    topical treatment blocking androgen receptors to combat hair loss

    Pyrilutamide, also known as KX-826, is a topical non-steroidal anti-androgen being developed for the treatment of androgenetic alopecia (pattern hair loss). It works by blocking androgen receptors in hair follicles, which can help reduce hair loss and potentially promote hair regrowth.

      community Pyrilutamide vs topical finasteride

      in Finasteride/Dutasteride  2 upvotes 1 week ago
      The user is considering switching to topical finasteride or pyrilutamide to stabilize hair loss before a hair transplant, currently using oral minoxidil and finasteride. Suggestions include sticking to the current regimen as it is already potent, and caution against using pyrilutamide from unreliable sources.

      Pyrilutamide is discussed as an effective hair loss treatment by some users, despite skepticism due to limited data and underwhelming trial results. Users compare it to finasteride, minoxidil, and RU58841, with some expressing interest in its potential as an adjunct treatment.
