Glossary Histological Findings

microscopic observations of tissue structure and abnormalities

Histological findings refer to the observations made when examining tissues under a microscope. These findings can reveal details about the structure, function, and any abnormalities in the tissue, which can help diagnose diseases or understand biological processes. For example, in the context of alopecia, histological findings might show changes in hair follicles that explain hair loss.

community [Discussion] Trichoscopy in sudden-onset AGA: Pathology and reversibility of "Yellow Dots" without 5AR-inhibitors?

4 upvotes 6 months ago

Hair loss treatments discussed include microneedling, minoxidil, tretinoin, finasteride, dutasteride, pumpkin seeds, saw palmetto, and scalp massage. The consensus is that finasteride or dutasteride is necessary for significant regrowth, while other methods may only slow hair loss.

community Fresh off the press: Dutasteride may cause chronic infertility

in Research/Science 643 upvotes 1 year ago

Dutasteride may cause chronic infertility by reducing semen volume and motility, with concerns about irreversible prostate fibrosis. Users consider switching to finasteride or using treatments like minoxidil and microneedling, weighing hair preservation against fertility.

community Efficacy and Tolerability of N-Acetyl-Cysteine for Treatment of The Early-onset Androgenetic Alopecia in Men

26 upvotes 4 years ago

N-Acetyl-Cysteine (NAC) was found to improve hair parameters in men with early-onset androgenetic alopecia, showing increased terminal hair count and decreased vellus hair count, with good tolerability. NAC, used alone or with minoxidil, may help due to its antioxidant properties, though its effectiveness can vary among individuals.

community Brief summary of new dutasteride study linked to infertility and the limitations/problems with the study

in Finasteride/Dutasteride 34 upvotes 1 year ago

Dutasteride treatment may decrease sperm concentration, but levels remain above WHO recommendations and recover after discontinuation. The study has limitations, including small sample size and lack of pre-treatment sperm data, and does not assess other fertility factors.

community microneedle, any long term users damage?

in Microneedling 35 upvotes 2 years ago

Microneedling is effective for hair growth, especially when combined with finasteride and minoxidil, but concerns exist about potential long-term skin damage. Users report increased collagen and elastin deposition, but the long-term effects on the scalp remain uncertain.
