6 / 6 resultscommunity Seen Alfatradiol mentioned on here a few times recently and found this study - in case anybody is interested. Translated from German.
Alfatradiol (0.025%) is an effective and safe treatment for androgenetic alopecia in both men and women, increasing anagen hair rates with minimal side effects. Users discuss its cost-effectiveness and ease of use compared to other treatments like finasteride and RU58841, with some combining it with stemoxydine and Minoxidil.
community If RU58841 is such an effective anti androgen
RU58841 is discussed as a topical anti-androgen for hair loss, but its effectiveness and safety are not well-documented, leading to mixed opinions and experiences among users. Some combine it with finasteride, but concerns about side effects and lack of FDA approval limit its popularity.
community The dread shed is obliterating my hair (22M). Been on treatment for about 1.5-2 months. First 8 pics are from a month ago and the rest are my current state. Will this regrow?
A 22-year-old is experiencing significant hair shedding and is using multiple treatments, including oral and topical minoxidil, finasteride, topical dutasteride, ketoconazole shampoo, and considering adding RU58841 and stemoxydine. Others advise patience, suggesting sticking to finasteride and minoxidil for at least a year before evaluating results, as initial shedding is normal and adding too many treatments can be counterproductive.
community When’s a good time for a diffuse thinner to incorporate minoxidil into their regimen?
A 31-year-old has been on finasteride for 8 years and is experiencing less dense hair and itchiness, and is considering adding minoxidil or RU58841 to their regimen. They are also inquiring about the benefits of oral versus topical finasteride.
community I Think it is Over for me Bros. I'm Cooked.
A 24-year-old user tried finasteride, oral minoxidil, and dutasteride for hair loss but saw no improvement and was advised by their dermatologist to accept baldness. Other users suggested alternative treatments like RU58841, pyrilutamide, microneedling, and checking for underlying conditions or lifestyle factors.
community Switch from fin to dut and its worse
Switching from finasteride to dutasteride can worsen hair loss for some men due to increased testosterone levels. Topical treatments like RU58841 and Pyrilutamide are suggested to counteract these effects, but individual responses vary.
