We examined a new strain derived from the human microbiome, Cicaria, to see how it helps with hair loss. Through testing on individuals with hair loss and comparing them to a control group with normal scalps, we found that Cicaria produced key compounds like adenosine and biotin. Notably, hair follicles treated with these elements displayed longer lengths and maintained healthier root diameters. Furthermore, these treatments appeared to support the phases of hair growth, slowing the transition to hair loss. Thus, Cicaria shows potential as a treatment for hair loss.

We explored the effects of Dexpanthenol, a vitamin B5 precursor, on hair follicle cells. Our findings showed that Dexpanthenol boosted cell viability and proliferation in human dermal papilla and outer root sheath cells. It reduced markers of cell aging and death while promoting factors that extend the hair growth phase.
However, our results indicate that while Dexpanthenol may have potential for stimulating hair growth through these mechanisms, further studies are necessary to establish its effectiveness in combating hair loss more broadly.

Valproic acid treatment and hair loss
We explored the relationship between antiepileptic medications, specifically valproic acid and carbamazepine, and various serum levels in children.
Our findings indicated no significant changes in biotin or biotinidase enzyme levels between the medication groups and healthy controls. However, we noted lower zinc levels in both treatment groups, though still within normal limits.
Interestingly, three participants on valproic acid experienced hair loss. Remarkably, this issue resolved after a three-month regimen of biotin supplementation, suggesting a potential benefit of biotin for hair health.

New hair growth
11 people found this helpful
Worth buying! After recovering from a virus, I was alarmed by tales of hair loss. My hair's genetic predisposition was poor, becoming sparse after two pregnancies. Post-illness, I feared baldness. Based on reviews, I purchased a treatment, which significantly enhanced hair growth and noticeably reduced shedding. Photos taken just a week apart show the results. Additionally, I took vitamin D3, which had no adverse effects. I'm glad I started early, unlike my mother, who regrets not following suit.

I discovered these vitamins while researching how to combat hair loss, and I've relied on them for the past three years! No other treatments have matched their effectiveness. I take them biannually.

Stopped hair loss

This remedy is remarkably effective! Hair loss had become my primary concern, leading to baldness. After trying various treatments, including onions and fabled expensive capsules, I discovered this medication online. With a hormonal imbalance at play, I had little hope left. However, the hair loss eventually ceased, and new growth appeared in the bald patches. Although the effect isn't cumulative, while I'm taking it, my hair remains healthy and revitalised, with friends commenting positively.

Topical solution shows promise in hair loss
We explored the effectiveness of a new topical formulation combining minoxidil, finasteride, biotin, and caffeine on male androgenetic alopecia, which is a common hair loss condition. Over six months, five participants applied the solution daily and attended regular evaluations.
By the end of the study, all patients showed noticeable improvements in hair thickness and overall appearance. While satisfaction levels varied, with some reporting neutral reactions at the three-month mark, most recognized benefits after six months. This suggests that the formulation could be a promising option for treating hair loss in men.

We evaluated the effects of vitamin B6 and calcium pantothenate on hair loss in 46 women with diffuse alopecia. Over 4-5 months, participants received calcium pantothenate, while vitamin B6 was injected daily for 20-30 days, then again after six months.
Our findings highlighted that vitamin B6 significantly improved hair condition and reduced hair loss, especially in cases related to telogenic alopecia. However, calcium pantothenate did not demonstrate a notable positive effect in treating female hair loss.

I found this vitamin B complex effective against hair loss. My hair fell out like leaves in autumn. However, a month after starting, hair loss diminished, with only a few breakouts during critical days. I took it with zinc, and experienced no side effects. The combination was satisfactory in supporting healthy hair.

The B vitamin complex with niacin has effectively managed my hair loss, experienced episodically over ten years, particularly during stressful periods. These vitamins not only benefitted my hair but also alleviated my nervous tic. I did not encounter any adverse reactions, taking one capsule daily. I recommend this supplement for improved hair strength and stress resistance.

I consumed two jars without breaks to tackle my hair loss. The effect became apparent after three months, with my hair becoming healthier and shedding decreased. I'm pleased with the results and might order more, though I'm curious to try other vitamins as well.
