      community From Perfect Hair to This: 2 Years of Chronic TE + Unmasked AGA.

      in Treatment  5 upvotes 5 months ago
      A 25-year-old is experiencing chronic telogen effluvium (TE) and androgenetic alopecia (AGA) after surgery, using finasteride, red light therapy, and supplements, and considering oral minoxidil despite heart concerns. They are unsure whether to start minoxidil before or after an upcoming surgery, which may trigger another hair shed.

      community The mechanism of androgenic alopecia

       36 upvotes 11 months ago
      DHT may inhibit hair growth by affecting mitochondrial function, leading to hair follicle miniaturization. Treatments like minoxidil and PP405 may promote hair growth by altering metabolic pathways, potentially counteracting DHT's effects.

       22 upvotes 1 year ago
      Combining therapies like scyllo-inositol, alpha-ketoglutarate, and autophagy-inducing supplements may enhance hair growth and prevent hair loss. Reporting individual results can accelerate progress in hair loss treatments.
