5 / 1000+ resultscommunity I really hate how current hair loss treatment only rely on DHT blockers
The conversation discusses dissatisfaction with current hair loss treatments that mainly focus on DHT blockers like finasteride and dutasteride. Alternative treatments mentioned include RU58841, pyrilutamide, minoxidil, rosemary oil, and future possibilities like hair cloning.
community It’s getting worse. (4 months)
The conversation discusses hair loss treatments, with users suggesting the use of finasteride daily, considering minoxidil for aggressive hair loss, and discussing the normalcy of shedding during treatment. Some users recommend adding Nizoral shampoo and switching to dutasteride for better results.
community ghk-cu is potent 5-ar inhibitor?
GHK-Cu is a potent inhibitor of the type 1 5-alpha reductase enzyme in hair follicles, which may reduce hair loss without the side effects associated with type 2 5-alpha reductase inhibitors. The user previously experienced side effects with 5-alpha reductase inhibitors and is considering GHK-Cu as an alternative.
community FCE 28260: A Forgotten 5α-Reductase Inhibitor
FCE 28260 (PNU 156765), an under-explored 5α-reductase inhibitor, showcases promising results in research by Giudici et al., outperforming well-known treatments like Finasteride in reducing the conversion of testosterone to DHT. Its superior efficacy, demonstrated through lower IC50 values in both natural and human recombinant enzyme studies, suggests it could offer more effective management of DHT-related conditions. Additionally, its lower molecular weight hints at better potential for topical application, potentially offering advantages in treating conditions such as androgenic alopecia. Despite its potential, it has not advanced in development, possibly due to financial limitations, leaving its therapeutic prospects and side effect profile largely unexplored.
community Topical Finasteride Doesn't Directly Reduce 5ar Enzyme on Scalp
Topical Finasteride doesn't directly reduce 5ar enzyme on scalp and has the same mechanism as oral, needing to go through the liver. Users debate the accuracy of this information and discuss various studies and experiences.
