5 / 1000+ resultscommunity AGA evaluation and first steps - BEGINNER MEGAPOST
The conversation discusses androgenic alopecia (AGA) and its treatments, focusing on finasteride, minoxidil, and ketoconazole shampoo. Finasteride is recommended as essential for preventing further hair loss.
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.
community Just popped my first fin, excited as hell!
A user shared their excitement about starting finasteride for hair loss after trying various ineffective methods. Other users discussed their experiences with finasteride, including shedding phases and side effects, with one mentioning using topical finasteride and minoxidil.
community Does Nuking Scalp DHT Theoretically Make Minoxidil Gains Permanent?
Minoxidil gains are not permanent without continued use, even with DHT suppression. Combining treatments like Dutasteride, Finasteride, and RU58841 may help maintain hair, but stopping Minoxidil typically results in hair loss.
community My experience and a discourse on “DUPA”
How diffuse unpatterned alopecia (DUPA) is not an invitation to self-diagnose oneself with aggressive AGA and that seeking a specialized dermatologist may help people experiencing hair loss. Treatment options discussed include topical clobetasol propionate, oral minoxidil, and discontinuing finasteride.
