A 24-year-old male using topical finasteride for hairloss is experiencing thinning despite treatment and has high estrogen levels. He is seeking advice on whether high estrogen could be causing hairloss and how others with high estrogen levels have addressed it.
The conversation is about the role of testosterone in hairloss and the effectiveness of different treatments. The conclusion is that DHT is the main culprit for hairloss, and finasteride has been proven to work long-term in maintaining and regrowing hair. Testosterone may have a minor effect, but it is not the primary cause of hairloss.
Researching and developing an effective local antagonist to block the androgen receptors for hairloss, as opposed to using DHT synthesis inhibitors that lower serum DHT levels. Several treatments such as CosmeRNA and Pyrilutamide are currently in development or undergoing trials.
A user's 20 year journey with hairloss and the treatments they have used to manage it, including finasteride, minoxidil, a custom Strut Blend of Dutasteride, Minoxidil, Tretinoin, and Biotin, Nizoral shampoo, multivitamins, Vitamin D, B Complex, Dim, Clomid, exercise, diet, laser helmet, Toppik dark brown, and topical Finasteride. The user also talks about their successful life, lack of desire for children and high sperm count due to Clomid.
The conversation discusses a last-resort hairloss treatment combining topical finasteride, minoxidil, melatonin, and progesterone, with claims that topical finasteride can inhibit up to 52% of scalp DHT. One reply clarifies that progesterone is not an anti-androgen but has anti-androgenic properties because it competes with androgens for receptors.
Factors that can cause hairloss other than DHT, such as inflammation and diet, and potential treatments like scalp massages, minoxidil, citrulline, stretches, meditation, iron sulfate/Vitamin C, Vitamin D, protein and Dutasteride.
Natural remedies to treat hairloss, 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 discusses potential future hairloss treatments, including SCUBE3, hair follicle cloning, and GT20029, with mentions of past disappointments like CosmeRNA and hopes for treatments like Verteporfin for infinite donor hair.
The conversation discusses dissatisfaction with current hairloss treatments that mainly focus on DHT blockers like finasteride and dutasteride. Alternative treatments mentioned include RU58841, pyrilutamide, minoxidil, rosemary oil, and future possibilities like hair cloning.
Someone who is starting to experience hairloss and is considering multiple treatments, such as minoxidil, finasteride, dutasteride, and a hair transplant, to manage it. Replies provide advice on how to approach these treatments safely and effectively.
CosmeRNA, a new hairloss 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.
The conversation discusses the potential of a new hairloss treatment, GT20029, which may prevent hairloss by destroying androgen receptors on the scalp. Users express hope for the treatment's success and speculate on its usage routine, effectiveness, and possible side effects.
The conversation discusses the potential of a new hairloss treatment, GT20029, which targets androgen receptors in the scalp and is in phase 1 trials in China. Users express hope that this treatment will be more effective than current options like Minoxidil and Finasteride.
Dutasteride may inhibit androgen receptors in addition to reducing DHT, potentially explaining its effectiveness over finasteride for hairloss. Concerns about its impact on muscle growth are debated, with some suggesting no significant effects.
Minoxidil alone is often insufficient for treating hairloss because it doesn't address the DHT-related cause. Combining it with finasteride, a DHT blocker, is generally more effective.
Dutasteride is unlikely to worsen hairloss; shedding is often temporary. Other factors like inconsistent use, placebo effect, or additional treatments may influence perceived results.
The conversation discusses the confusion over low testosterone potentially causing hairloss, with users sharing personal experiences and knowledge about hairloss treatments like Finasteride. Some users suggest that hair follicle sensitivity to DHT, not testosterone levels, is the key factor in balding, and others discuss the side effects of hairloss medications.
A compounding pharmacist offers affordable topical finasteride foam with Anagain and micro-dose finasteride capsules for hairloss. They provide telehealth services across Canada and private appointments for international patients.
The conversation is about finding the optimal concentration of topical melatonin for hairloss treatment. The user is considering making their own solution and is unsure whether a higher concentration is more effective for deactivating prolactin receptors.
A user's decision to shave their head after struggling with hairloss for seven years, and the medications and treatments they are using to attempt regrowth. They also discuss potential future treatments that may come out in the near future.
Diet can influence hair health, but male pattern baldness (MPB) is primarily genetic. Treatments discussed include Minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841.
The user emphasizes hydration, androgen receptors, and a 7-day ejaculation recovery period for appearance enhancement. They suggest Minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841 for hairloss, along with a diet rich in animal fats, specific exercises, and fasting.
Pyrilutimide and CB-03-01, two treatments for hairloss, have similar clinical trial results despite different binding affinities to androgen receptors. Factors other than binding affinity, like the time a drug stays bound to the receptor, may influence their effectiveness.
A user's decision to shave their head after experiencing hairloss since the age of 17, and discussion around the potential use of Fin for treating hairloss.
The conversation is about a user considering the use of Ketoconazole 2% shampoo before showing signs of male pattern baldness (MPB) to potentially delay its onset, inspired by a YouTuber who uses the shampoo to reduce scalp DHT levels. The user's interest in this preventative measure stems from a family history of MPB.
The conversation discusses positive initial trial results for GT20029, a topical compound for hairloss that degrades androgen receptors, potentially requiring only weekly application. Participants express hope for this treatment to be more effective and convenient than current options like Minoxidil, Finasteride, and RU58841.
