GlossaryCesarean Section

surgical delivery of a baby through abdominal and uterine incisions

A Cesarean Section, often abbreviated as C-section, is a surgical procedure used to deliver a baby through incisions made in the mother's abdomen and uterus. This method is typically employed when a vaginal delivery would pose a risk to the mother or baby, such as in cases of fetal distress, abnormal positioning of the baby, or complications like placenta previa.

The conversation is about the lack of improvement in hair loss after using Pyrilutamide for 14 weeks, with the original poster unable to use Finasteride due to depression. Replies suggest that Pyrilutamide, like RU58841, may not work for everyone, and a more potent drug is being developed by Kintor.
