First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a treatment made from umbilical cord stem cell exosomes can help young men with male pattern baldness grow thicker, fuller hair. About 59 men aged 18-35 will receive either the exosome injections or standard minoxidil lotion. The goal is to see if the exosomes are safe and more effective than current treatments.
