5 / 1000+ resultscommunity Fin isn’t working anymore after 3 years, afraid to switch to dut?
Finasteride stopped working for a user after 3 years, and they are considering switching to dutasteride. Other users suggest trying dutasteride, with some sharing positive experiences and additional treatments like minoxidil and RU58841.
community Rejected for the 2nd time for the VDPHL01 Clinical Trials (believe it or not!)
The user was rejected from participating in a clinical trial for an extended-release oral Minoxidil due to having rheumatoid arthritis, despite initially being accepted. They had stopped using Dutasteride and Minoxidil to qualify but continued using other treatments like RU58841 and red light therapy.
community (comment) providing facts on people talking nonsense about minoxidil and BP-medicaton in general
Minoxidil is used for hair loss and sometimes for high blood pressure, but it's outdated for the latter. For high blood pressure, it's combined with a beta blocker and diuretic to manage side effects.
community Average r/bald user complaining
Hair loss treatments like Minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841, focusing on their effectiveness and side effects. It also highlights the disparity in medical research funding between hair loss and conditions like endometriosis.
community With studies showing that 0.2mg Finasteride is almost as effective as 5mg at reducing DHT, why is every doctor prescribing 1mg?
Finasteride is prescribed at 1mg because it is FDA-approved and proven effective, despite evidence that 0.2mg may similarly reduce DHT. The 1mg dose is more effective for hair growth, and lower doses are less available.
