Gummy bears for baldness? new study tests sweet solution
NCT ID NCT07637071
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Aug 18, 2026 · Updated 3 times
Summary
This pilot study will test whether a daily gummy supplement called Xtressé can safely improve hair growth in 40 men with male pattern baldness. Participants take two gummies each day for six months, and researchers measure changes in hair density and thickness using special cameras. The study is small and has no placebo group, so results will be preliminary.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Xtressé Hair Growth Gummies (proprietary X-3 BioActive Blend with plant extracts and regenerative compounds)
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could point toward a convenient, daily supplement option to help men with hair thinning improve hair density and thickness.
- What could go wrong
- This is a very small pilot study (40 men) with no placebo group, so results may not be reliable or generalizable. The supplement is not a drug and may have limited or no effect.
