Hair loss theory involves 3alpha-hydroxysteroid reductase (3AHD) converting DHT to androstenol. Discussion explores potential treatments and encourages more research.
Hair loss theory suggests imbalance between VitaminDReceptor (VDR) and Androgen Receptor (AR) activation. Proposed treatment includes upregulating VDR, downregulating AR, and improving mitochondrial health.
The conversation discusses hair loss treatments, including oral finasteride, topical minoxidil, and microneedling, and the potential impact of VitaminD and folic aciddeficiencies on hair regrowth. It suggests that while male pattern baldness is the primary cause, addressing vitamindeficiencies may aid in improving regrowth.
The conversation discusses whether sunlight exposure affects hair growth or loss, with mixed anecdotes and theories but no clear consensus. Some suggest moderate sunlight can benefit hair by providing vitaminD, while others doubt its effectiveness compared to treatments like Minoxidil or finasteride.
Baldness is not an evolutionary disadvantage because it occurs after reproductive age. Treatments like Minoxidil and Finasteride are used for androgenetic alopecia but don't address the root cause.
