Vitamin D3 promotes hair growth
1,25-(OH)D promotes hair growth by inhibiting NLRP3/IL-1β and HIF-1α/IL-1β signaling pathways.
Highly relevant to hair loss
This study dives into how 1,25-(OH)D, a potent form of vitamin D, influences hair growth. Through a combination of experiments in live mice, hair follicle organ culture, and detailed cellular investigations, we uncovered that this vitamin enhances hair regeneration.
Specifically, we found that 1,25-(OH)D not only extends the growth phase of hair follicles but also improves the abilities of certain skin cells that are vital for hair growth. This process relies on receptors for vitamin D, highlighting the importance of our body’s biological pathways in managing hair health.
Interestingly, our findings showed that 1,25-(OH)D can also negate some of the negative effects of DHT—a hormone often linked to hair loss. Overall, this suggests that vitamin D3 could be an effective treatment option for those experiencing androgenetic alopecia, or common hair loss.

Vitamin D3 improves hair regrowth
Efficacy of Oral Vitamin D Therapy in Patients Suffering from Diffuse Hair Loss (Telogen Effluvium).
Study highlights vitamin D efficacy
We explored the prevalence of diffuse hair loss, specifically telogen effluvium (TE), and the effectiveness of oral vitamin D therapy in treating this issue among women in southern Punjab, Pakistan. Our study involved 40 adult women who received 200,000 IU of vitamin D every two weeks for three months.
After treatment, we assessed the participants' hair growth condition 15 days following their last dose. We found that the average age of the women was 32.2 years, with the age group of 21-30 exhibiting a higher prevalence of TE than those aged 31-40.
Remarkably, 82.5% of the women experienced significant improvement in hair growth after the treatment. We observed that younger women who do not use sunscreen but often consume milk or milk protein showed particularly notable results. This suggests that vitamin D could be a promising option for those struggling with hair loss due to TE.

Vitamin D3 may aid hair growth
Trichotillomania associated with a 25-hydroxy vitamin D deficiency: A case report.
Direct examination of vitamin D3
We observed how vitamin D3 may influence hair loss in individuals suffering from trichotillomania, a condition characterized by the compulsive urge to pull out hair. The study focused on two female patients who were experiencing noticeable hair loss on their scalps, assessed using the Massachusetts General Hospital Hair Pulling Scale.
To promote hair growth, both patients were given dietary supplementation of vitamin D3 at a dose of 1000 IU daily. Over a treatment period of 3 to 4 months, we noted significant improvements in both patients. This was evidenced by a reduction in hair loss linked to their obsessive-compulsive disorder, which corresponded with increases in their serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels.
The results suggest there's a potential connection between vitamin D deficiency and trichotillomania, particularly how inadequate vitamin D may exacerbate hair loss in those susceptible to this disorder. Overall, we found support in both experimental and clinical evidence for the role vitamin D may play in hair loss associated with trichotillomania.

Vitamin D shows promise for hair loss
Treatment of alopecia totalis/universalis/focalis with vitamin D and analogs: Three case reports and a literature review.
Moderate relevance of findings
We explored the potential of vitamin D3, particularly its active form calcitriol, in treating various types of hair loss, including alopecia totalis, universalis, and focalis. Our focus was on three young girls who had battled with severe hair loss for extended periods without success in previous treatments.
Over the course of the study, we initiated a regimen that started with a six-month course of vitamin D3 repletion using oral cholecalciferol, which did not yield immediate results. However, upon switching to calcitriol and its analog, paricalcitol, two out of the three girls experienced significant hair regrowth. One girl saw hair begin to regrow within six months, and her progress stabilized over the next four years with increased doses.
The second patient faced some side effects, such as mild hypercalcemia when taking calcitriol, which we successfully managed by transitioning to paricalcitol. Meanwhile, our third patient experienced a rapid resolution of hair loss with a high dose of cholecalciferol. These findings suggest that vitamin D may hold promise as a therapeutic option in managing specific types of alopecia, warranting further study in larger clinical trials.

Microneedling with Vitamin D3 is effective
Combined microneedling with topical vitamin D3 or bimatoprost versus microneedling alone in the treatment of alopecia areata: A comparative randomized trial.
Vitamin D3's isolated impact unclear
We explored the effectiveness of vitamin D3 in treating alopecia areata (AA), a condition that leads to hair loss. To do this, we conducted a study with 75 participants, dividing them into three groups. One group received microneedling treatment alone, while the other two groups received microneedling combined with either topical vitamin D3 or bimatoprost, a drug known to promote hair growth.
Throughout the study, we measured participants' progress using clinical evaluations and a scoring system to gauge hair regrowth. Interestingly, both the vitamin D3 and bimatoprost groups showed significant improvements in hair regrowth compared to the microneedling-only group. However, after three months, we found no notable difference between the regrowth achieved with vitamin D3 and that with bimatoprost.
Importantly, all treatments were well tolerated, with only mild and temporary side effects reported. This leads us to conclude that while vitamin D3 in combination with microneedling offers a promising approach for localized AA, its benefits may not be significantly greater than those of bimatoprost.

Life-changing effect
This is truly a godsend for me! After being prescribed vitamin D and iodine for hair loss, I discovered that vitamin D is better absorbed with vitamin K. We combined three dietary supplements, and this has been miraculous! Though I've not taken them for long, I can feel the effects already.

Hair growth improvement
Excellent for hair loss! It has helped my hair grow longer. I have been taking vitamin D for two years now, and when I stop, my hair loss returns. I believe a larger dosage might be beneficial.
