    Pelage Pharmaceuticals are backpedaling on PP-405 now

    Ozempic ain't all its cranked up to be either tho. Weight loss supplements are the anti hair loss pills but for women. The magical bullet is still plastic surgery which ofcourse isn't that risk free either.

    Original research theory: How Androgenetic Alopecia is a manifestation of insulin resistance and its connections with CVD & PCOS

    I think it's a bit dismissive regarding diet. Sugar and fat can lead to high insulin and insulin resistance. Which can lead to high DHT and inflammation etc.

    A start in the potential importance of the wider Hormonal (androgen) metabolism apart from 5a reductase & 5a DHT

    I do not agree in the slightest. You're comparing apples to oranges. And I feel like you didn't truly read my post because it doesn't just touch on the androgen pathway. Healthier people do tend to suffer less from hair loss. And as we age our health decreases and guess what alopecia increases...

    A start in the potential importance of the wider Hormonal (androgen) metabolism apart from 5a reductase & 5a DHT

    I agree. Studies do seem to support that. And we need to keep in mind DHT is potent! We don't need nearly as much to have an affect. Furthermore testosterone does alot as well. I'm not saying it has to be eliminated a 100% but it's likely many people have too high levels. And the point of this...

    A start in the potential importance of the wider Hormonal (androgen) metabolism apart from 5a reductase & 5a DHT

    Part 1 androgen metabolism. While I'm sure there's been conversations about this. I feel like there should be more conversations and studies. I feel like part of the problems in Androgenetic Alopecia is also things like hormone metabolism. Hormones are really complex and I think for that reason people and even...

    For Your Viewing Pleasure-Vitamin D Deficiency & Hair Loss: A Case Report

    Maybe I overlooked but I believe there was also a seasonal impact on hair growth. Considering vitamin d will be affected through the seasons it could play a factor in it. I'm imagining low sun light plus heat. Mean less stimulus. More sun and or more cool weather can lead to more vitamin d and...

    Nowhere near a Cure for balness in 2025!

    Because there's already a widely established "treatment" which arguably makes more money. Finasteride and minoxidil. Wide available relatively effective. Secondly hair transplants becoming more and more common. Profitable, easy, and well known. Theres probably not as much incentive as we...

    For Your Viewing Pleasure-Vitamin D Deficiency & Hair Loss: A Case Report

    For the people saying useless. Theres literally no reason not to do it. Even if you use other treatments. It can only benefit health if done right. My only problem is consistency. I have some drops but I'll be honest ive been forgetting them. This is a good reminder. Lots of interesting...

    Is this real? Results look promising

    Might work but it seems a bit vague and not to mention quite pricey. It's a newer so we'd need more studies

    Craniofacial development - The thing that make us lose hair(A hair loss theory)

    I think if you actually want to make a better point to support this theory. You need to use some type of software or make one. That can look at face values. And then link this with balding and etc. And preferably look at people over a long period. By following them over the years or using old...

    DWAT: Dermal White Adipose Tissue Hypothesis

    Hm I'm guessing a big part behind this is the excess dht etc. increases inflammation I believe and decrease in fat tissue. Dht is not aromatizable. Which is what probably makes it even more dangerous than testosterone alone. As it's probably hard for the body to balance out. Whether cause or...

    How hard is to cope with baldness for you?

    I never said they weren't muscular. They're muscular and fit. But not outstandingly so. It's a level achievable for most men staying active and eating healthy. They're celebrity actors, playing superheroes and bad guys or assassins in their movies. Obviously they cannot show up with a beerbelly...

    How hard is to cope with baldness for you?

    How hard is to cope with baldness for you?

    Nobody's built to have a defect it's just something to live with. It can literally bring physical discomfort. Obviously I never claimed hair overpowers everything. Obviously if you smell like sh*t, and are ungroomed, no many how luscious your hair nobody will want you. Nobody's arguing about...
