The Effect of Dietary Modulation of Sulfur Amino Acids on Cystathionine Beta Synthase–Deficient Mice

The conversation discusses the lack of clinical studies on cysteine alone for hair loss, with the original poster already using medications like Minoxidil and finasteride. Suggestions include trying 2ddr as a growth stimulant, though concerns about side effects like gas are mentioned.

A dermatologist prescribed methionine with vitamins for hair loss, but the user is doubtful and plans to seek finasteride in France. The user is unsure why finasteride or minoxidil wasn't prescribed, suspecting concerns about side effects or strength.

Some people have low sulfotransferase enzyme levels, affecting their response to minoxidil. Lifestyle factors, genetics, and diet, like MSM intake, might influence these enzyme levels.

The user does not respond well to minoxidil and is seeking an alternative to Tretinoin to upregulate sulfurtransferase activity for hair loss treatment. No specific alternative treatments were mentioned.

Amino acids, particularly Cysteine, are important for hair growth and may be lacking in a normal diet. Using a protein powder that includes these amino acids can help improve hair growth and strength.

A 36-year-old man with androgenetic alopecia suspects copper and zinc deficiencies may be accelerating hair loss and is supplementing copper to address this. He is also monitoring blood sugar levels due to previous prediabetes concerns and plans to test for insulin resistance.
