      A product that makes hair look thicker and healthier without promoting regrowth. Discussions include treatments like minoxidil, finasteride, red light therapy, and a serum with caffeine and peptides, with mixed effectiveness opinions.

      community Surprisingly thorough study on He-Shou-Wu/Fo Ti

      in Research/Science  14 upvotes 2 years ago
      He Shou Wu (Fo Ti) extract was found to prolong the hair growth phase, inhibit 5-alpha-reductase (like finasteride), reduce androgen receptors, and increase growth factors, potentially outperforming minoxidil in recovering hair follicle size after DHT exposure. Two compounds, emodin and TSG, are identified as responsible for these effects and warrant further investigation.

      community Apparently you can try PP405 right now!?

      in Research/Science  33 upvotes 4 months ago
      PP405 is likely a scam, with concerns about its legitimacy and safety, as it may cause unintended tissue growth. Users suggest sticking to known treatments like finasteride and minoxidil.
