5 / 7 resultscommunity Finasteride, Minoxidil, Microneedling ➡️
User discusses using Finasteride, Minoxidil, and Microneedling for hair loss. They gradually replaced Finasteride with Dutasteride and stopped using Nizoral shampoo due to shedding.
community Post Finasteride Syndrome, A dangerous lie.
A user initially had side effects from finasteride, attributed them to anxiety and the nocebo effect, and after resuming the drug, experienced positive effects and now warns against misinformation about Post Finasteride Syndrome.
community Fats on your Head to Stop Hair Loss?
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.
community Saying creatine causes loss on fin/dut makes no sense and this is why
The conversation discusses whether creatine causes hair loss for those using finasteride or dutasteride, with some suggesting creatine might increase DHT or upregulate androgen receptors, potentially leading to hair loss. Others argue the evidence is not conclusive, citing limited studies and personal anecdotes, with some avoiding creatine as a precaution.
community Experiment on the effect of calf raises on shedding rate. Volunteers needed.
Volunteers using finasteride and minoxidil are needed to test if intense calf raises increase hair shedding. The goal is to see if overexertion of leg muscles affects hair loss.
