The conversation discusses the potential of long-chain unsaturated fatty acids, like oleic and linoleic acid, as an additional treatment for hair loss, which may inhibit the enzyme responsible for converting testosterone to DHT and promote hair growth. Users humorously suggest using oils topically and discuss other hair loss treatments, but the main focus is on the science behind fatty acids and their role in hair health.
community Diffuse hair loss and scalp biopsies
Scalp biopsies are crucial for diagnosing hair loss conditions like Diffuse Unpatterned Alopecia (DUPA) and retrograde hair loss, as treatments like finasteride and dutasteride may not be effective if other conditions are present. Combining PPAR-GAMMA agonists with retinoids could improve treatments for conditions like Lichen Planopilaris.
community Pyrilutamide update: three months
A user's 3-month experience with pyrilutamide to reduce hair shedding, and how it may not be strong enough to stop the thinning of their hairline. Other users mentioned the effectiveness of minoxidil and finasteride for treating hair loss.
community Boys how is no one seeing positive results from pyrilutamide
Pyrilutimide, a treatment for hair loss; it's effectiveness compared to other treatments such as Finasteride and RU58841; and some users’ experiences with the treatment.
community Minoxidil can prevent hair follicle miniaturization!?
Minoxidil can prevent hair follicle miniaturization, not just stimulate hair growth. Finasteride and dutasteride don't work for everyone, suggesting DHT may not be the sole cause of hair loss; hair loss could be due to multiple factors, including autoimmune conditions.
