A Comparison of Intralesional Triamcinolone Hexacetonide and Triamcinolone Acetonide in Alopecia Areata

The user is undergoing treatment for hair loss using finasteride, Kenalog injections, and Clobetasol, along with vitamin D and collagen supplements. They are considering additional treatments like minoxidil and microneedling, and there is discussion about whether the hair loss is due to stress, alopecia areata, or a scarring condition like lichen planopilaris.

The user is experiencing diffuse thinning and inflammation despite using 2.5mg dutasteride daily, ciclopirox, and ketoconazole shampoos. They are considering treatments like hydroxychloroquine and JAK inhibitors due to suspected scarring alopecia and have faced challenges in obtaining a scalp biopsy.

Topical tacrolimus is being considered for androgenetic alopecia, though its effectiveness is unproven. Other treatments mentioned include minoxidil, dutasteride, cyclosporine, and teicoplanin, with discussions on blocking the prolactin receptor for hair growth.

The user is experiencing diffuse thinning and receded hairline, using dutasteride, minoxidil, and ketoconazole without regrowth, and was prescribed clobetasol propionate 0.05% with salicylic acid for possible inflammation. Other users caution against using the strong steroid without a serious condition, sharing experiences of adverse effects and alternative treatments for scalp issues.

The user visited a trichologist due to ineffective topical finasteride treatment for hair loss. The trichologist recommended a new regimen including a two-month course of locoidon (cortisone 0.1%), followed by a solution containing minoxidil, hydrocortisone butirrate, estrone, progesterone, tocopherol acetate, trichosol, and transcutol.

Orient Bio is developing a PLGA formulated version of Cyclosporine A to stimulate hair growth without its immunosuppressant effects. Users discuss various treatments like Clascoterone, PP405, minoxidil, and tacrolimus, expressing hope for new developments and sharing personal experiences with these treatments.
