The user has been dealing with an oily scalp, seborrheic dermatitis, and hairloss for 18 months, using finasteride without improvement. Another user suggested dutasteride for reducing scalp oiliness.
Dutasteride potentially being more effective than Finasteride in treating hairloss due to its ability to suppress DHT levels more significantly. Dutasteride also has fewer sexual side effects compared to Finasteride.
Hairloss discussion mentions using estrogen mixed with growth stimulants like oral minoxidil for scalphair growth. Idea proposed for an artificial SARM-estrogen that only affects hair without body side effects.
The post discusses potential links between low vitamin D levels and hairloss, and how correcting this might impact the effectiveness of Minoxidil and Finasteride treatments. The responses vary, with some suggesting that vitamin D deficiency would cause overall scalphairloss, while others believe it would first affect the most sensitive areas.
Nearly 40% of adults with alopecia areata achieved at least 80% scalphair coverage after 52 weeks of taking OLUMIANT® 4-mg. The conversation distinguishes this success from androgenetic alopecia, which is a different type of hairloss.
Scalp tension potentially affecting hairloss, and potential treatments for male pattern baldness such as Minoxidil, Finasteride and RU58841. Evidence from a study was discussed which suggests that the cause of MPB lies within the follicle itself and is not dependent on its surrounding environment.
Scalp biopsies are crucial for diagnosing hairloss conditions like Diffuse Unpatterned Alopecia (DUPA) and retrograde hairloss, as treatments like finasteride and dutasteride may not be effective if other conditions are present. Combining PPAR-GAMMA agonists with retinoids could improve treatments for conditions like Lichen Planopilaris.
User discusses tight scalp causing hairloss and suggests treatments like scalp massages, PRP, saw palmetto, and eucapil. They share their experience with saw palmetto and eucapil and consider adding PRP and scalp massages for better results.
How Finasteride and Dutasteride help reduce hairloss by reducing the amount of DHT in scalp areas, as well as discussing factors such as sensitivity to DHT, 5α-reductase expression in different parts of the hair follicle, and scalp tension.
The user is considering Botox for scalphairloss and currently uses finasteride, minoxidil, microneedling, pumpkin seed oil, saw palmetto, and green tea extract. They seek information on potential risks and effectiveness.
The conversation discusses the scalp tension theory as a potential factor in hairloss, alongside DHT, inflammation, and other mechanisms. Treatments mentioned include finasteride, minoxidil, and botox injections, with some users exploring additional methods due to varying effectiveness.
Male pattern baldness (MPB) may be influenced by androgen receptors in scalphair follicles and potentially poor blood flow. Transplanted hair is not immune to DHT, and factors like inflammation and scalp tension might also contribute to hairloss.
The conversation discusses the perception of increased hairloss among young men, with some attributing it to heightened awareness or environmental factors. Various treatments are mentioned, including Minoxidil, Finasteride, microneedling, scalp massages, and future hair transplant methods.
The conversation discusses the possibility of transplanting leg and arm hair to the scalp for hairloss treatment. Minoxidil is mentioned as a potential aid for hair growth, but concerns about the effectiveness and appearance of body hair on the head are raised.
Hair regrowth from treatments like minoxidil, RU58841, and finasteride is not permanent; stopping these treatments typically results in hairloss resuming. Beard hair can become permanent with minoxidil use, unlike scalphair, which requires ongoing treatment to maintain gains.
Treating Seborrheic Dermatitis, a fungal scalp condition which can cause hairloss. Treatments discussed include antifungal shampoos, cold showers, exfoliating the scalp, taking Vitamin D, and stimulating the prostate through the anus.
Addressing hairloss by focusing on posture, blood flow, and craniofacial development. Methods include improving posture, cardiovascular activity, scalp massages, healthy diet, meditation, using minoxidil, and addressing craniofacial issues.
GT20029, a new hairloss treatment, shows promising results but only a slight improvement over placebo. People are cautiously optimistic, discussing its potential and combining it with existing treatments like Minoxidil and Finasteride.
Finasteride worked better for frontal scalphairloss, while dutasteride helped the crown and mid-scalp but worsened the frontal area. The user shared personal experiences and invited open dialogue.
Using hairloss treatments such as Minoxidil and Finasteride to combat male pattern baldness, with the poster expressing hope in regaining confidence and security. Replies offer advice, anecdotes, and support for the user's efforts.
A user's transformation from an accountant to a spartan with a full beard, discussing the potential of DUPA and alopecia areata, as well as treatments like vitamins, topicals, and natural treatments for potential regrowth.
Minoxidil helps hair growth on both scalp and face, but stopping it leads to hairloss on the scalp, not the face. The user questions why scalphair can't be maintained with finasteride or androgen blockers after stopping minoxidil, despite these treatments reducing DHT damage.
A user has been treating hairloss with finasteride for two years without success and is experiencing an itchy scalp with seborrhea. Despite low DHT levels, they are still losing hair, suggesting that DHT might not be the main cause of their hairloss, and they are considering other treatments or causes.
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.
The user changed their hairloss treatment to 5mg oral Minoxidil and 2.5mg Dutasteride daily, resulting in significant hair regrowth over two months. They also used Nizoral 2% Ketoconazole shampoo to improve scalp health.
Hairloss treatments, ranging from topical minoxidil and finasteride to taking hormones such as estradiol or nandrolone, as well as a controversial suggestion of an orchiectomy. A hair system is also mentioned as an alternative solution.
The conversation discusses GT20029 as a potential hairloss treatment that could act like a cure by targeting androgen receptors in scalphair follicles. Specific treatments mentioned include GT20029, with a user expressing hope that it could make male pattern baldness obsolete.
