The DNA Trichotest is considered unreliable for predicting hair loss treatment responses, and topical spironolactone is questioned for its effectiveness and safety in cis males. Finasteride and Dutasteride are recommended as more reliable treatments for androgenic alopecia.
The treatment for androgenetic alopecia involves using finasteride and minoxidil with intense exercise and cold exposure to boost metabolism and reduce androgenic effects, potentially leading to hair regrowth. This approach may activate biological pathways for improved hair and overall health.
A 33-year-old female with androgenic alopecia experienced alopecia areata patches after PRP treatment. She is seeking others' experiences with PRP worsening alopecia areata.
Switching from finasteride to dutasteride can worsen hair loss for some men due to increased testosterone levels. Topical treatments like RU58841 and Pyrilutamide are suggested to counteract these effects, but individual responses vary.
Genetic factors, enzyme activity, and DHT sensitivity affect individual responses to hair loss treatments like finasteride, minoxidil, and dutasteride. Starting treatments early can slow hair loss, but results vary among individuals.
