CB 03 01 is a topical hair loss treatment that works by binding with androgen receptors in the hair follicles, helping to reduce the amount of DHT that’s able to bind with the receptors.
Reducing or blocking scalp androgen receptors is possibly the best way to treat male pattern hair loss because it means we can reduce the damaging effect of DHT on the hair without losing the anabolic benefits of DHT.
DHT causes hair loss. Why then do some people have high DHT levels and no hair loss? Here’s why…
Equol is a natural plant extract with anti-androgen properties. By consuming equol or applying it topically we may be able to reduce DHT and thereby reduce male pattern baldness.
The androgen hormone DHT causes male pattern baldness (MPB) when it binds to androgen receptors in the scalp. Most MPB treatments involve reducing DHT, but this has major side effects, including loss of drive, inability to gain muscle, loss of sex drive and impotence. So a far better solution might be to reduce or suppress the androgen receptors in the scalp, so DHT cannot damage the hair follicles. That is precisely what EGCG does…
Topical Spirolactone is an anti-androgen cream. When applied to the scalp it binds to the DHT receptors, which blocks DHT from binding to the receptors, preventing DHT from causing hair loss.
DHT is known to cause hair loss when it binds to receptors in the scalp hair follicles. But rather than reducing DHT (which is beneficial in other areas of the body) we should instead try to prevent it from binding to receptors in the scalp (reduce scalp sensitivity to DHT). Here’s how it can be done…
Male pattern hair loss is caused when the hormone DHT binds to receptors in the hair follicles. RU58841 competes with DHT to bind with the receptors and as a result less DHT binds and therefore hair loss is reduced.
