Dutasteride can drastically reduce sebum production, leading to dryer hair and shedding. Alternating shampoos and periodic silica supplementation can improve hair quality and thickness.

A user shared a success story showing hair regrowth over 10 years, attributing it to quitting creatine and taking 0.5mg finasteride. Some commenters were skeptical about creatine's impact, while others inquired about side effects, and the original poster reported no negative effects from finasteride.

A user shared their experience with oral minoxidil and finasteride for hair loss, taking 7.5mg of minoxidil and experiencing excessive hair growth all over their body without major side effects. Some users suggested lower doses for safety, while others shared their own experiences with hair growth in different areas and side effects.

User discusses hair loss and treatments like Minoxidil and Finasteride. Conversation includes jokes and comments about hairlines and hair growth.

This conversation is about a user who has been using Minoxidil for nine months and just noticed hair growing on the inner part of their arms. Responses to this post suggest that they should continue using it, with an increase in frequency from 5% twice a day, as well as trying finasteride if needed.

CosmeRNA, a new hair loss treatment, is expected to release soon and may become part of the "big three" treatments alongside finasteride and minoxidil. It works differently from finasteride by targeting androgen receptors in hair follicles, potentially offering fewer side effects.

Treatments for hair loss, including microneedling, finasteride, minoxidil, dutasteride, RU-58841, pyrilutamide, pumpkin seed oil, rosemary water, orchiectomy, and estrogen.

At this point. In this conversation, users discussed the risks of drinking topical minoxidil and suggested alternative treatments such as obtaining a prescription for oral minoxidil or finasteride.

Many people experience hair loss but don't treat it. Common treatments include Minoxidil, Finasteride, and microneedling.

A user discusses a company, Roots by Genetic Arts, that offers a genetic test for hair loss to create personalized treatments, and is curious about its legitimacy and the science behind it. The company tests 16 genes related to hair loss and compounds a topical treatment based on the results.

User ronopibf discusses Fagron TrichoTest, a genetic test for hair loss, and seeks opinions on its effectiveness. Some users support the service, while others call it a scam, with prices ranging from $200-$500.

A 28-year-old woman with genetic hair loss has tried various treatments, including oral minoxidil, finasteride, dutasteride, vitamins, ketoconazole shampoo, exosome needling, and hair extensions. She plans to pause treatments for pregnancy and is concerned about potential hair loss during that time.

A user shared their positive experience with Roots by GA, a company that creates personalized hair loss treatments based on DNA analysis, which confirmed their inability to tolerate finasteride. The user is satisfied with their progress 30 days after a hair transplant and the customized formula they received.

A 34-year-old woman is experiencing diffuse hair loss and irregular periods, possibly due to long-term spironolactone use. She is considering minoxidil and finasteride for treatment and seeking medical advice for androgenic alopecia and hormonal imbalances.

The conversation discusses using finasteride or dutasteride to reduce DHT, CosmeRNA to target androgen receptors, and Minoxidil as a vasodilator for hair growth. The regimen aims to maintain hair by addressing DHT-AR ratio and continuous Minoxidil use.

CRISPR shows promise for treating hair loss by targeting specific genes. Current treatments include Minoxidil and finasteride, but CRISPR could offer a more precise solution, though it is still expensive and in early stages.

Genetic factors, enzyme activity, and DHT sensitivity affect individual responses to hair loss treatments like finasteride, minoxidil, and dutasteride. Starting treatments early can slow hair loss, but results vary among individuals.

A user is experiencing genetic hair loss and is using spironolactone and minoxidil without success. They are considering switching to vegan protein powder due to digestive issues and are concerned if it will worsen hair loss.

The conversation discusses that genetic analysis of the Iceman Ötzi shows he had male-pattern baldness and dark skin, with a joke about using beards and tattoos to distract from hair loss. No specific hair loss treatments are mentioned.

Hair loss varies due to genetic sensitivity to DHT and other factors. Treatments discussed include finasteride, minoxidil, RU58841, and microneedling.

A 29-year-old woman with genetic hair loss started using 0.5 dutasteride a week ago and has noticed increased shedding, no sexual side effects, and less oily skin. She plans to provide updates and is not concerned about potential birth defects as she doesn't plan to have more children.

A 22-year-old woman is experiencing genetic hair loss and has tried natural remedies like coconut oil and aloe vera without success. She seeks advice on whether to see a dermatologist or use treatments like Minoxidil (Rogaine) despite her parents' skepticism about professional help and chemical treatments.

The user discusses using Minoxidil and plans to start Finasteride for genetic hair loss. They also mention natural remedies like gold shilajit, moringa powder, a seed mixture, and cardio exercise, emphasizing that while these can help, Minoxidil and Finasteride are necessary.

The conversation discusses how Caucasian men are more likely to experience hair loss due to genetic predisposition, with factors like the androgen receptor on the X chromosome playing a significant role. The user also expresses confusion about the evolutionary reasons for hair loss, especially in colder climates where it would seem beneficial to retain hair for warmth.

The user is unsure if their hair thinning is due to fungal infection/inflammation or genetic factors and is hesitant to start Minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841. They are currently using Ketoconazole 2% and triamcinolone acetonide and are concerned about potential side effects from other medications.

Caffeine intake may increase DHT levels, but its impact on hair loss is minimal compared to genetic factors. Excessive caffeine can cause health issues, and its effects on hair loss are not directly applicable to humans based on rat studies.

The conversation discusses various theories of hair loss, including DHT sensitivity and genetic factors, with the user willing to use themselves for research due to having a hair loss gene but different hair loss patterns compared to their brothers. Specific treatments were not mentioned in the provided text.

Dutasteride might be better for hairline due to varying levels of 5AR activity in scalps. Genetic tests can determine if finasteride is enough or if dutasteride is needed.

A user with diffuse hair loss after taking accutane, which might have triggered genetic predisposition to AGA; their experience taking finasteride and experiencing side effects of increased oil production, increased sex drive, worsening hair texture; they are considering zinc supplementation with finasteride or other treatments such as alfatradiol or spironolactone.

Diet can influence hair health, but male pattern baldness (MPB) is primarily genetic. Treatments discussed include Minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841.
