ABSTRACT

Objective: Hair loss is associated with negative emotional impacts, affecting the well-being of both men and women, leading to stress, diminished body image satisfaction, reduced quality of life, lower self-esteem, and diminished confidence. This research aims to clinically validate the effectiveness of vitamin hair gummies in individuals experiencing hair loss while enhancing overall hair and nail health. Trial Registration: The clinical trial was registered with the Clinical Trial Registry-India (CTRI) with the registration number CTRI/2023/03/050199 on March 01, 2023. URL: https://ctri.nic.in/Clinicaltrials/pdf_generate.php. Methods: A total of 65 participants with hair loss and diverse hair and nail health issues were included in our study. Subjects were divided into two groups: Group A: Hair Vitamin Gummies, and Group B: Placebo Gummies, in a 2:1 ratio. Treatment duration was of 90 days. Results: The findings demonstrate that Hair Vitamin Gummies effectively treat hair loss, positively impacting various parameters related to hair and nail health. The test group exhibited significant increases in hair density (26%), thickness (16%), and length (118.98%), as well as accelerated hair growth rate (108.03%). Additionally, there was a notable reduction in hair fall and dandruff (70.32%). Limitations: The study is limited by a small sample size and a relatively short follow-up period. Conclusion: This study suggests that Hair Vitamin Gummies are a safe and effective treatment for hair loss and related hair and nail health issues. The unique combination of ingredients in the formulation may synergistically enhance the product's efficacy.
