community Does RU58841 potentially cause cancer?

in Research/Science 1 year ago

RU58841 may pose cancer risks due to its antiandrogen properties and lack of long-term safety data. Using it is considered a high-risk experiment with unknown potential for harm.

community Is shedding a good sign for antiandrogens?

1 upvotes 1 year ago

Shedding may indicate potential regrowth when using KX-826, similar to Minoxidil and finasteride. Users report improved hair quality and minor side effects like slight headaches.

community How much would a high dose dutasteride scalp dht inhibition be?

in Finasteride/Dutasteride 10 upvotes 2 years ago

The conversation discusses the potential for high doses of dutasteride to completely inhibit scalp DHT and speculates whether this could cure baldness when combined with a topical antiandrogen. Specific dosages mentioned are 0.5 mg reducing scalp DHT by 55% and 2.5 mg by about 79%.

community Severe dry eye: finasteride vs dutasteride

8 upvotes 5 years ago

Woman uses antiandrogens for hair thinning prevention, experiences severe dry eye with finasteride. Asks if dutasteride could be better despite potential for worse dry eye.

community 22M, dutasteride + spironolactone miracle, I was losing 400-500 hairs everyday, after starting the drugs I completely stopped shedding and experienced crazy regrowth in just 3-4 months

61 upvotes 1 year ago

A 22-year-old male experienced significant hair regrowth and stopped shedding after using dutasteride and spironolactone for 3-4 months.

learn Bicalutamide

Can bicalutamide stop DHT from shrinking your hair follicles? Bicalutamide blocks androgens at the receptor rather than lowering DHT, and some dermatologists prescribe it off-label for women with pattern hair loss. The published evidence is retrospective case series and one small pilot study, with no randomized trial; it is a prescription drug that requires liver monitoring and is contraindicated in pregnancy.

learn Pyrilutamide

Is pyrilutamide a safer alternative to oral antiandrogens like finasteride? Pyrilutamide may be a safer topical alternative to oral antiandrogens like finasteride.

learn Metformin

Does metformin help control DHT levels that trigger androgenic alopecia? Metformin has been shown to lower circulating androgens in women with PCOS, but no published study has measured scalp DHT, 5-alpha reductase activity in the follicle, or hair density in anyone taking it — so its effect on pattern hair loss is untested, and it is not a DHT blocker.
