      community KX-826: Long-Term Safety Results are out!

      in Research/Science  159 upvotes 11 months ago
      KX-826 initially improves hair growth but declines after 24 weeks, with mild itching as a side effect. Combining it with minoxidil and finasteride may improve results, but long-term effectiveness is uncertain.

      community JXL082 is not PP405 and Everychem followed the wrong lead

      in Research/Science  35 upvotes 2 months ago
      JXL082 is not the same as PP405, leading to a halt in sales and a plan to synthesize the real PP405. There is skepticism about the safety and effectiveness of JXL082 and PP405, with concerns about patent issues and the long-term impact on hair growth.

      community Why don't Minoxidil regenerated hairs become terminal on the head?

      in Minoxidil  101 upvotes 6 months ago
      Minoxidil helps hair growth by increasing blood flow and prolonging the growth phase, but it doesn't address the root cause of hair loss, such as DHT sensitivity. Finasteride can help maintain some gains by blocking DHT, but stopping Minoxidil often leads to hair loss because the new hairs are dependent on it.

      community How true is the statement: dead follicles don't grow back?

      in Research/Science  107 upvotes 7 months ago
      Hair follicles usually go dormant rather than die, and treatments like finasteride, minoxidil, and hormone therapy can sometimes reactivate them, though results vary. Complete regrowth is rare, especially in long-term bald areas, but some individuals see significant improvement with these treatments.

      community Some good news for the future.

      in Research/Science  96 upvotes 8 months ago
      PP-405, a potential hair loss treatment, shows promise in stimulating dormant hair follicles and may help with various hair loss types. Current treatments like Minoxidil are still recommended as PP-405 is in early trials and may take years to become available.
