    TLDR Noninvasive treatments like minoxidil, finasteride, and low-light laser therapy can help with hair loss.
    The document "Noninvasive Hair Rejuvenation" discusses various noninvasive treatment options for androgenetic alopecia (AGA), the most common hair loss disorder in both men and women. The three FDA-approved treatments for AGA are minoxidil, finasteride, and low-light laser therapy (LLLT). Other promising but non-FDA-approved treatments include platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections, microneedling, antiandrogens, prostaglandin analogues, and adipose injections. Treatments generally take 6 to 12 months to show clinically significant results. The document highlights the need for more rigorous studies on PRP treatments and notes that hair loss can significantly impact self-esteem and quality of life.

      Key treatments for hair preservation include minoxidil, finasteride/dutasteride, and microneedling, with additional options like specific shampoos, oils, biotin, zinc, tretinoin, clascoterone, and low-level laser therapy. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle, reducing stress, and addressing nutrient deficiencies can also support hair health.

      A user is experiencing hair loss despite using dutasteride and oral minoxidil, feeling hopeless and considering a hair system. They are advised to try ketoconazole, seek a second opinion from a dermatologist, and consider treatments like finasteride, RU58841, and hair transplants.

      In this conversation, 4990 discussed various treatments for hair loss, including oral minoxidil, PRP, transplan, Jak inhibitors, Dutasteride, Finasteride, Olumiant, Ketoconazole, RU58841, microneedling, baricitinib, and CCCA. They recommended scalp biopsies in unclear cases of DUPA, twice weekly to twice daily shampooing for topical minoxidil users, and two sessions spaced one month apart with follow up at month three to determine the effectiveness of PRP treatment.
