We explored the potential of Methylsulfonylmethane (MSM) as a treatment to minimize hair loss. In our study, we used twenty male Wister Albino mice, carefully dividing them into four groups to test different treatments: a control group with distilled water, a group treated with Minoxidil, one with MSM, and a group receiving a combination of MSM and Minoxidil.
Over the course of the study, we observed that the mice given MSM experienced notable improvements compared to the control group. Specifically, hair growth increased, and hair follicle numbers were significantly higher in the groups treated with MSM, whether alone or in combination with Minoxidil.
Additionally, we found a reduction in tissue levels of 8-isoprostane—a marker of oxidative stress—in the medicated groups, pointing to MSM’s antioxidant properties. There was also an increase in vascular endothelial growth factor, suggesting enhanced blood supply to the hair follicles.
Our overall conclusion is that MSM shows promise in reducing hair loss through its remarkable antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects in male mice. This research indicates that MSM could be a valuable ally in the fight against hair loss.

Reduces postpartum hair loss
Posting a review from my husband's account. My husband originally bought this to help me get sulfur in my system to ward off mosquitoes, but little did I know this product is fantastic for hair and skin! After seven months postpartum, I was experiencing significant postpartum hair loss, losing handfuls of hair. Fortunately, that has completely slowed down, and my hair is already starting to regrow around the edges. Additionally, the stretch marks on my tummy have tightened a bit. I’ve been taking three a day for two weeks and am excited to continue.

Dramatic reduction noted
This dramatically reduces hair loss! After turning sixty, my shedding increased. I suspect the reason is that I hadn't taken MSM for some time. Since restarting it a week ago, my hair loss has markedly decreased! I initially used MSM for joint support but found its positive impact on my hair surprising. I may have individual responses to it, but for me, it's truly a saviour.

Stopped post-COVID hair loss

Less hair loss observed
Taking MSM has made my skin plump. I had joint pain, but after I began taking it, the discomfort eased. Importantly, I've noticed significantly less hair loss; when washing my hair, there was much less in the drain. I've never felt such results before and will continue taking it!

Improved hair condition
Sulfur MSM - for hair and skin !!! There are 360 capsules in a can, each containing 1000 mg. According to the manufacturer's instructions, MSM should be taken once a day in the amount of 3 capsules for 120 days. After using it for about a month, I noticed an improved condition of my hair, skin and nails. It has increased my hair thickness and helped with hair loss. I can see the effect and will continue to take it. One can is enough for two courses over two months. Thank you for your attention.
