community Hormonal Imbalance Theory and the "Trash Hormone"...

2 upvotes 3 years ago

Balancing hormones, particularly testosterone and DHT, may prevent hair loss and slow aging. Treatments include finasteride, dutasteride, zinc, magnesium, collagen, and natural DHT-blocking shampoos.

community Does age play a role in how you respond to 5AR inhibitors? (finasteride/dutasteride)

in Research/Science 24 upvotes 2 years ago

The conversation discusses whether age affects the side effects and effectiveness of hair loss treatments like finasteride and dutasteride. Some believe early treatment yields better results, while others mention varied outcomes across ages and personal regrowth experiences without a clear consensus on age impact.

community Yes your lifestyle and diet has its role in hair loss.

in Chat 296 upvotes 1 year ago

Diet and lifestyle changes can reduce hair shedding but won't regrow hair lost to genetic male pattern baldness. Treatments like finasteride and dutasteride are necessary for significant hair regrowth.

community second shed on dutasteride, but a woman

2 upvotes 1 year ago

A woman experiencing hormonal hair loss is on dutasteride and bicalutamide, which initially improved her hair, but she is now experiencing a second shedding phase with significant short hair loss. Despite normal hormone levels and no deficiencies, she is unsure if this shedding is normal and seeks advice.

community Testosterone and hair loss seeming irrelevance

82 upvotes 3 years ago

The conversation is about the role of testosterone in hair loss and the effectiveness of different treatments. The conclusion is that DHT is the main culprit for hair loss, and finasteride has been proven to work long-term in maintaining and regrowing hair. Testosterone may have a minor effect, but it is not the primary cause of hair loss.

learn Lavender

Is lavender effective for hormonal hair loss or just stress? Lavender may help with stress-related hair loss but has limited evidence for hormonal hair loss.

learn procapil

Want to stop hormonal hair loss without touching your hormone levels? Procapil could block the enzyme doing the damage. Procapil's supplier describes it as inhibiting 5-alpha reductase at the scalp without changing hormone levels, but the published support is cell and animal work plus one small human study of a caffeine-plus-Procapil formula. It is a cosmetic ingredient, not an approved hair-loss treatment, and no trial has compared it with finasteride or minoxidil.

learn Baicapil

Losing hair from hormonal imbalance? Baicapil might block DHT without messing with your hormones. No published study shows that Baicapil blocks DHT — the only data on the ingredient itself is the manufacturer's own unpublished dossier, and the baicalin research behind the claim is cancer cell-line work in which the effect was explicitly independent of the androgen receptor.

learn Adenosine

Adenosine : Can it help if my hair loss is due to a hormonal imbalance like PCOS or DHT? Adenosine may help improve hair growth affected by hormonal imbalances like PCOS or DHT.

learn Bicalutamide

Why are some women using bicalutamide to fight hormonal hair loss? Bicalutamide blocks androgens, helping women combat hormonal hair loss effectively.
