Hidradenitis suppurativa may be a type of autoinflammatory skin disease linked to gene mutations and immune system issues.

5 / 27 resultscommunity How ET-02 Works. Also no proof that it's better than Minoxidil. At least for now.
ET-02, a PAI-1 inhibitor, is not proven to be more effective than Minoxidil for hair loss. Other treatments like finasteride, dutasteride, PP405, and AMP-303 are also discussed, focusing on cellular senescence and oxidative stress.
community Is tazarotene potentially better than tretinoin in combination with topical minoxidil?
Tazarotene may be more effective than tretinoin when combined with topical minoxidil for hair loss due to its selective binding to RAR-beta and gamma, though it can cause irritation. Tazarotene's potency can lead to indirect inflammatory reactions despite potentially causing less irritation than tretinoin.
community If You Have DUPA, PLEASE READ THIS: Everyone Should Be Scalp Biopsied
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.
community Has anyone here tried taking GLA supplements?
GLA may help with hair loss due to its anti-inflammatory properties and 5ar enzyme inhibition. It's considered potentially more important than biotin, especially for those already using finasteride and dutasteride.
community You will lose hair if your prostaglandins aren't in balance
Prostaglandin balance affects hair loss, particularly in conditions like Lichen Planopilaris, where an imbalance can lead to hair follicle damage. Treatments mentioned include prostaglandin analogs and Pioglitazone HCL, with a focus on maintaining prostaglandin equilibrium for potential hair regrowth.
