research Trichoscopy and LC-OCT findings in sonidegib-induced alopecia in patients with advanced basal cell carcinoma

September 2024 in “Dermatology Reports”

In this study, 45 patients with advanced basal cell carcinoma treated with the medication sonidegib experienced a 24% incidence of alopecia, with detailed trichoscopic and LC-OCT examination revealing specific hair changes, suggesting LC-OCT might help identify early signs of alopecia from sonidegib use.

research Line‐field confocal optical coherence tomography: Characteristic hints for the diagnosis of scarring alopecia due to lupus erythematodes: A preliminary study

3 citations , August 2024 in “Skin Research and Technology”

In this study, LC-OCT imaging was found to noninvasively identify specific features of cicatricial alopecia due to lupus erythematosus, such as hyperreflective collagen fibers, which may aid in distinguishing it from other types of scarring alopecia.

research In vivo differentiation of scarring alopecia using line‐field confocal optical coherence tomography: a pilot study

1 citations , January 2026 in “JDDG Journal der Deutschen Dermatologischen Gesellschaft”

In this study, LC-OCT was used to distinguish between subtypes of scarring alopecia, laying the groundwork for further hypotheses and future research in larger and longitudinal studies to examine treatment responses.

research Line‐field confocal optical coherence tomography: A new diagnostic method of lichen planopilaris

1 citations , October 2023 in “Skin research and technology”

This study found that line-field confocal optical coherence tomography effectively visualized key diagnostic features of classic lichen planopilaris in real time, suggesting its potential as a valuable diagnostic tool.

research Line‐field confocal optical coherence tomography in alopecia areata and histopathological correlation

November 2024 in “International Journal of Dermatology”

This study found that line-field confocal optical coherence tomography correlates well with histopathological and dermoscopic findings in alopecia areata, suggesting it could be a useful diagnostic and monitoring tool for the condition.

community Unexpected Serum DHT Elevation after Generic Dutasteride Use.

in Finasteride/Dutasteride 38 upvotes 1 year ago

Switching from finasteride to a generic dutasteride led to unexpectedly high DHT levels, prompting a switch to a reputed brand and consideration of softgel capsules for better absorption. The user plans to retest DHT levels and may return to finasteride if issues persist.

community A lot of blood tests that I have done until now (Mainly Hormones).

4 upvotes 5 years ago

The user shared their experience with hair loss treatments, including oral and topical Finasteride and Minoxidil, and detailed various blood test results to track hormonal changes. They noted that while DHT levels initially decreased with topical Finasteride, they later increased, but they observed positive results in hair growth.

community Finasteride does deplete important nuero-active steroids

11 upvotes 3 years ago

Finasteride can reduce neuroactive steroids, causing side effects like depression, anxiety, and sexual dysfunction. Some users experience persistent symptoms after stopping finasteride, while others use alternative treatments like topical solutions.

community Liquid Chromatography–Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS) VS Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA)

5 upvotes 1 year ago

Finasteride and Nizoral shampoo with Ketoconazole are used for hair loss treatment. Liquid Chromatography–Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS) is recommended over Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) for more accurate DHT testing.
