Hair loss theory involves 3alpha-hydroxysteroid reductase (3AHD) converting DHT to androstenol. Discussion explores potential treatments and encourages more research.
community Dutasteride likely reduces Bone Mineral Density
Dutasteride may reduce bone mineral density, but there's no increased risk of osteoporosis or fractures compared to finasteride. Users suggest resistance training to counter potential bone effects.
community Is getting on Dut at 21 a bad idea after taking Fin since 18?
A user is considering switching from finasteride to dutasteride for hair loss at age 21, worried about potential side effects on bone and brain development. Another user shared their positive experience with dutasteride, noting minimal body hair and no side effects.
community Published in Nature: Osteopontin, a protein involved in the growth of hair on moles could be the key to our troubles.
Osteopontin, a protein involved in hair growth on moles, may help with hair loss. However, it is also linked to Alzheimer's, cancer, and bone development, so caution is advised.
community IGFBP‐rP1 is a potential therapeutic target in androgenic alopecia
IGFBP‐rP1 shows potential for treating androgenic alopecia by influencing hair cycle transitions. Increasing IGF-1 levels may have similar effects to Minoxidil and 5-AR inhibitors in reducing hair loss.
