gene cause reduced sensitivity to glucocorticoids and may lead to poor response to treatment.
research Novel Insights Into the Molecular Mechanisms Underlying Generalized Glucocorticoid Resistance and Hypersensitivity Syndromes
Genetic defects in the glucocorticoid receptor gene can cause conditions with abnormal sensitivity to stress hormones, and other factors may also affect this sensitivity.

An update on the use of Pyrilutamide, a new drug for hair loss, which has resulted in no shedding or testicle ache; other users have questioned the science behind this and shared their own experiences with Finasteride, Minoxidil, and microneedling.
community 26M Baseline blood work done before Finasteride
A person considering finasteride for hair loss checked their hormone levels before starting treatment. They are concerned about the potential increase in estradiol and its effects, as well as the impact on their sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) and free testosterone levels.
community 23 years on Fin/Dut… my story so far…
A user's 23 year experience with Finasteride/Dutasteride and their current consideration of adding Minoxidil to their treatments for hair loss.
community High Estrogen causing hair loss?
A 24-year-old male using topical finasteride for hair loss is experiencing thinning despite treatment and has high estrogen levels. He is seeking advice on whether high estrogen could be causing hair loss and how others with high estrogen levels have addressed it.
community Testosterone and hair loss seeming irrelevance
The conversation is about the role of testosterone in hair loss and the effectiveness of different treatments. The conclusion is that DHT is the main culprit for hair loss, and finasteride has been proven to work long-term in maintaining and regrowing hair. Testosterone may have a minor effect, but it is not the primary cause of hair loss.
