community Why does MPB only affect the scalp

in Research/Science 14 upvotes 1 year ago

Male pattern baldness (MPB) may be influenced by androgen receptors in scalp hair follicles and potentially poor blood flow. Transplanted hair is not immune to DHT, and factors like inflammation and scalp tension might also contribute to hair loss.

community Finasteride and male phenotypes

5 upvotes 11 years ago

Finasteride's effectiveness and side effects may vary based on male phenotypes, with some users noting differences in response related to body and facial hair characteristics. Some users report success with lower doses, while others experience side effects, suggesting individual variability in response to the treatment.

community Did Dutasteride change how you look physically? your facial profile such as skin thickness, fat distribution or softness?

in Finasteride/Dutasteride 51 upvotes 1 year ago

Dutasteride and finasteride can cause changes in physical appearance, like more feminine features and increased water retention. Users report side effects such as reduced libido, weight gain, and improved skin clarity, while some notice no significant changes.

community Why some people experience problems on Finasteride/Dutasteride (my theory)

in Research/Science 18 upvotes 9 months ago

Some people have side effects from finasteride and dutasteride due to hormonal predisposition, especially if DHT dominant. Alternatives like RU58841, Pyrilutamide, and Breezula are suggested to target scalp androgen receptors without altering overall hormones.

community My Theory Of Androgenic Alopecia

16 upvotes 10 months ago

Hair loss is linked to cellular physiology and the IGF-1 to TGF-B1 ratio, not just androgen sensitivity. The theory lacks evidence, while finasteride and minoxidil are effective treatments.
