A custom-made serum based on double-blind studies for AGA, which includes natural ingredients such as rosemary oil, procyanidin B-2, saw palmetto extract, curcuma aeruginosa, pumpkin seed oil and castor oil. The user has updated their recipe to include apple poly procyanidin B-2 4% concentration and other ingredients before topping it off with Pura d'or serum.
community Phase II topical dut study - outperforms oral fin with a minor DHT reduction
Topical dutasteride 0.05% is more effective for hair growth than oral finasteride 1mg, with minimal DHT reduction. The formulation uses castor oil and MCTs for better absorption but is not widely available until 2028.
community Hydrophobic Finasteride. Why don’t we have it?
The conversation discusses the potential benefits of creating a hydrophobic version of finasteride to reduce systemic side effects while maintaining scalp health. It compares this idea to fluridil, which is designed to be hydrophobic and has less systemic absorption.
community Why is dutasteride's volume of distribution so much bigger than finasteride? Is it more lipophilic and crosses barriers better?
Dutasteride has a larger volume of distribution than finasteride due to its lipophilic nature, allowing it to concentrate in hydrophobic areas and making it difficult to excrete. A user experiencing hair loss has been using oral finasteride for 10 months with minimal regrowth and is considering switching to dutasteride or adding oral minoxidil.
community Stacking Fluridil / Topilutamide with other + aqueous topicals?
The conversation discusses how to use fluridil/topilutamide with other hair loss treatments like liquid minoxidil and CB-03-01, considering fluridil's hydrophobic nature and potential degradation with water. The user questions the necessity of washing hair only once per week as suggested by the manufacturer.
