HairClone is developing cell replacement treatments to rejuvenate and generate hair follicles, and has launched a crowdfunding campaign. A user expressed skepticism about the need for crowdfunding.
community When you're balding is it an absolute traumatic period of your life or do some people not care as much?
Balding can be traumatic for many, affecting self-esteem and social interactions, while others accept it more easily. Treatments mentioned include finasteride, minoxidil, and RU58841.
community Expectations control for SCUBE3
SCUBE3, a protein linked to hair growth in moles, was discovered over 25 years ago and is being developed by Amplifica for potential hair loss treatment. Concerns exist about SCUBE3's association with cancer, as it is a protein that promotes cell growth, which could potentially trigger cancer development if used for hair growth therapy.
community Researchers working on ways to regenerate lost hair from stem cells identified a recipe for normal hair regeneration in the lab. “A method for cyclical regeneration of hair follicles from hair follicle stem cells and will help make hair follicle regeneration therapy a reality in the near future.”
Hair loss treatments like finasteride, minoxidil, and hair transplants have side effects and limitations. There is hope for future advancements in stem cell therapy and hair follicle regeneration, though skepticism about their effectiveness and timeline persists.
community C’est terrible - at my wits end
A 29-year-old woman is experiencing gradual hair thinning since age 15, suspects Androgenic Alopecia, and has tried 5% minoxidil with little success. She has purchased various hair loss treatments including minoxidil, dutasteride, finasteride, and spironolactone, but is cautious about starting them due to potential interactions with her ADHD medication.
