community New baldness drug boosts hair coverage by up to 86% in six months

719 upvotes 3 months ago

A new extended-release oral minoxidil formulation claims to improve hair growth by maintaining steady blood levels, reducing side effects like hypotension, and potentially benefiting female hair loss. However, it is not considered groundbreaking as it builds on existing minoxidil treatments, and its effectiveness compared to current doses is debated.

community Intermittent Finasteride dosing for reduction of side effects?

6 upvotes 7 years ago

Intermittent finasteride dosing, like taking it every third day, may reduce side effects while still lowering DHT levels. Users report side effects such as brain fog and weaker erections, which often subside after stopping the drug.

Anti-seizure and mood-stabilising drug

learn Finasteride

Topical or oral? Choosing between pills and lotions according to your case. In studies, topical finasteride gave much lower blood levels of the drug than tablets but still lowered blood DHT, and whether it causes fewer side effects has not been established. There is no FDA-approved topical finasteride, and the FDA warned about compounded versions in April 2025.
Are there really risks with topical finasteride? Reports on topical finasteride describe scalp irritation and dermatitis as the effects specific to it, and blood levels lower than the oral drug; whether the oral drug's systemic side effects (sexual, mood, suicidal-thought, cognitive and breast/semen effects, some reported to persist after stopping) are genuinely rarer on the topical form has not been measured in a trial powered to answer it. Both forms are prescription-only and contraindicated around pregnancy.
