Key treatments for hair preservation include minoxidil, finasteride/dutasteride, and microneedling, with additional options like specific shampoos, oils, biotin, zinc, tretinoin, clascoterone, and low-level laser therapy. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle, reducing stress, and addressing nutrient deficiencies can also support hair health.
community Going to try and reverse MPB naturally.
A user is trying to reverse male pattern baldness (MPB) naturally by taking high doses of Vitamin D, improving diet, exercising, reducing stress, and other lifestyle changes, but plans to use finasteride if no results are seen in 60 days. Other users are skeptical, advising medical treatments like finasteride and warning against potential vitamin D overdose and the ineffectiveness of natural remedies for genetic hair loss.
community Here are the results from my journey! I used saw palmetto tablets instead of Finasteride(I was afraid of using it), 5% Minoxidil spray and Derma Pen once a week 1.5mm.
The user shared their positive hair regrowth experience using saw palmetto tablets, 5% minoxidil spray, and a Derma Pen. The conversation debates the effectiveness of saw palmetto versus finasteride, with some advocating for natural treatments and others emphasizing the proven results of finasteride and minoxidil, often in combination with microneedling.
community 7+ years fin user, stopped saw palmetto/rosemary oil 3 months ago..biggest regret
Stopping saw palmetto and rosemary oil led to significant hair loss for a long-term finasteride user. Resuming saw palmetto caused side effects, and there is debate about its effectiveness and the potential impact of oxycodone on hair loss.
community To the late responders of finasteride. How long did it take to finally see results?
Finasteride can take over a year to show results, with some users seeing significant improvements after 1.5 to 3.5 years. Patience is key, and combining treatments like minoxidil may help.
