The conversation humorously discusses an extensive and exaggerated hair loss treatment regimen, including finasteride, dutasteride, minoxidil, pyrilutamide, RU58841, and various other therapies. Despite the numerous treatments, the effectiveness is questioned, and the user humorously considers adding more minoxidil.
community I cry every day, everything is very depressing
A user is experiencing hair loss despite using dutasteride and oral minoxidil, feeling hopeless and considering a hair system. They are advised to try ketoconazole, seek a second opinion from a dermatologist, and consider treatments like finasteride, RU58841, and hair transplants.
community How is there zero improvement with finding the cure?
Hair loss treatments have not advanced since 2018, with finasteride, minoxidil, and RU58841 still being the main options. A permanent cure is unlikely due to the profitability of ongoing treatments.
community Dermatologist says you can’t prevent hair loss and medications don’t work
Finasteride, dutasteride, and minoxidil can help prevent or slow hair loss for many, though results vary. The dermatologist's claim that no medication works is incorrect, as these treatments are effective for some individuals.
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.
