Pyrilutamide is discussed as a potential hair loss treatment, acting as an androgen receptor antagonist. The conversation questions if it can maintain hair long-term without using finasteride.
The conversation discusses reliable brands for RU58841, with recommendations for RUdirect and Receptorchem. Users also mention Anageninc as a known option for RU58841 in Europe and the UK.
Triple Hair Inc. developed a new topical treatment, TH07, combining Finasteride, Latanoprost, and Minoxidil for androgenic alopecia. Users discussed its effectiveness compared to other treatments and shared their own product combinations.
Kintor is potentially pursuing a new hair loss treatment, KT-215, while users express skepticism about the speed and reliability of new product releases. There is a general sentiment that Chinese companies might be more promising in delivering timely solutions.
The post and conversation are about the high cost and skepticism surrounding pyrilutamide as a hair loss treatment, with comparisons to minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841. The original poster defends pyrilutamide's effectiveness and criticizes others for dismissing it without proper understanding.
RU58841 shows the strongest results despite weaker binding affinity, while KX-826 and CB-03-01 are more expensive and have minimal side effects. RU58841 is considered effective but has potential health risks if ingested; users report positive outcomes with RU58841 and finasteride.
The user is using a hair loss regimen involving 2ddr applied twice daily, tretinoin weekly, and occasionally micro-needling. They report feeling increased scalp thickness and seeing some hair growth progress.
The user experienced hair thinning and was diagnosed with alopecia incognito and male pattern baldness. They are using minoxidil, finasteride, and dutasteride scalp injections, reporting gradual improvement with no side effects.
Alfatradiol is used as a mild treatment to slow or stabilize hair loss, often alongside finasteride and pumpkin seed oil. Users report reduced shedding and minimal side effects, but minoxidil is noted as more effective for regrowth.
The conversation is about choosing an additional topical treatment for hair loss, with options being fluridil, topical spiro, or alfatradiol, alongside existing treatments like dutasteride, oral minoxidil, latanoprost, and RU58841. Opinions vary on the effectiveness of adding these topicals, with some suggesting RU58841 is sufficient.
ET-02, a PAI-1 inhibitor, is not proven to be more effective than Minoxidil for hair loss. Other treatments like finasteride, dutasteride, PP405, and AMP-303 are also discussed, focusing on cellular senescence and oxidative stress.
Tretinoin can enhance the effects of topical minoxidil for hair loss, with Altreno recommended for its less irritating formula. Users suggest applying tretinoin first, waiting 20 minutes, then applying minoxidil or finasteride.
The user has been taking dutasteride for 7 months with unimpressive results and recently started using minoxidil once a day. They are inquiring about the effectiveness of using minoxidil twice a day and the addition of tretinoin to enhance results.
A 22-year-old underwent a hair transplant in Bangkok, using 2,500 grafts, and has been using dutasteride and minoxidil to stabilize hair loss. The user chose the procedure to enjoy youthful confidence, despite some opinions that it's too early for a transplant.
Amplifica is developing new molecules for hair growth, with clinical trials expected soon, while Engraft Technologies is improving FUE robotic technology to make hair transplants faster and cheaper. Users express interest in the timeline for AMP-303 and concerns about high costs and effectiveness of current treatments.
Using 1.5mg dutasteride, 2.5mg oral minoxidil, and topical RU58841 may help manage hair loss while on testosterone, but regrowth is uncertain. Users report varying success with different dosages and combinations of these treatments.
Using tretinoin or tazarotene with minoxidil may eliminate the need for microneedling or dermastamping. Microneedling can enhance minoxidil's effects but may cause long-term scalp issues.
Tazarotene shows potential as a standalone treatment for hair regrowth by stimulating new hair follicle formation and promoting angiogenesis, similar to microneedling effects. It can be used topically without minoxidil, but users should start with a low concentration to avoid irritation.
Kintor apologized for using misleading images in their advertisements and promised stricter review processes. They are also considering developing a topical dutasteride formulation.
Amplifica's AMP-303 showed a modest increase in hair growth, but results were inconsistent and potentially misleading. Hyaluronic acid and osteopontin are being explored for hair growth, with varying effects on different hair types and conditions.
KX-826 and RU58841 are topical anti-androgens discussed for hair loss prevention, with KX-826 showing promise in trials and RU58841 having mixed anecdotal results. Users report combining these with treatments like minoxidil, finasteride, and dutasteride, with varying success and concerns about side effects.
ET-02 showed significant hair growth in five weeks, outperforming minoxidil, with a non-hormonal mechanism that avoids side effects of treatments like finasteride. A phase 2 trial is planned to further assess ET-02's efficacy and safety.
GT20029 and PP405 are discussed as potential alternatives or complements to finasteride for hair loss treatment. GT20029 is entering phase 3 trials, while PP405 is seen as promising for regrowing hair and possibly eliminating the need for other treatments.
The user increased their steroid dosage and noticed hair shedding, so they adjusted their regimen by reducing steroid doses and adding oral dutasteride. They are also experimenting with combining RU-58841 and KX-826/pyrilutamide in minoxidil to address hair loss.
A user is interested in Absci's AI-driven antibody platform, ABS-201, for treating androgenetic alopecia, which shows promising preclinical results and potential for hair regrowth and pigmentation restoration. However, concerns are raised about the drug's development timeline and its advantages compared to existing treatments.
The conversation is about the anticipated release date of phase II results for a hair loss treatment called GT20029 and the cautious optimism surrounding it due to past disappointments with similar treatments. Users expect an update in the next few months.
The user is experiencing diffuse androgenic alopecia and is trying various treatments, including 5mg finasteride, loniten, and Formula 82D, which contains dutasteride, a steroid, and tretinoin. They report potential regrowth with Formula 82D, despite previous treatments being ineffective.
Isotretinoin may cause hair loss by increasing DHT through a precursor androgen, DHEAS. Treatments like topical antiandrogens (RU58841, pyrilutamide) and drugs increasing PPAR-y expression (pioglitazone) might prevent this hair loss.
The user experienced temple recession, shedding, and acne while on 0.5mg dutasteride, 1.25mg finasteride every other day, and 5mg oral minoxidil daily. They are considering switching treatments due to worsening symptoms and are contemplating using a topical anti-androgen like RU58841.
Akkermansia bacteria can improve hair growth inhibited by testosterone, and metformin may increase Akkermansia, which could help with hair loss related to aging, insulin resistance, and inflammation.
