Annual hair shedding occurs for user, lasting 3 months, despite various factors. User takes Finasteride, Minoxidil, and Dutasteride, and experiences regrowth but fears weakening hairline.
Topical Finasteride doesn't directly reduce 5ar enzyme on scalp and has the same mechanism as oral, needing to go through the liver. Users debate the accuracy of this information and discuss various studies and experiences.
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.
User takes topical finasteride/minoxidil with little results, asks if microneedling helps for temple regions and if 0.5mm is enough. Replies suggest microneedling is effective and 0.5mm works, sharing personal regimens.
The user experienced excessive bleeding during microneedling after consuming caffeine and THC, and is unsure if they should continue with the same routine. They are seeking advice on whether the bleeding is a cause for concern.
User discusses Pyrilutamide's effectiveness for hair loss, needing more time for results. Others suggest waiting 6-12 months and ask about side effects.
