5 / 83 resultscommunity Mucuna pruriens, dopamine and prolactin. Natural route with oils.
The post discusses using Mucuna pruriens, essential oils, and dermarolling for hair loss treatment. The user also mentions pausing testosterone-boosting herbs due to side effects like acne and hair loss.
community Any adderall / vyvanse users here?
Adderall and Vyvanse may contribute to hair loss by stressing the dopamine system and increasing cortisol levels. Users discuss potential treatments like Minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841 for managing hair loss.
community Dutasteride is possibly BETTER for the brain than Finasteride
Dutasteride may be better for the brain than Finasteride, potentially increasing dopamine levels and causing fewer side effects. For those switching from Finasteride to Dutasteride to prevent hair loss, it's recommended to continue Finasteride for 3-4 months while starting Dutasteride to avoid shedding due to Dutasteride's long half-life.
community I've been afflicted by post finasteride syndrome, what now?
A user experienced severe side effects from finasteride, including mental health issues and physical symptoms, and sought advice on managing post-finasteride syndrome. Suggestions included checking vitamin levels, considering dopamine agonists, and avoiding further psychiatric medications.
community Has anyone with high prolactin taken meds to lower it and seen hair regrowth?
High prolactin levels may contribute to hair loss, and some users suggest supplements like mucuna pruriens, vitamin B6, vitamin E, L-Tyrosine, L-Theanine, DIM, and Zinc to lower prolactin. Lifestyle changes to increase dopamine, such as reducing screen time and stress, are also recommended.
