A 19-year-old with rapid hair loss since 16 is considering a hair transplant but refuses to take finasteride or any 5α-Reductase inhibitors. They are currently using minoxidil, tretinoin, and microneedling with a Derminator 2, and only want hair until age 27.
community How far are we from a treatment better than finasteride?
Dutasteride is more effective than finasteride for hair loss as it blocks more of the enzyme causing hair loss. New treatments like stem cell therapies and alternatives to minoxidil are being explored, but major advancements are still years away.
community Found it. Sulforaphane, a phytochemical in broccoli sprouts, promotes hair growth (60% regeneration in mice) by accelerating the degradation of DHT.
Sulforaphane, found in broccoli sprouts, promotes hair growth by degrading DHT. Users discuss its potential benefits and joke about unconventional application methods.
community 7 months of dutasteride progress after fin lost it's effectiveness.
After 6 years of finasteride losing effectiveness for hair loss, the user switched to dutasteride and topical minoxidil, seeing good progress after 7 months without significant side effects. They transitioned from finasteride to dutasteride over 2 months against doctor's advice.
