5 / 5 resultscommunity Hair loss treatment iceberg: what does it look like?
Hair loss treatments range from common options like biotin, minoxidil, and finasteride to more obscure methods like RU58841 and experimental drugs. Hair transplants are widely known, while treatments like stool transplants and spironolactone are less common.
community Could RU58841 actually worsen hairloss?
The user experienced worsening hair density after using finasteride, dutasteride, and RU58841, suspecting RU58841 might be the cause. They are considering stopping RU58841 after a scalp biopsy, while others share mixed experiences with RU58841's effectiveness.
community Popular hair loss drug linked to higher suicide risk: compared to non-users, finasteride (Proscar/ Propecia) users have a markedly increased risk of depression, anxiety, and suicidal thoughts. Over 30 years of observation, 19,320 suicides were expected.
Finasteride users may have an increased risk of depression, anxiety, and suicidal thoughts, though some attribute these issues to hair loss itself. The link between finasteride and mental health effects is debated, with varying user experiences.
community We already know how to permanently fix hair loss. The science is done. The only thing missing is the funding to run one experiment.
A permanent hair loss solution could involve reprogramming hair follicles to resist DHT using mRNA and siRNA. However, high costs, safety concerns, and the pharmaceutical industry's preference for ongoing treatments over one-time cures are major obstacles, with finasteride and minoxidil remaining standard treatments.
community Keeping ru58841 hair gains with only finasteride
A user started using RU58841 before finasteride for hair loss and is now considering stopping RU58841 while continuing finasteride. They are asking if others have maintained hair gains from RU58841 after stopping it, but one response suggests it's risky to stop RU58841 if they want to keep their hair gains.
