5 / 30 resultscommunity Topical Dutasteride & Microneedling Works
Topical dutasteride, especially at higher concentrations, can be effective for hair loss when combined with microneedling to enhance absorption. Users discuss the side effects of finasteride and dutasteride, with some preferring topical treatments to avoid systemic side effects.
community Why is dutasteride's volume of distribution so much bigger than finasteride? Is it more lipophilic and crosses barriers better?
Dutasteride has a larger volume of distribution than finasteride due to its lipophilic nature, allowing it to concentrate in hydrophobic areas and making it difficult to excrete. A user experiencing hair loss has been using oral finasteride for 10 months with minimal regrowth and is considering switching to dutasteride or adding oral minoxidil.
community Possible solution: 2.5mg DUT for everyone
A user is experimenting with creating a DIY oral Dutasteride solution using raw powder, MCT oil, and Vitamin E to reduce costs. Others discuss their experiences with similar methods and the challenges of sourcing and testing Dutasteride.
community DHT Harms Scalp Microbiome: DHT Itch is REAL
Increased Malassezia and Cutibacterium in the scalp microbiome are linked to higher sebum production and inflammation in androgenetic alopecia (AGA). Treatments include ciclopirox shampoo, benzoyl peroxide shampoo, clobetasol propionate, calcipotriol, minoxidil, finasteride, and dutasteride.
community Soundwaves & Electricity Grows Hair? | Peptide Delivery Model.
Iontophoresis and sonophoresis can enhance drug delivery into the scalp. Combining these methods may improve the effectiveness of topical treatments like dutasteride and certain peptides.
