Hair loss treatments, specifically the use of oral minoxidil in combination with micro-needling. Oral minoxidil has been found to improve hair density in 90% of patients with a low side effect profile, but using 5mg per day can result in higher side effects including hypertrichosis and edema. Other treatments mentioned include finasteride and RU58841.
The conversation discusses the potential of long-chain unsaturated fatty acids, like oleic and linoleic acid, as an additional treatment for hair loss, which may inhibitthe enzyme responsible for converting testosterone to DHT and promote hair growth. Users humorously suggest using oils topically and discuss other hair loss treatments, butthe main focus is on the science behind fatty acids and their role in hair health.
Dr. Kang-Yell Choi's company, CK Regeon, is developing a drug called KY19382 for hair regeneration, which involves creating fine wounds to activate stem cells. The drug is in the formulation development stage, targeting markets like the US and Korea.

The conversation is aboutthe side effects of finasteride, including Post Finasteride Syndrome, with varied personal experiences and differing views on the credibility of information sources. Some participants also discuss using minoxidil as a hair loss treatment.
Scientists discovered a new Tcelltreatmentthat could regrow hair. Users are skeptical but hopeful, with some relying on finasteride and minoxidil in the meantime.
Rosemary extract showed high inhibitory activity against DHT, similar to finasteride and dutasteride, butthe conversation includes skepticism about its effectiveness in humans since the study was done on mice and rosemary oil is often considered ineffective based on personal experiences. Some suggesttrying rosemary oil alongside other treatments, while others emphasize the difference between the extract used in the study and the oil.
Balding seems to worsen with each generation, possibly due to stress, diet, and environmental factors. The user started treatments like Minoxidil and finasteride.
Microneedling stimulates hair growth through stem cell activation during wound healing, not just increased blood flow. Other methods like showers or supplements don't replicate this effect.
A Swiss product called Redensyl, which is supposed to target hair follicle stem cells and has recently been marketed in Europe. The post inquires if anyone has had any experience with the product.
User asks if spironolactone can stack with finasteride and pyrilutamide for hair loss treatment. They question why spironolactone is associated with feminizing effects, while RU/pyri/fluridil, which work similarly, are not.
User considers trying AAPE for hair restoration, costing $700 for 6 months. Others discuss its potential effectiveness and mention a study with promising results.
A user's father experienced hair regrowth and other health improvements after two IV exosome treatments. The user also had four rounds of exosome therapy, noting significant hair regrowth and relief from headaches, but no change in gray hair.
Hair cloning is discussed as a potential future solution for hair loss, but it's not expected to be available soon due to high costs and technical challenges. Currenttreatments like Minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841 are not mentioned in this conversation.
The conversation discusses the potential for Verteporfin to reduce scarring, making hairline lowering surgeries more viable for men with mild hair loss. The user suggests that if scarring can be minimized, men might opt for hairline lowering instead of using grafts for other areas.
The conversation advises against waiting for future hair loss treatments and suggests using proven treatments like Finasteride and Minoxidil. Some users regret not starting treatment earlier, while others discuss the effectiveness and safety of currenttreatments and the potential of microneedling.
