Hair loss can begin in early adolescence and cause mental anguish. Treatments mentioned include eating cruciferous vegetables, engaging in physical activity, and maintaining scalp hygiene.
community C’est terrible - at my wits end
A 29-year-old woman is experiencing gradual hair thinning since age 15, suspects Androgenic Alopecia, and has tried 5% minoxidil with little success. She has purchased various hair loss treatments including minoxidil, dutasteride, finasteride, and spironolactone, but is cautious about starting them due to potential interactions with her ADHD medication.

The conclusion of the conversation is that the user has tried various medications and treatments for hair loss, including minoxidil, finasteride, microneedling, and nizoral shampoo, but has not seen any progress. They have decided to shave their head. Other users suggest options such as hair transplants, RU58841, hair units, and scalp micropigmentation.
community I find it crazy how some people like this bloke have 0 DHT sensitivity. He is on grams of anabolic steroids and has a full, thick head of hair. I wish all of on here had this guys hair genes lol
The conversation is about hair loss and the possibility of maintaining a full head of hair while using anabolic steroids. Some users believe that having good hair genes and taking hair loss protocols can help prevent hair loss while on steroids.
community Verteporfin and Microneedling
Clinical studies by Dr. Barghouthi and Dr. Bloxham indicate that Verteporfin, when used with FUE and FUT hair transplantation methods, shows promise in hair follicle regeneration and minimal scarring due to its ability to inhibit Yes-associated protein (YAP). Microneedling at depths of 3-3.5mm, combined with Verteporfin, could potentially reactivate dormant follicles, although the optimal dosage and application method are still under investigation. Concerns remain about the DHT sensitivity of regenerated follicles, highlighting the need for further research to optimize trauma levels and Verteporfin concentrations to achieve effective and scar-free hair regeneration.
