Does melatonin promote hair growth?
Yes, scientific research suggests that melatonin may promote hair growth. A review (see the link below) published in the International Journal of Trichology indicates that topical application of melatonin can be a viable treatment for androgenetic alopecia, commonly known as male pattern baldness.
Throughout various studies, it was observed that the use of melatonin led to a significant reduction in the severity of this condition.

In the search for alternative agents to oral finasteride and topical minoxidil for the treatment of androgenetic alopecia (AGA), melatonin, a potent antioxidant and growth modulator, was identified as a promising candidate based on in vitro and in vivo studies. One pharmacodynamic study on topical application of melatonin and four clinical pre-post studies were performed in patients with androgenetic alopecia or general hair loss and evaluated by standardized questionnaires, TrichoScan, 60-second hair count test and hair pull test.
