      community PP405 - A True Breakthrough or Another Disappointment?

      in Research/Science  34 upvotes 8 months ago
      PP405 shows potential for hair growth, with 31% of advanced balding men experiencing over 20% increase in hair density in 8 weeks. However, skepticism persists due to selective data presentation and lack of long-term results, with comparisons to treatments like minoxidil and finasteride.

      PP405 is a potential hair loss treatment that may work by blocking signals that cause hair cells to stop growing, requiring daily application for effectiveness. It could serve as an alternative to minoxidil and finasteride, but it is not yet available on the market and may take several years to be released.

      Finasteride and dutasteride are discussed as preventative treatments for hair loss, with some advocating for early use and others concerned about side effects, especially before full maturity. Many regret not starting these treatments earlier due to their effectiveness in preventing or slowing hair loss.
