5 / 58 resultscommunity So does oral minoxidil age your skin or not
Oral minoxidil may cause dry skin and dark eye bags but doesn't significantly age the skin. Topical minoxidil is toxic to cats, and some users prefer finasteride.
community New and Interesting HairLoss Studies/Papers/Reviews
Hair loss treatments discussed include Dutasteride with Ketoconazole, tissue engineering strategies, and androgenetic alopecia therapies. Massage doubles follicular retention, improving treatment effectiveness.
community [25, F] [RANT] Shedding since March 2020. This just isn’t fair.
User "missbloombastic" has been experiencing hair loss since 2016 and tried min, fin, multivitamins, and spiro with mixed results. Another user shares their struggle with hair loss and its impact on self-esteem, while a third user suggests checking blood tests and confirming the cause of hair loss.
community Finasteride, also known as Propecia or Proscar, treats male pattern baldness and enlarged prostate in millions of men worldwide. But a new study suggests the drug may also provide a surprising and life-saving benefit: lowering cholesterol and cutting the overall risk of cardiovascular disease.
The conversation discusses the potential benefits of finasteride (Fin) for lowering cholesterol and reducing cardiovascular disease risk, with users sharing personal experiences and opinions on the medication's effects on health and hair loss. Some users report positive changes in cholesterol levels after taking finasteride, while others are skeptical or joke about its effects.
community Protac degradation of the androgen receptor in mice shows good efficacy and no systemic drug could be found
The efficacy of degrading the androgen receptor through dermal application in DP cells, a delivery system for topical drugs that involves dissolving microneedles, and rosemary oil as an alternative anti-androgen.
