I’ve been reading a lot lately about how stress can affect hair loss, and one thing that keeps popping up is the relationship between cortisol and DHT. It seems logical that if stress increases cortisol, and cortisol somehow affects DHT, there could be a direct link to hair loss. Has anyone looked into this more deeply or found any studies that explore the connection?
Yeah, I’ve seen a bit about that too. Stress definitely seems to play a role, but the cortisol-DHT link is a bit murky. I haven’t found any super concrete studies, but managing stress definitely helps overall hair health. Worth looking into more, though.
I’ve heard the same stuff about cortisol and DHT, but it’s a bit of a rabbit hole. I tried a few stress management things and it helped a bit, but nothing revolutionary. I think the key is just keeping a balanced lifestyle. Less stress is good for everything, not just hair. Haven’t seen any solid studies that nail it down, though. If you find something concrete, let me know.
