Glossary Vascular Changes

alterations in blood vessels affecting structure or function

Vascular changes refer to alterations in the blood vessels, including their structure, function, or both. These changes can affect blood flow and are often associated with conditions like hypertension, diabetes, or inflammation. In the context of hair and alopecia, vascular changes can impact the blood supply to hair follicles, potentially influencing hair growth and health.

in Finasteride/Dutasteride 41 upvotes 2 years ago

Dutasteride takes 1-3 months to affect scalp DHT levels, not just a week. The prostate absorbs Dutasteride faster than the scalp due to different vascular networks and enzyme densities.

community Gut microbiome imbalances linked to scalp inflammation and hair follicle impact

in Technology 243 upvotes 4 months ago

Gut microbiome imbalances can cause scalp inflammation and affect hair follicles, potentially leading to hair loss. Treatments include finasteride, peptides like BPC-157, TB-500, KPV, and lifestyle changes such as diet and exercise.
