5 / 119 resultscommunity Having androgen receptor density and sensitivity at wrong f*ing place
The conversation discusses hair loss treatments, focusing on the use of topical minoxidil, microneedling, finasteride, and dutasteride, while debating the role of testosterone and DHT in hair loss. It also touches on the potential liver health impacts of these treatments and the genetic sensitivity of hair follicles to androgens.
community 18 months Dut - Shed after shed without any gains

community Androgenetic alopecia is a skin disease: DHT-mediated skin disorders
Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) impacts various skin conditions, including Androgenetic alopecia and seborrheic dermatitis, by causing overactivity in sebaceous glands. Topical medications Tacrolimus and Clobetasol can reduce these inflammatory conditions, and treatments like RU58841, Minoxidil, and Finasteride may also be beneficial.
community Oral minoxidl - Is this a medication that's generally safe to take for life? Like what I understand oral fin is? Also do studies show that in general or in a significant amount of more cases that results with oral minox + oral fin > oral fin in terms of long-term use(talkin 20+ years).
Oral minoxidil combined with finasteride can improve hair density, but long-term safety is uncertain due to potential side effects like heart and kidney issues. Users report mixed experiences, with some experiencing side effects and others finding it effective for hair maintenance.
community GFM Gel - High concentration topical gel of Mimicking Growth Factors (GFm), a complex of polypeptides that mimic the action of endogenous growth factors and promote physiological hair regrowth. Helps strengthen the hair bulb and redensify the hair.
The conversation discusses using GFM Gel, a topical gel with polypeptides that mimic growth factors to promote hair regrowth and strengthen hair. It also mentions treatments like Minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841 for hair loss.
