研究概览
简要总结
The goal of this study is to learn if dietary supplement works to help with improving hair condition in subjects with occasional hair loss. It will also learn about its safety. The main question it aims to answer is:
• Does the dietary supplement reduce the number of hair lost by participants? Researchers will compare dietary supplement to a placebo (a look-alike substance that contains no drug) to see if it works to reduce hair loss.
Participants will:
- Take dietary supplement or a placebo every day for 3 months
- Visit the clinic every month for evaluations
