5 / 24 resultscommunity does lowering your prolactin levels regrow hair?
The potential of lowering prolactin levels to regrow hair, with a reference to Bayer's drug HMI 115 which has been indicated as having this effect. Treatments mentioned include Minoxidil and Finasteride, as well as RU58841.
community Does lowering serum prolactin lower prolactin in the scalp?
The conversation discusses whether not masturbating (semen retention) affects hair loss, with opinions varying but generally dismissing the idea. Some participants mention using hair loss treatments like Minoxidil, Finasteride, and RU58841, but the effectiveness and relation to prolactin levels in the scalp are debated.
community how about progesterone cream?
Progesterone cream might help with hair loss by inhibiting DHT production and suppressing prolactin, which can increase DHT. Some dermatologists have used progesterone for hair loss treatment, and it has been effective, sometimes combined with minoxidil, finasteride, and hydrocortisone.
community HMI-115: What We Know So Far. HMI-115 (also known as BAY1158061) is a new pharmaceutical drug developed by a biopharmaceutical company called Bioinvent and licensed by Bayer
HMI-115 is a new drug developed by Bioinvent and licensed by Bayer, with mixed opinions on its potential effectiveness. Some users are skeptical and prefer proven treatments like Minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841.
community Why HMI115 should work if it doesn’t affect dht?
Hair growth can be induced without stopping DHT, as seen with Minoxidil. HMI115 may work by promoting follicle growth, not targeting the root cause of hair loss (DHT).
