The post and conversation are about the role of the enzyme 3alpha-hydroxysteroid reductase in hair loss and the potential of compounds like procyanidin B2 and sulforaphane to boost its activity for hair regrowth. Further research is needed to develop effective treatments based on this theory.
NMN shows promise in promoting hair growth by reducing oxidative stress and weakening androgens. It may be a beneficial addition to hair loss treatments like Minoxidil and Finasteride.
Post Finasteride Syndrome (PFS) may result from epigenetic changes and gut microbiota alterations. Supplementing with Allopregnanolone might protect against these adverse effects.
Gut microbiota significantly influences androgen metabolism, impacting hair loss treatments like finasteride. Probiotics, dietary changes, and fecal microbiota transplants may help manage DHT levels and improve hair health.
A 42-year-old male shared his 1.5-year hair regrowth progress using 1.25mg finasteride daily and regular doses of minoxidil twice a day, and recently started using the Derminator 2. He also mentioned his battle with cancer and Cushing's syndrome, which affected his weight and hair.
