    GlossaryTopical Hair Growth Inhibitors

    products applied to skin to slow or reduce hair growth

    Topical Hair Growth Inhibitors, also known as Hair Growth Inhibiting Creams or Lotions, are products applied directly to the skin to slow down or reduce hair growth. They typically contain active ingredients that interfere with the hair follicle's ability to produce new hair, making them useful for managing unwanted hair in areas like the face, legs, or underarms.

      community Atherosclerosis as cause of balding and treatment

      in Treatment  61 upvotes 1 year ago
      Hair loss may be caused by calcification of capillaries in the scalp, restricting blood flow to hair follicles. A daily treatment regimen including high doses of Vitamins D and K, Magnesium, and Nattokinase could potentially decalcify these capillaries, improving blood flow and hair growth. However, some users warn against excessive Vitamin D intake and emphasize the need for medical consultation.

      Oral minoxidil can boost hair growth but may cause side effects like heart palpitations and increased body hair. Many prefer topical minoxidil due to fewer side effects.
