Supplements for Mitochondria Repair: 9 That Actually Work (and How to Test First)
Chronic 'wired-but-tired' fatigue is often a cellular energy problem: damaged, sluggish, or depleted mitochondria that rest alone won't fix.

Chronic 'wired-but-tired' fatigue is often a cellular energy problem: damaged, sluggish, or depleted mitochondria that rest alone won't fix.
PCOS hair fall is androgen-driven follicular miniaturization, not ordinary shedding — it thins the crown and part line while sparing the hairline.
Thinning hair in PCOS is driven by follicle sensitivity to androgens (DHT), not just high testosterone levels — which is why your bloodwork can look 'normal' while your part keeps widening.
PCOS hair loss is androgen-driven, so effective treatment works upstream — lowering androgens and insulin — not at the scalp with serums and shampoos.
'Low mitochondrial energy' isn't one problem — the machinery can be under-fueled, too few in number, oxidatively damaged, or throttled by an upstream drain, and each needs a different fix.
PCOS hair loss is driven by excess free androgens and insulin resistance acting on genetically susceptible follicles — not by shampoo or generic 'hair vitamins.'
PCOS hair thinning is androgen-driven: testosterone is converted to DHT at the follicle by 5-alpha-reductase, miniaturizing hair over successive growth cycles.
An iron panel is five markers read together — ferritin, serum iron, TIBC, transferrin saturation, and often soluble transferrin receptor — not the single 'iron' number most doctors glance at.
Inositol doesn't act on hair follicles — it improves insulin sensitivity, which lowers the excess androgens (and DHT) driving PCOS hair thinning.
PCOS hair loss is androgenetic alopecia driven by DHT acting on genetically sensitive follicles, not ordinary stress shedding — so it needs a hormonal and metabolic fix, not just topicals.
Reverse T3 (rT3) is an inactive mirror-image of active T3 that your body makes on purpose to slow metabolism when it senses stress, illness, injury, or under-fueling.
Insulin resistance is a broken-signal problem, not a calorie or willpower problem — cells stop responding to insulin while blood glucose can look 'normal' for years.
