Experimental Methods

A user experimented with applying pure rosemary oil to a single hair strand twice daily, observing increased thickness and pigmentation, but questioned if the oil or the application method caused the change. Some users noted rosemary oil might be as effective as 2% minoxidil for hair growth, though others warned about potential harm from using undiluted oil.

The conversation discusses the lack of experiments combining verteporfin and microneedling for hair loss treatment. The user expresses interest in participating in a group buy to try this method.

A user experimented with applying hot water to their scalp to potentially stimulate hair growth, noting reduced dandruff but uncertain hair loss results. They started this method due to side effects from minoxidil and are considering taking a break to observe changes.

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.

Take 1mg finasteride daily as the standard approach; adjust only if side effects occur. Many users experiment unnecessarily with doses and methods, complicating treatment.

Minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841 are discussed as treatments for hair loss. User feedback suggests 2-deoxy-D-ribose is ineffective.
