5 / 1000+ resultscommunity Creatine Does Not Increase DHT And Does Not Cause Hair Loss - Randomized Controlled Trial
Creatine does not increase DHT levels or cause hair loss. Personal experiences vary, but scientific evidence shows no link between creatine and hair loss.
community Creatine, my hair loss, and my DHT levels. An anecdote with lab values.
Increased hair loss after starting a 10g daily creatine regimen, possibly linked to elevated DHT levels despite dutasteride use. Stopping creatine reduced shedding, but the exact cause is uncertain, with discussions on exercise and lifestyle impacts.
community Dutasteride Users, do you Still Take Creatine?
The conversation discusses the potential impact of creatine on hair loss, with some users sharing personal experiences of increased shedding while others argue there's no scientific evidence linking creatine to hair loss. The original poster switched from finasteride to dutasteride and is considering resuming creatine after monitoring its effects on hair loss.
community "When comparing 5% minoxidil with 0.60 mm or 1.20 mm needle lengths, Faghihi et al. found that 0.60 mm needle lengths led to significant hair count and diameter increases versus 5% minoxidil, whereas 1.20 mm needle lengths only saw hair count increases versus 5% minoxidil"
Microneedling with 0.6 mm needles combined with 5% minoxidil is more effective for hair count and thickness than minoxidil alone or with 1.2 mm needles. Biweekly microneedling at 0.6 mm depth is recommended for better results in treating androgenetic alopecia.
community Microneedling question on frequency
The conversation is about the proper frequency and needle length for microneedling to treat hair loss, with a user asking if they should use a 0.5 mm derma stamp daily and a 1.5 mm stamp once a week.
