So if your theories true surely the manifestation from malfunctioning vit D receptors would overlap and there would be a trend whereby people losing their hair also have other issues you mentioned diabetes etc etc? At least some study would surely show some correlation?

Be good to hear on future progress, it's good to use a phone camera on macro mode with flash to monitor very small hairs. I honestly think the hardest part to any hairloss regime not involving simply taking meds, is consistency. I remember reading about people swearing that rubbing finger nails...

Imagine how many years the hairs took to eventually miniaturise, then in theory the reverse - if they are recoverable how long it would take to build up again, were talking several years of persistence to see visible differences. Think how long it takes a new borns follicles to mature from...

I don't doubt this and honestly don't fully understand the detail. However what I do know is scalp tension theory is a relatively new theory after the 1974 study mainly 80s and 90s, then only from 2010 onwards we started seeing more papers on fibrosis and calcification causing scalp stiffness...

The hairloss industry as in meds and hair transplants have nothing to gain from proving tension theory. Is there any evidence that even on clean bald heads, follicles have been totally destroyed? I'm sure even on the baldest shiny head there are still microscopic follicles? I don't doubt any of the above...

It's easy to Google what causes chronic inflammation everywhere on body - Repetitive strain injuries = thickened fascia/tendons over time. chronic tension influences inflammation and collagen remodeling. Or in other world chronic tight deep neck muscles and surrounding head muscles...

Iv thought about local DHT in females before, to simplify females have approx 20 percent blood DHT compared to men. I agree with your theory inflammation = DHT (due to DHT increasing on any part of body which is 'injured') women also on average have far less deep neck tension so less occipitalis...

20 is not young at all when considering bone structure (fully developed) or muscle tension. People win Olympic gold medals at 13, so loads of time to lose your hair through this if it's bad enough.

So people who retain more hair generally have denser thicker hair? This is one of the most obvious statements I've ever read and has nothing to do with bone structure / galea. Also men generally have much thicker/larger galea and usually greater neck/scalp muscle tension, just ask Chatgpt.

100 percent phone posture is an issue. Another main one is the alignment of how people's heads sit on top of rib cage. It's hard to explain, but someone can have forward head posture yet still have decent overall alignment, while someone whose ears appear in line with their shoulders may still...

Look forward to seeing results, maybe you managed to actually fight against the inflammation and fibrosis topically very interesting. I'm 100 convinced on muscle tension is ultimately causing this inflammation. Genetics will play a very small role like they do with everything. Also skull shape...

Yes, higher DHT can increase sebum production as it's controlled by androgens. My view is that when sebum is produced on a scalp with little or no hair, it has less to absorb into or travel along, which may be one reason some bald or closely shaved scalps appear shinier (film buildup of sebum)...

I agree oils are not the answer and can clog pores but the sebum theory with long hair makes some sense - if you consider the opposite when people with thin hair shave to zero for a period of time then grow it out later it tends to be even thinner when grown back out partially due to clogged...

Have you considered a good SMP?

I genuinely think both galea shape and neck alignment play a significant role. When I say neck alignment I mean more than just forward head posture and a lot is not externally visible. It's very hard to describe but even someone with non forward head posture may still not be internally aligned...
