    inhibit male sex hormones like testosterone

    Antiandrogenic effects refer to the actions of substances that inhibit the effects of androgens, which are male sex hormones like testosterone. These substances can block androgen receptors or reduce androgen production, and are often used in treatments for conditions like prostate cancer, androgenic alopecia (male-pattern baldness), and hirsutism (excessive hair growth in women).

      community Does melatonin dissolve in isopropyl alcohol

      in Technology  7 upvotes 1 year ago
      The conversation discusses making a topical melatonin solution for hair loss treatment, questioning if isopropyl alcohol can dissolve melatonin. Melatonin is soluble in lipids and alcohol, but it's unstable and should be mixed fresh regularly; it may help hair growth by affecting certain cellular signaling pathways and has anti-androgenic effects.

      community Keto 2% halted my insane shed immediately

      in Ketoconazole  58 upvotes 8 months ago
      Ketoconazole 2% shampoo stopped a user's severe hair shedding after just two uses, a result not achieved by finasteride or oral minoxidil. Some users suggest the shampoo's anti-androgenic properties may help with hair loss, while others think the shedding might have stopped naturally or due to the end of a shedding phase.

      community Is ketoconazole shampoo bullshit?

      in Ketoconazole  45 upvotes 1 year ago
      The conversation is about the effectiveness of ketoconazole shampoo for hair loss. The conclusion is that ketoconazole shampoo can help with dandruff and seborrheic dermatitis, but it is not a strong enough treatment to stop or regrow hair. It is recommended to use it as an adjunct treatment along with finasteride or dutasteride.
