5 / 1000+ resultscommunity Here are the results from my journey! I used saw palmetto tablets instead of Finasteride(I was afraid of using it), 5% Minoxidil spray and Derma Pen once a week 1.5mm.
The user shared their positive hair regrowth experience using saw palmetto tablets, 5% minoxidil spray, and a Derma Pen. The conversation debates the effectiveness of saw palmetto versus finasteride, with some advocating for natural treatments and others emphasizing the proven results of finasteride and minoxidil, often in combination with microneedling.
community The theory that explains everything. Please help me make this big!
The post and conversation are about the role of the enzyme 3alpha-hydroxysteroid reductase in hair loss and the potential of compounds like procyanidin B2 and sulforaphane to boost its activity for hair regrowth. Further research is needed to develop effective treatments based on this theory.
community Wtf have we been doing for the last 30 years
Hair loss treatments like finasteride, minoxidil, and dutasteride work but have side effects. A permanent cure is still not available due to the complexity of hair loss and limited investment.
community Everyone is ignoring that plasma finasteride levels are 100x lower with topical compared to oral.
Topical finasteride results in plasma levels 100 times lower than oral finasteride, potentially reducing systemic side effects. Users report similar efficacy with fewer side effects, suggesting a preference for topical application.
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.
