The conversation discusses the potential of long-chain unsaturated fatty acids, like oleic and linoleic acid, as an additional treatment for hair loss, which may inhibit the enzyme responsible for converting testosterone to DHT and promote hair growth. Users humorously suggest using oils topically and discuss other hair loss treatments, but the main focus is on the science behind fatty acids and their role in hair health.

The conversation is about the lack of improvement in hair loss after using Pyrilutamide for 14 weeks, with the original poster unable to use Finasteride due to depression. Replies suggest that Pyrilutamide, like RU58841, may not work for everyone, and a more potent drug is being developed by Kintor.

A manager told an employee to stop using minoxidil, fearing it could unintentionally cause hair growth in others. The conversation is filled with humorous and sarcastic responses, questioning the manager's logic and suggesting the employee continue using the treatment secretly.

Minoxidil caused water retention and gastrointestinal issues for the user, which improved after stopping the medication. The user is now using finasteride and topical minoxidil, experiencing excessive urination and concerns about systemic absorption.

The user is considering adding oral minoxidil to their current hair loss treatment, which includes dutasteride and occasional finasteride, due to concerns about hair thinning and potential shedding. They are unsure if starting both treatments simultaneously could worsen shedding or if oral minoxidil might be beneficial.

The user stopped using minoxidil 5 weeks ago due to facial swelling, which initially subsided but then returned. Despite a healthy lifestyle and normal test results, the user is concerned about the persistent bloating.
