Androgenetic Alopecia – Medical Management

A 22-year-old has been using dutasteride, oral minoxidil, platelet-rich plasma therapy, and low-level laser therapy for hair loss but is still experiencing progression from Norwood 2 to 3. Others suggest increasing dutasteride dosage or trying additional treatments like RU58841 or topical finasteride.

The review discusses traditional hair loss treatments like minoxidil and finasteride, and newer options like Low-Level Laser Therapy, microneedling, and platelet-rich plasma for androgenetic alopecia. It highlights the need for more high-quality trials to assess these treatments' effectiveness and standardized protocols for emerging therapies.

A woman with androgenetic alopecia is using a treatment of topical finasteride with 7% minoxidil, spironolactone, and supplements like iron, vitamin D, biotin, and zinc. She is considering additional treatments like PRP and laser therapy but has not seen significant hair regrowth yet.

The user is using a combination of finasteride, minoxidil, ketoconazole, pumpkin seeds, laser therapy, PRP, dermaroller, and vitamins for hair loss. They are advised to switch to oral finasteride and be patient, as results may take up to a year, with a hair transplant as a potential future option.
