Do they cause hair loss
Bump
>>75468988If you believe the theory that hairloss is caused by blood flow restriction and that leading to the dht concentration there yeah nicotine would definitely contribute to that in a big way.
imo yeah
>>75469187What about it's effects on dht?
>>75468988Not directly but they negatively effect blood flow which is a big factor in hair growth.
>>75468988Don't know, but I get weaker boners, and I'm cold all the time. They definitely restrict blood flow.
yes but i don't think it's because of vasoconstriction per se but instead the constant stress and inflammation leads to oxidative stress. i started getting some gray hairs when i was smoking and zynning a lot. i quit and the number of gray hairs has stabilized.
>>75469332nicotine got more anti inflammatory properties than inflammatoryhttps://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8895249/
>>75468988no but it does prevent Alzheimer's
>>75469207Idk I'm not really in the know on the various theories. But they point to anywhere low flow getting higher concentrations of dht. I don't think it has any real role in conversion. But there's some obscure studies saying test release (not production) synchronize with your nicotine usage patterns. So maybe there is something but idk I'd have to run it past an AI that crawls all that shit.
>>75469339in vitro maybe but you have to be a little retarded to think so in vivo
>>75469187>lowers stress>saves hair>restricts bloodflow maybe>loses hairpick one
>>75468988No, no, no and no, no to everything in this thread.My dad smokes a pack every day, and has a full head of hairI dip an entire tin in 3-4 days, and have longer, stronger and thicker hair than my mother and sisterBoth my grandpas died with full heads of hairIts all genetics bro
Goldbergs always play to people's insecurities and vanity>oy vey that will make your hair fall out, and your penis will shrink and your penis will stop working, and you'll turn ugly and no sex and women hate itJews hate nicotine therefore its good
>>75468988>nicotine>hair lossThe increased test from nicotine might cause hair loss but the bump is small enough that you were going to lose your hair regardless of nicotine.
>>75468988You need to start taking RoZyns and get on my level, faggots.
tl;dr - there are a lot of good reasons to use nicotine. These slides don't even get into mitochondrial uncoupling and test improvements.
>>75469207>>75469428Anything that increases testosterone will increase DHT. If nicotine increases DHT, then yea it will promote hair loss, but I doubt this is very significant.
>>75471053sounds fun but i have high blood pressure and nicotine seems bad for meeee
>>75471101This isn't as relevant to total test:dht the thing I'm alluding to is dht gets localized concentrations above the normal blood level in tissues that have lower passive bloodflow like it's some kind of blood sediment.People often point to this being what makes minox and needling work because it increases circulation to that area done consistently enough.I don't know how true any of that is though vs just some stupid genes switch or pathway. For all I know it could be some weird combination of all of them.
