Hair loss, DHT and bloodflow with Andrew Huberman; the discussion includes opinions about supplements, finasteride, minoxidil, turmeric, coffee and botox injections for hair loss.

The efficacy of taking 1mg finasteride three times a week instead of daily for hair loss, with some users arguing that it is just as effective because finasteride has a long half-life in the scalp tissue and lower doses have been shown to be effective. Other users suggest experimenting with various treatments such as minoxidil and finasteride to achieve best results.

NMN shows promise in promoting hair growth by reducing oxidative stress and weakening androgens. It may be a beneficial addition to hair loss treatments like Minoxidil and Finasteride.

Microneedling is effective for hair growth, especially when combined with finasteride and minoxidil, but concerns exist about potential long-term skin damage. Users report increased collagen and elastin deposition, but the long-term effects on the scalp remain uncertain.

A user shared their hair regrowth success using microneedling with a dermaroller every 6 days and minoxidil, recommending betadine (povidone-iodine) before microneedling to sterilize the scalp and enhance results. Another user noted the potential risks of iodine toxicity.

The user experienced worsening hair loss despite using finasteride, minoxidil, and microneedling. Suggestions included reducing microneedling frequency, switching to oral minoxidil, adding tretinoin, and considering dutasteride.

The conversation is about recommending safe and effective dermaroller or dermastamp brands for hair loss treatment. Users discuss avoiding cheap options to prevent scalp damage and share usage frequency.

A user shared their 6-month hair loss progress using minoxidil 5% twice daily and finasteride, noting significant improvement. They experienced an itchy scalp initially but resolved it by washing their hair daily and using oils and conditioner as needed.

A user shared an 8-month hair loss treatment progress using daily saw palmetto and biotin capsules, weekly dermarolling, and a scalp lotion mix of castor, jojoba, and rosemary oils, avoiding finasteride and minoxidil due to side effects and cost. The user reported encouraging progress with slight hairline improvement and better crown area, attributing most success to dermarolling.

User reports five months progress on finasteride and oral minoxidil, with thicker hair and no visible scalp. Started at 2.50mg and increased to 10mg without side effects.
