Pumpkin Seed Oil

Pumpkin seed oil (PSO) has been shown to block the action of 5-alpha reductase and to have antiandrogenic effects on rats. This randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind study was designed to investigate the efficacy and tolerability of PSO for treatment of hair growth in male patients with mild to moderate androgenetic alopecia (AGA). 76 male patients with AGA received 400 mg of PSO per day or a placebo for 24 weeks. Change over time in scalp hair growth was evaluated by four outcomes: assessment of standardized clinical photographs by a blinded investigator; patient self-assessment scores; scalp hair thickness; and scalp hair counts. Reports of adverse events were collected throughout the study. After 24 weeks of treatment, self-rated improvement score and self-rated satisfaction scores in the PSO-treated group were higher than in the placebo group (P = 0.013, 0.003). The PSO-treated group had more hair after treatment than at baseline, compared to the placebo group (P<0.001). Mean hair count increases of 40% were observed in PSO-treated men at 24 weeks, whereas increases of 10% were observed in placebo-treated men (P<0.001). Adverse effects were not different in the two groups.

I read with interest the article by Saadat et al. entitled "Measurements of Hair in Normal Newborns" (Pediatrics 57:960, June 1976). May I, through the courtesy of your columns, draw the authors' attention to the study which we published in 1974 entitled "Neonatal Hair as a Record of Intrauterine Nutrition."1 In this study, using the scanning electron microscope, we measured scalp hair diameters serially from the hair root to the tip. We studied three groups of infants, a well-grown group of term infants; a group of very-small-for-dates term infants; and a group of preterm infants.
