A user mixed a pyrilutamide solution and noticed undissolved powder at the bottom, questioning if this is normal and how long to wait before applying it. They wished others good luck with their treatments.
GT20029 and pyrilutamide are both androgen antagonists but work differently; GT20029 degrades the androgen receptor, while pyrilutamide blocks DHT from binding. GT20029 is expected to have similar efficacy to CosmeRNA.
GT20029 shows promising results for hair loss treatment, with potential approval in China by 2026 or 2027, but U.S. approval may take longer. It could serve as an alternative to finasteride, with a potentially better side effect profile.

The user received hormone test results showing normal estradiol and testosterone levels, low SHBG, and normal free androgen index. They are considering starting finasteride but are concerned due to being slightly overweight.
TDM-105795 is a potential hair growth stimulant that works differently from minoxidil and could be used alongside it for enhanced growth. It completed phase 2 trials in 2024, with a medium to high chance of release in 2026, but lacks recent updates or phase 3 trial information.
The conversation discusses using TH16, a topical melatonin with resveratrol, and stemoxydine for hair maintenance, avoiding finasteride and minoxidil due to side effects. The user is considering a low-dose topical finasteride despite sensitivity.
Switching from propylene glycol to glycerin in topical finasteride may reduce systemic absorption and side effects while maintaining local scalp DHT suppression. Concerns exist about glycerin's ability to deliver the full dose to hair follicles.
A new treatment using dermal sheath cup cells may regrow hair and could require repeat treatments every 8 years. Users discuss ongoing trials and plan to use finasteride and minoxidil until the treatment is available.
The conversation discusses topical androgen receptor blockers for hair loss, mentioning Clascoterone, Pyrilutamide, GT20029, and RU58841. Ketoconazole's effectiveness and application methods are also debated.
The conversation discusses the use of autologous exosomes for hair loss, questioning their effectiveness and seeking real user experiences. The user is skeptical about the treatment's legitimacy and is looking for honest feedback on its results.
Tazarotene may outperform tretinoin for hairline treatment with minoxidil, but lacks evidence. Tretinoin is recommended for the scalp, while tazarotene can be used on the face.
A user shared their experience using 2-deoxy-D-ribose (2dDR) for hair regrowth, noting early positive results without side effects, alongside their long-term use of minoxidil and finasteride. They mentioned 2dDR's potential effectiveness in boosting blood flow to hair follicles and its availability online.
Adipose-derived stem cell secretome showed significant improvement in hair density and growth, especially when combined with minoxidil, suggesting a synergistic effect. The study had limitations, including a small sample size and potential bias.
The conversation is about the potential cost of GT20029 if FDA approved, with estimates around $150/month. Comparisons are made between GT20029, finasteride, and their mechanisms and side effects.
The user experienced high estradiol levels and side effects after stopping finasteride and is concerned about whether these hormonal imbalances are temporary. They are seeking advice on reversing the condition without starting new treatments due to hypersensitivity to finasteride.
Verteporfin is being discussed for its potential to regrow hair and heal scars, possibly aiding hair transplants or replacing them. Some users are skeptical about its effectiveness, while others suggest combining it with microneedling for better results.
Athletes often use finasteride to maintain hair transplants, but some avoid it due to potential hormonal effects. Notable examples include Mo Salah and Conor McGregor, while LeBron James has had multiple procedures with varying success.
