community What Determines Sulfotransferase Enzyme Levels In The Body?
Some people have low sulfotransferase enzyme levels, affecting their response to minoxidil. Lifestyle factors, genetics, and diet, like MSM intake, might influence these enzyme levels.
community Who won’t respond to minoxidil? (Studies)
Minoxidil's effectiveness varies due to differences in sulfotransferase enzyme levels in the scalp, affecting people with conditions like ASD, liver disease, and androgenic alopecia. Treatments like topical tretinoin, microneedling, and using minoxidil sulfate instead of regular minoxidil can improve results for those with low enzyme levels.
community Will minoxidil not work if there’s too much DHT present in the scalp?
The user has been using topical finasteride and minoxidil for five months with little progress and is considering oral dutasteride to lower DHT levels, questioning if minoxidil is more effective with reduced DHT. They also use microneedling and tretinoin in their treatment routine.
