Study to Evaluate Xtressé Gummy Supplement in Men With Androgenic Alopecia
A Multi-center, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo- Controlled Pilot Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Xtressé™ Gummy-Based Nutraceutical Supplement in Men With Androgenic Alopecia
The goal of this study is to determine if Xtresse' gummy is safe and may help regrow hair in men with androgenic alopecia (common pattern hair loss). Forty-eight participants will be randomly assigned to receive either Xtresse' active gummy or placebo. Neither staff not participant will know which treatment is given.
The main aims of this trial are:
- To confirm using photographic analysis, changes in the quality, volume, and thickness of hair.
- To gauge patient satisfaction with hair changes and application process.
- Monitor and report any adverse events associated with the daily intake of Xtressé
Participants who qualify will complete 3 in-person visits. Participants will be given a 90-day supply of the gummies at visits 1 (after voluntary consent is given) and 2 to cover the 6-month study period. Photographs and scalp analysis will be performed at each visit to measure changes in hair volume, thickness, and growth.
