Hair loss and potential treatments, primarily focusing on Finasteride and Minoxidil. Other solutions discussed include PRP, dermarolling, LLP, and scalp tension relief.
A user who has been using finasteride and minoxidil, as well as a keto shampoo for two and a half months, and believes they are seeing slight improvements in their hair loss.
A user experienced significant hair regrowth after 5 weeks by taking zinc, vitamin D, and biotin supplements, correcting deficiencies that were contributing to hair loss and thinning. They report a decrease in hair shedding, faster hair growth, and a thickening of their hairline without using common hair loss medications like Minoxidil or Finasteride.
The conversation is about finding a suitable conditioner to use with Nizoral, a ketoconazole shampoo. One person is trying a caffeinated/coconut conditioner to strengthen hair but hasn't seen results yet.
A potential new hair loss treatment, HMI-115, and the possibility of discontinuing finasteride in favor of it. The conversation also includes discussion about other benefits of using finasteride.
Minoxidil increases hair count despite high prolactin being linked to hair loss. Blocking DHT is effective, but not always necessary; HMI-115 is a promising treatment for androgenetic alopecia.
Pyrilutamide is considered to work for hair loss but less effectively than expected, similar to RU58841, and may cause side effects like chest tightness and sexual issues. It's unclear if it's suitable for diffuse thinners, and one user cannot use minoxidil or finasteride due to side effects and personal circumstances.
A user accidentally discovered that applying vitamin E oil to their scalp significantly reduced their hair shedding for about 1.5 weeks. They reported improved hair quality and a drastic decrease in hair loss after treatment.
The conversation is about the potential effectiveness of a hair loss treatment called pyrilutamide. One person has been using it since September and reports positive results.
