Dutasteride takes 1-3 months to affect scalp DHT levels, not just a week. The prostate absorbs Dutasteride faster than the scalp due to different vascular networks and enzyme densities.
community Cell senescence-targeted treatment for hair loss, has anyone tried any products/enzymes etc. that use this theory
DHT causes hair loss by driving cells into senescence, and a polyphenol in black chokeberry may reverse this. A product using this theory is being considered for use alongside finasteride, minoxidil, and microneedling.

community Looks like a real cure to the root of baldness (DHT-induced senescence) was proven earlier this year
A study that outlines the full model for androgenic alopecia (AGA) which links DHT to cellular senescence in dermal papilla cells, and suggests black chokeberry as a source of cyanidin 3-O-arabinoside polyphenol with potential anti-oxidant properties that could reverse this process. The post encourages reaching out to experts in anti-aging and longevity to research treatments involving the polyphenol.
