User discusses two medications for stopping hair loss: Fin (finasteride) and Dut (dutasteride). Mixed experiences and side effects are shared, with some users seeing positive results.
Finasteride changed the user's hair texture from wavy to curly, reverting after stopping. Minoxidil was more effective for temple hair regrowth than finasteride.
CRISPR shows promise for treating hair loss by targeting specific genes. Current treatments include Minoxidil and finasteride, but CRISPR could offer a more precise solution, though it is still expensive and in early stages.
The user regrew their hairline using mechanical stimulation, including a 1.5mm derma roller weekly, daily scalp massages, and other treatments like Nizoral, zinc pyrithione, fish oil, and Lipogaine The Big 5. They did not use Minoxidil or finasteride.
Dutasteride may not effectively stop scalp hair loss and can cause thinning of facial and body hair, including eyebrows. Users suggest considering other causes like autoimmune conditions or vitamin deficiencies and exploring treatments like finasteride or minoxidil.
