5 / 1000+ resultscommunity Having androgen receptor density and sensitivity at wrong f*ing place
The conversation discusses hair loss treatments, focusing on the use of topical minoxidil, microneedling, finasteride, and dutasteride, while debating the role of testosterone and DHT in hair loss. It also touches on the potential liver health impacts of these treatments and the genetic sensitivity of hair follicles to androgens.
community The closest thing to a cure before hair cloning or genetic via?
The conversation discusses using finasteride or dutasteride to reduce DHT, CosmeRNA to target androgen receptors, and Minoxidil as a vasodilator for hair growth. The regimen aims to maintain hair by addressing DHT-AR ratio and continuous Minoxidil use.
community Recommendation for Topical Androgen Inhibitor While on 0.5mg/Day Dutasteride
The user is taking dutasteride 0.5mg daily and seeks a topical androgen inhibitor for the scalp. They are looking for recommendations to enhance their hair loss treatment.
community Fun thought experiment about halting hair loss permamently
A user proposed genetically engineering scalp stem cells to stop androgen receptors from causing hair loss. Others discussed the feasibility, existing research, and potential issues with this approach, including targeting the correct cells and unintended effects.
community Is it true that most hair loss treatments fall into one of two categories? If not, what am I missing?
Hair loss treatments are generally categorized as anti-androgens, like finasteride and RU58841, which prevent hair loss by targeting DHT, and growth stimulators, such as minoxidil, rosemary oil, microneedling, and LLLT, which promote hair growth by increasing blood flow and growth factors. The user is seeking to confirm these categories and understand if there are other treatments or mechanisms of action.
