research Synthesis and Study of Some 17a-Aza-D-Homo Steroids as 5α-Reductase Inhibitors
The research found that compound 6, a newly created steroid, is more effective at inhibiting 5α-reductase (an enzyme) than current treatments, suggesting it could be a better option for treating urinary tract symptoms in men.
research Skin Biopsy
Correct skin biopsy techniques are crucial to avoid misdiagnosis of skin diseases.
research Significance of the S100A4 Protein in Psoriasis
The S100A4 protein is more common in psoriatic skin and could be a target for treating psoriasis.
research Induction of Transforming Growth Factor-Beta 1 by Androgen Is Mediated by Reactive Oxygen Species in Hair Follicle Dermal Papilla Cells
Androgens increase a growth factor in hair cells by creating reactive oxygen species, and antioxidants might help treat hair loss.

5 / 8 resultscommunity Still high DHT on finasteride
A user reports high DHT levels despite taking finasteride and is concerned about inconsistent blood test results. They also take modafinil, vitamin D, and magnesium supplements.
community Pre Finasteride Treatment, is testing for free DHT necessary?
The conversation is about whether testing for free DHT is necessary before starting Finasteride for hair loss, despite having other hormone tests available. One person suggests that genetic response to DHT is more important than DHT levels and advises starting Finasteride without the free DHT test.
community Finasteyd topical 0.025% minoxidil and caffeine action
The user "OP" uses a combination of topical minoxidil 5%, finasteride 0.025%, and caffeine to combat hair loss, with noticeable results over 5-6 months. Side effects include unwanted body hair growth and an itchy scalp, but no significant sexual side effects.
community Testosterone is 1600, would taking low dose anti-androgens be a viable treatment option for people who’s T spikes on DHT-blockers?
The post and conversation are about the user's high testosterone levels and their worsening hair loss despite trying various treatments. They are considering using low doses of anti-androgens to lower their testosterone levels as a potential solution.
community Diffuse hair loss and scalp biopsies
Scalp biopsies are crucial for diagnosing hair loss conditions like Diffuse Unpatterned Alopecia (DUPA) and retrograde hair loss, 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.
