So, we took to the internet to get the latest scoop and sleuth out all the nitty-gritty details. When exposed to testosterone, the male hair follicles were shown to have just 39 percent in anagen phase. The hair follicles retrieved from female scalps weren’t as affected with 59 percent in anagen phase. Alpecin’s study was conducted using extracted human hair follicles, and performed in vitro (meaning outside of the body). This means the results of their research can’t necessarily be applied to real-world hair loss, as how hair follicles react on your head is very different to how they react in a Petri dish. If you’re interested in taking a natural approach to hair growth, then a caffeine-based shampoo may be what you’re looking for. Do I recommend Alpecin, though? Not necessarily.

In 2018, researchers from India and Germany published a study that compared the efficacy of a caffeine-based topical liquid 0.2% versus minoxidil 5% in men with pattern baldness ( 4). In regards to cardiovascular effects, caffeine has been shown to increase blood pressure and heart rate ( 7). This is why men and women with cardiovascular disease should limit their caffeine intake, and they should perhaps consider a different topical solution for hair growth. This often results in too many hairs in telogen phase at once, which increases the number of hairs shed per day. This will also significantly reduce the length of the hair shaft, and the reduction in length will worsen over time.Caffeine does not inhibit the 5-alpha reductase which is responsible for the conversion of testosterone into DHT. Caffeine counteracts the negative effects of testosterone by stimulating adenylyl cyclase, which regulates the conversion of ATP to cAMP. In addition the phosphodiesterase is inhibited, which regulates the conversion of cAMP to 5'cAMP. This leads to an increase of the cAMP concentration. cAMP is an energy supplier for the hair root and counteracts the negative effects of testosterone this way." Minoxidil has been proven effective at growing hair in men and women with AGA. However, there are some side effects associated with its use and many people prefer to take a natural approach to hair growth.

So, given that caffeine appears to be able to stimulate scalp follicles into hair regrowth, perhaps Alpecin shampoo might help people with other types of hair loss too. N. Otberg, A. Teichmann, U.

A difference was seen in women, too, though not as significant with levels increasing to anywhere from 63 to 65 percent. Alpecin Caffeine Shampoo Ingredients Are you embracing grey hair?
