Creatine, Working out and Hair Loss

[smacker]

Hiya,

Does anyone have any opinions on whether the above will increase loss?

What makes you think it might the stuff does not have hair loss as one of it's side effects and as for working out as long as you do not use steroids it can release loads of lovely chemicals into your brain and make you feel a bit better about your hair loss and will not do your male pattern baldness any harm unlike steroids. I would suggest you research the effects of taking Creatine because it does have it's draw backs. :roll:

 

[Guest]

Although some people would say it does have an affect I don't think there has been any study to prove this.

Maybe it was to do with the fact you have more T in your body when you work out and nothing to do with the Creatine.

I disagree. I took creatine 2 years back. It caused significant hair loss to myself on the crown. When i stopped taking it and continued to work out it grew back.

There are people in HLH that use creatine topically, and report 'good results' with it.

My firm opinion as a medstudent is that Working out + protein supplement will increase hairloss due to extra testostorone in your serum.

What about running?

...But doesnt creatine help your body store and use more water in the muscles then usual?......yea well then if thats the case how does that have anything to do with higher test levels?...

in my opinion creatine does not help you loss more hair.

Long distance running/intensive cardio - from what I have heard - lowers serum testosterone. I haven´t read anything about it but I´m sure that it´s easily obtainable knowledge.

And I bet that´s common for people losing hair - lifting weights and eating alot of protein. It hit me so hard when I saw my friend the other day - in 4 months he has put on soo much muscle (he won´t touch any steroids, also a medstudent) and lost soooo much hair. He´s one of those guys who almost look better without hair so he doesn´t mind - but still.

Funny how peopel think if you eat protein and work out youll gain big muscle........you need other minerals such as amino acids for that protien to even get into yuor system...you would just sh*t it out.

I concur, 'extensive' endurance runing will leave you with lower testoserone levels (basically exhaust the sh*t out of yourself). From what I've read, this is around 1hr +

Is this what crap they teach med students these days? Working out will raise T levels but for a short time and at such a minimal level that will have no effect on hairloss. Just another myth like wanking causing hairloss. Friggin sick of some of the BS I read on these sites.
