Dutasteride is more effective than finasteride, has neuroprotective benefits, and may prevent acne. Despite initial concerns about metabolic effects, further research suggests it is safe for most users, especially if not hypogonadal.
community Hair progress over 7 years (Oral fin 1mg + oral min 2.5mg + topical min 5% + micro-needling)
The user shared a 7-year hair progress journey, starting with occasional minoxidil use and later including a finasteride prescription, online prescriptions, and microneedling. Significant hair growth was achieved, but side effects led to a reduction in medication dosage.
community What regimen do I need to get this hairline?
Discussing a regimen to improve the user's hairline, with treatments proposed including minoxidil, rectal microneedling, IV drip of minoxidil, laser removal, PRP injection, topical minoxidil, divine protein shakes, stem cell injections, and keto shampoo.

community If You Have DUPA, PLEASE READ THIS: Everyone Should Be Scalp Biopsied
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.
