Regrowth after 9 months of DHT blockers, and 6 months of HRT Transgender 11/6/2025
A 20-year-old saw significant hair regrowth after 9 months of using DHT blockers (finasteride and dutasteride) and 6 months of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) with estradiol. The regrowth is attributed to low testosterone and high estradiol levels, without using Minoxidil.

Stopping minoxidil causes significant hair loss, as continued use is necessary for maintaining gains. Combining minoxidil with finasteride may help maintain hair, but both treatments are typically lifelong commitments.
community I donβt understand this, is he equating taking Fin with being on HRT?
The conversation is about using finasteride and testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) for hair loss and their role in gender-affirming care. It debates whether these treatments are considered hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and their implications for both cisgender and transgender individuals.
community 10 months of minoxidil + cheating
A user shared their positive experience with hair regrowth using minoxidil, hormone replacement therapy, and cyproterone acetate during their male-to-female transition. Another user discussed their successful hair transplant after transitioning and using finasteride, highlighting the challenges of hair loss and regrowth during transition.
community Anything stronger than DUT out there?
The conversation discusses seeking a stronger treatment than Dutasteride (DUT) for hair loss. Suggestions include combining DUT with RU58841, increasing DUT dosage, and using transgender hormone replacement therapy or testosterone blockers, though some options may have feminizing side effects.
community When did your regrowth level out?
Hair regrowth typically levels out after several months of treatment with finasteride, dutasteride, and minoxidil, with many users experiencing stabilization rather than significant regrowth. Starting treatment early is crucial, as regrowth is rare beyond Norwood 3 without additional interventions like hair transplants.
