Doctors often prescribe minoxidil, finasteride, and corticosteroids to men and women experiencing excessive shedding, thinning, or balding.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But what about cannabidiol? Can the naturally derived compound help combat hair loss? Can it complement prescribed medications and enhance their effectiveness? We\u2019re answering those questions, and so much more, below.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><strong>The Most Common Type of Hair Loss<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hair loss can be caused by a number of things\u2014 from stress to genetics, hormone changes, and other illnesses\u2014 but one of the most common forms of hair loss is <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/medlineplus.gov\/genetics\/condition\/androgenetic-alopecia\/#causes\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">androgenetic alopecia<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, better known as male pattern baldness or female pattern hair loss.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">An estimated 50 million men and 30 million women in the U.S. experience androgenetic alopecia.

Typically, each strand of hair will grow from the follicle for two to six years before it enters a resting period of several months and then falls out.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Androgens help to control this cycle. Androgens overstimulate the follicles, causing shorter growth periods and delaying regrowth cycles.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><strong>The Endocannabinoid System and Hair Loss<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The endocannabinoid system is described by <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.medicalnewstoday.com\/articles\/endocannabinoid\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Medical News Today<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> as \u201can active and complex cell signaling network\u201d that \u201cinvolves a combination of endocannabinoids, enzymes, and cannabinoid receptors that help regulate several functions in the human body.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We also know that cannabinoids like CBD and THCV also work through the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.veriheal.com\/blog\/piecing-together-the-endocannabinoidome-charting-the-next-frontier\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">broader endocannabinoidome (eCBome)<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, an expansion pack of the ECS.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sciencedirect.com\/science\/article\/abs\/pii\/S0165614709001072\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Available studies<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> indicate that, in addition to playing a role in processes like pain, appetite, immunity, and memory, the endocannabinoid system also plays a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/17567570\/#:~:text=Since%20we%20successfully,signaling%20in%20general.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">role in hair growth<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Researchers believe the endocannabinoid system in the skin supports the proliferation and differentiation of hair follicle cells, both of which play a crucial role in hair growth.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">They also suggest that activating a specific endocannabinoid receptor, CB1, may slow hair growth. Therefore, using a CB1 antagonist\u2014a compound that blocks this receptor\u2014could potentially stimulate hair production.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>READ: <a class=\"sc-keVmGr gFomhY\" href=\"https:\/\/www.veriheal.com\/blog\/how-to-make-diy-cbd-infused-hair-products-at-home\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">How To Make DIY CBD-Infused Hair Products At Home<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Using CBD for Hair Loss<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cannabidiol, or CBD, is a CB1 negative modulator and works on eCBome receptors like TRP.

Current research indicates that it works better on men than women, though both biological sexes experience some level of regrowth.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s important to note that scientists believe the effects of CBD on hair growth are dose-dependent, meaning that using too much could actually lead to an increase in shedding rates. It seems that using 3\u20134 milligrams of CBD topically per day is the correct dosage amount for most people in this small study. You can also use CBD alongside minoxidil and finasteride, as it works through different biological systems.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.veriheal.com\/blog\/exploring-thcv-the-energizing-and-appetite-suppressing-cannabinoid\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">THCV is a known<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> CB1 inverse agonist and antagonist, meaning it blocks and does the opposite of THC at CB1.

Studies have shown that it lowers inflammation, which helps when hair loss results from inflammatory conditions like eczema and psoriasis. It can also interact with the endocannabinoid system to help regulate sebum, or oil, production, which plays a role in overall scalp health.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Finding the Right Product<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">From limited evidence, scientists think that using CBD topically, via products like serums, shampoos, or hair oils, is the best cannabis-based option for combating hair loss. One <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/articles\/PMC10251293\/#:~:text=A%202021%20case%20study%5B26,in%20the%20hair%20follicle%20cells.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2021 study<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> found that CBD-rich hemp extract used topically led to a 93.5% average increase in hair regrowth.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.veriheal.com\/blog\/how-to-make-a-cannabis-tincture-and-why-they-are-beneficial\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">plenty of brands<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> that offer CBD-infused hair and scalp products, but some of the highest-rated include Vegamour, Prose, and R+Co. When looking for a product, avoid those with high alcohol content, which can dry out the scalp, and synthetic fragrances, which can cause adverse reactions. Instead, look for options made with full-spectrum or broad-spectrum oils and low THC levels (it is thought that, unlike CBD, THC may lead to increased hair loss).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At this point, researchers are not suggesting CBD as an alternative to prescription medications, but as an addition to them. Active ingredients like minoxidil and finasteride interact with different systems in your body, and attack hair loss from other angles. Unless your doctor suggests otherwise, you should not replace your prescription medication with CBD.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Hair to Stay!<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Unfortunately, CBD is not a miracle product that will stop hair loss in its tracks. However, it has proven to help slow shedding and promote regrowth. When added to a healthy hair routine, the majority of users find that it produces notable results.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once the correct dosage is determined, there have been <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/37287996\/#:~:text=The%20effects%20of%20CBD%20on,receptor%2D1%20(TRPV1).\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">no reported adverse effects<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, meaning it&#8217;s likely safe for use in most people.
