first of all I must say: I am very happy to have found your site, your precious information declined in scientific papers and via email. Thank you.

I wrote you an email, sorry to be redundant, but I thought it would be useful to post my experience/doubts for everyone who read. Hope you find the time to answer and feel free to choose where to answer 🙂

I have some question cause I think that most of the articles are partly destinated to a male audience.
I’m a woman of 33, I know for sure that I have (severely) abused my hair in the past with aggressive dyes and pulled hairstyles, I have had periods in my 20s with itchy and discomfort scalp, since many months overcome by the application of natural oils, super gentle shampoos and LOTS of massages. Sometimes I feel some annoyance in the scalp but can’t find why.

I had some truly relief and visible results using minoxidil 5% (not the one on the market but a galenic preparation with nigellamed, progesterone, latanoprost, 17-alpha-estradiol, estrone, melatonin ..) but i quit after a year scared to be totally slave of that drug. And I lost all my gained hair density.

Considering that I can exlude many health problems like Pcos, lack of vitamins, intestinal disorder… can I really reconduct my thinning state to chronic inflammation? And what’s the discriminant that can explain the success of the galenic preparation? Maybe the anti-inflammatory plus estrone recipe?

Many thanks in advance for your advices.

I am finally made an effective hair growth technique which is made possible by multiple factors.

1. Magnesium oil on scalp for 30 minutes before bath.
2. Using Eclipta Alba & Phyllanthus Niruri Tinctures (Topical at Night)
3. Scalp massage after bath.
4. A very good green diet.

Thanks for this super useful article.

I am very healthy on my diet, do sports, etc. So, I ask myself, how come it could be that I have calcification and fibrosis? You see, I am having the thining hair or the top and can already see my scalp.

You mention in the article the excess of collagen. I have been taking collagen supplements for a couple of years maybe, and probably that´s the time when my hair started to thin, more aggressively in the last year. Would you think that the collagen supplements has something to do in this process?

Not sure if you have an article about preventing calcification and fibrosis (or even reversing), but it would be a great addition.

Thanks once again,
Mark.

What do you think of the Growband product by Hairguard, some explanations perfectly match what you explain. It is certainly not miraculous but it must be able to help, by stimulating the bloodflow and relaxing the hair scalp apparently that fights fibrosis and calcification.

This product is incredibly overpriced, but there seems to be a logic behind it.

Thank you

Hey Jeb,

Thanks for reaching out. The current estimates are that female pattern hair loss affects 50% of women throughout a lifetime. So, the incidence seems pretty high to me!

In terms of comparing these statistics against males (80% of whom will experience male pattern hair loss), the difference may just boil down to significantly less androgen production throughout adulthood.

Best,
Rob

Hey Des,

Thanks for reaching out. I’ve seen research demonstrating that vitamin K2 can reverse calcification induced from drugs like Warfarin, and mechanistic research demonstrating a potential role for preventing soft tissue calcification in humans. Unfortunately, in the last five years, I’ve interacted with (probably) 40+ people who’ve tried mega-dosing with vitamin K2 alongside adjunct vitamins/minerals to improve their pattern hair loss, and I’ve yet to see any improvements with anyone using this approach.

In cases of nutrient deficiencies or poor diets, vitamin K2 (alongside becoming nutrient replete) will likely help to slow down the progression of AGA. But as far as a preventive tool, I have my reservations. This article might be of interest to you:

First I’m sorry for my bad english 🙂 Thank you very much for all these informations.

I’m interested in reversing hair loss but also the fact that I have too much body hair. Is it the same method for both?

Best regards,
