The conversation discusses the risks and methods of ingesting liquid minoxidil for hair loss. Concerns include dosing accuracy, safety of ingredients, and potential side effects compared to using oral minoxidil tablets.
community I’m someone who was supposed to be prematurely bald. My hair loss started at 15, I started finasteride at 17, switched to dutasteride at 18, now at 19 this is my situation, thoughts? I know my life wouldn’t be that different if I was bald, I just feel more confident with hair..
A user's journey with hair loss, starting with finasteride at age 17 and switching to dutasteride at 18. The post provides insight on how minoxidil helped initially but quitting it caused some regrowth that was regained when switching to dutasteride. There is also discussion about starting finasteride as young as 17 years old for those who may be worried about potential physical development issues.
community Action plan without finasteride
A user shared their hair loss treatment plan using Revita tablets, Sulforaphane, Minoxidil, and microneedling, avoiding finasteride due to side effects. Replies suggest that without finasteride, the plan is unlikely to be effective, and recommend either using finasteride or shaving their head.
community Mechanism of action of alfatradiol (17 alpha estradiol)
The conversation discusses the mechanism of action of alfatradiol (17 alpha estradiol) in treating hair loss. It explores theories that it either inhibits 5 alpha reductase to prevent T->DHT conversion or aromatizes scalp T into 17-alpha-estradiol to save hair.
community We all regret not acting on hair loss sooner. What is something else we can prevent if we act now?
The conversation discusses the importance of early action in various aspects of life such as healthy eating, skincare, fitness, sleep, financial planning, and career development to prevent future health issues, regret, and financial hardship. Specific treatments mentioned include using sunscreen and tretinoin for anti-aging skincare.
