community Scientists have found that a naturally occurring sugar in humans and animals could be used as a topical treatment for male pattern baldness | In the study, mice received 2dDR-SA gel for 21 days, resulting in greater number of blood vessels and an increase in hair follicle length and denseness
Scientists discovered a sugar gel, 2dDR-SA, that increased hair growth in mice. Users discussed its potential, comparing it to other treatments like Minoxidil and finasteride.
community Yeah, it’s working 👍🏻 Nov 2023 to March 2024
Animajax, who started off completely bald, has seen hair regrowth using finasteride 1.25mg, oral minoxidil 2.5mg, occasional topical minoxidil, dermastamping, benzoyl peroxide, and tretinoin. They recently added nizoral and plan to switch to a topical solution combining minoxidil and dutasteride.
community Long-term risks of finasteride are overplayed, here's why (a comprehensive review on the available research)
Finasteride's long-term risks are often exaggerated; studies showing negative effects typically involve high doses or animal subjects. For those taking 1mg daily for hair loss, there is no significant evidence of severe side effects.
