      community Depressed that topical dut+min is causing unwanted hair everywhere on my face. Is there anything can I do?

      in Minoxidil  21 upvotes 2 years ago
      The conversation is about a user experiencing excessive hair growth on their body due to using topical minoxidil and dutasteride. The suggested solutions are shaving off the excess hair or considering laser epilation. It is mentioned that dutasteride does not cause extra hair growth, while minoxidil can stimulate hair growth in unintended areas. The user is advised to lower the dosage, concentration, or frequency of use and only apply the treatment to the desired areas.

      Oral minoxidil can lead to increased body hair growth, especially in areas where hair already exists, but results vary by individual. Some users report noticeable changes within a few months, while others see minimal impact; concerns about excessive hair growth are common, but many prioritize hairline improvement over body hair concerns.

      Excess sebum rich in cholesterol and triglycerides can lead to hair loss through inflammation, with treatments like Ciclopirox shampoo, Benzoyl Peroxide shampoo, and Clindamycin gel recommended for managing conditions like seborrheic dermatitis and folliculitis. Pioglitazone is suggested for Lichen Planopilaris, while Omega-3s and reducing processed foods may improve sebum quality, though genetic factors play a significant role.
