It's the cortisol, DHT is merely the trigger of a stress related process enabled by cortisol

@sunsunsun Having a girlfriend like that must be really stressful. Interestingly enough, person with the worst skull expansion I have ever seen IRL have extremely toxic wife. Might be a coincidence
@engineer Is it the cortisol directly, or is it something like cortisol -> tense neck -> poor blood flow? Or cortisol -> tense galea -> abnormal skull growth? Apparently cortisol spikes may cause bone growth in muscle tissue

@sunsunsun XDXDXD

@BearWithMe She seems very smart. I would not let my partner go near Sushi. No chance.

I don't know the exact mechanism. However, I do know that at least one study found there is a very tight correlation between elevated cortisol and hair loss (p < 0.001, https://x.com/PeatPill/status/2003135410592153918), and if many people seemingly have low hormone levels while still getting the same hair loss, then it can't be DHT alone. You also commonly see hair loss in people with "stressful" jobs (like Wall Street day traders) and that's cortisol city. Therefore, the model that fits these behaviors most closely would be elevated cortisol being the root condition creating hair loss. To preserve my hair (which is still super long and luscious and curly despite some funny business in the corners) I'm just preemptively using 6 keto p4 to knock down cortisol as much as is feasible. The good news is that I'm not losing any or if it's happening, it's happening very slowly, plus I don't feel anywhere near the same amounts of stress when I encounter something stressful like a losing futures trade. The bad news is this is only my second week using 6kp4 so its longer term efficacy remains to be seen.

@sunsunsun careful with this, people who are already fully gone will have nothing to lose.

@DKJoeAgain your reply is in reference to what? the ex-friend? we are on totally casual terms now, no unfriendliness, and I have zero resentment to him
-
@sunsunsun yes I was referring to the ex-friend in jest...and so I assume his hair must be making a miraculous recovery? I must take more care not to sleight you in my dreams.
-
@DKJoeAgain we aren't friends again, but when I saw him we were 'friendly' if you know what I mean. im not interested in rekindling a friendship with him, and at the same time I don't have any bad feelings for him such as resentment or seething. it remains to be seen what his hair does

I've noticed that when i eat sweet fruits or drink lots of sugared juice my hair becomes silkier and dermatite symptoms are less intense.
When i eat rice and beans, bread, pasta my hair becomes dry, coarse and dermatites more likely to flare up.
Probably cutting starch and flour and increasing fruit might be the start to recover hair.
