learn Overview

learn Dutasteride

Heavy duty finasteride that comes with higher risks

learn Spironolactone

Is spironolactone better for hair regrowth as a pill or as a scalp solution? Oral spironolactone has the stronger published evidence for hair regrowth; topical versions cause fewer systemic side effects but have been studied far less, and no trial has compared the two head to head.

learn Bimatoprost

How does bimatoprost compare to minoxidil for hair regrowth? Minoxidil is FDA-approved for scalp hair loss and backed by decades of large trials; bimatoprost is approved only for eyelashes, and the published scalp evidence is limited to small short studies, so on the scalp it is off-label and experimental.

learn Latanoprost

Is latanoprost more effective for hair regrowth than minoxidil? No trial has compared latanoprost and minoxidil head to head. Minoxidil has large randomized trials and FDA approval for hair loss, while latanoprost's scalp evidence is a single 24-week pilot in 16 men, so the published evidence does not support latanoprost being the more effective option.

learn SCUBE3

What do clinical trials say about the safety and effectiveness of SCUBE3 for hair regrowth? No clinical trial of SCUBE3 for hair regrowth has been registered on ClinicalTrials.gov or published, so there is no human safety or effectiveness data. The evidence is limited to one 2022 laboratory and mouse study reporting that SCUBE3 activates hair follicle stem cells through TGF-beta signalling.
