Natural remedies to treat hair loss, such as polyphenols, apple peel extract, grape seed extract, green tea extract, peppermint oil, pumpkin seed oil, apigenin, Ginkgo biloba, red clover extract, olive leaf extract, Ecklonia Cava and Grateloupia elliptica. In addition, terpenes, carotenoids, and tocopherols were discussed as potential treatments.

The conversation expresses frustration over the lack of progress in hair loss treatments, with specific mentions of Minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841. Users discuss the slow development of new treatments and the potential of hair transplants.

The user is experiencing hair thinning on the sides and back of the head while the top remains thick. A reply suggests it might be retrograde alopecia.

The conversation discusses hair loss treatments beyond the commonly known three, focusing on separating effective treatments from myths. Dutasteride and low-dose oral Minoxidil are mentioned as having clinical evidence for increasing hair counts, but with potential side effects.

A person improved hair loss from Norwood 3 to Norwood 2 using a topical formula with minoxidil, dutasteride, and tretinoin, plus oral minoxidil and red light therapy. There is skepticism about the treatment's effectiveness and concerns about misleading comparison photos.

Androgenetic alopecia is caused by DHT affecting hair growth. Finasteride and minoxidil are used to manage hair loss by blocking DHT and promoting hair growth.

Finasteride may seem less effective over time due to increased DHT sensitivity or aging, but it still suppresses DHT. Switching to dutasteride offers stronger DHT suppression but may increase estrogen levels.

Oral biotin combined with topical minoxidil may increase hair growth rate, though the study was limited to healthy subjects and did not measure hair density. Some users report personal benefits from biotin, such as faster nail growth and healthier hair, but concerns about acne and study quality were also mentioned.

The user experienced positive hair growth results using microneedling with rosemary and mint oil, without Minoxidil, Finasteride, or RU58841. They switched from a dermaroller to a microneedling pen and targeted different scalp areas weekly.

Key treatments for hair preservation include minoxidil, finasteride/dutasteride, and microneedling, with additional options like specific shampoos, oils, biotin, zinc, tretinoin, clascoterone, and low-level laser therapy. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle, reducing stress, and addressing nutrient deficiencies can also support hair health.

The user is trying to maximize minoxidil's effectiveness by applying it for only one hour to avoid spreading it to furniture and pets, especially cats. They experience side effects when combining minoxidil with dermarolling and are considering alternatives like oral minoxidil or microneedling.

Effective treatments for male pattern baldness include finasteride, dutasteride, and oral minoxidil. Non-effective approaches include oils, shampoos, serums, laser therapies, massages, vitamins, and microneedling.

A user shared their positive experience using Fleava (copper peptides), minoxidil, and micro needling for hair regrowth, noting significant improvement in their hairline. Other users believe the success is primarily due to micro needling and minoxidil.

A doctor advised against using finasteride or dutasteride during pregnancy. The user continues with oral and topical minoxidil, microneedling, tretinoin, Nizoral, and pyrilutamide.

A user shared their 2-month hair regrowth progress using 1mg finasteride daily, 5% minoxidil once daily, 1% nizoral shampoo twice a week, and weekly derma stamping. They reported significant improvement and no major side effects, with plans to consider dutasteride if needed.

A 36-year-old user shared their 12-month hair recovery journey using oral Propecia, topical minoxidil, a derma roller, ketoconazole shampoo, biotin, and omega-3. They reported seeing results by the second month, with some setbacks but overall progress.

FCE 28260 (PNU 156765), an under-explored 5α-reductase inhibitor, showcases promising results in research by Giudici et al., outperforming well-known treatments like Finasteride in reducing the conversion of testosterone to DHT. Its superior efficacy, demonstrated through lower IC50 values in both natural and human recombinant enzyme studies, suggests it could offer more effective management of DHT-related conditions. Additionally, its lower molecular weight hints at better potential for topical application, potentially offering advantages in treating conditions such as androgenic alopecia. Despite its potential, it has not advanced in development, possibly due to financial limitations, leaving its therapeutic prospects and side effect profile largely unexplored.

Dutasteride takes 1-3 months to affect scalp DHT levels, not just a week. The prostate absorbs Dutasteride faster than the scalp due to different vascular networks and enzyme densities.

A 22.5-year-old male is frustrated with doctors for not taking his diffuse thinning seriously. He has been using finasteride for 2.5 years, avoids topical minoxidil due to dandruff, and is hesitant about oral minoxidil due to weight and injury concerns.

A dental technician claims malocclusion causes pattern hair loss due to poor scalp circulation. Users debate this, noting treatments like finasteride, minoxidil, and microneedling focus on DHT and blood flow.

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.

Microneedling combined with minoxidil and finasteride shows significant hair regrowth, though opinions on its effectiveness vary. Some users report substantial benefits, while others highlight the need for more research and consistency in application.

A 17-year-old user reports significant hair regrowth using 1mg finasteride daily and 5% minoxidil once daily. Other users discuss the effectiveness and age considerations of finasteride.
