      Minoxidil with alcohol and propylene glycol was more effective than non-alcohol versions, and RU58841 worked best in a non-water-based solution. Oral finasteride showed better results than topical, despite side effects; microneedling and tretinoin worsened hair loss, and PRP was only helpful when younger.

      community Experience with only Minoxidil and Nizoral

      Minoxidil and Nizoral alone are unlikely to stop hair loss effectively, as they do not address the root cause, which is often DHT. Many users suggest incorporating a 5AR inhibitor like finasteride or dutasteride for better results, despite concerns about potential side effects.

      in Treatment  3 upvotes 2 months ago
      The user is experiencing hair loss after a hair transplant and is considering using fluridil (Eucapil) and possibly alfatradiol as treatments, as they couldn't tolerate finasteride or minoxidil. The manufacturer of Eucapil confirmed they won't produce higher concentrations due to lack of efficacy.

      The user has been using a strong combination of hair loss treatments for 16 months, including Finasteride, Minoxidil, Dutasteride, and RU-58841, but their hair loss has worsened. They're questioning whether their high testosterone levels or residual scalp DHT are causing further hair loss, with a reply suggesting that even small amounts of DHT can cause hair loss if one is sensitive to it.
