Minoxidil alone is often insufficient for treating hair loss because it doesn't address the DHT-related cause. Combining it with finasteride, a DHT blocker, is generally more effective.
The conversation is about using vitamin C and Magnesium L-Threonate for hair growth by reducing DHT binding to dermal papilla cells. The original post about vitamin C's pH levels and sebum control was possibly removed by a moderator.
The conversation is about someone's hair transplant progress after 9 months on finasteride and oral minoxidil, considering switching to dutasteride. Specific treatments mentioned include hair transplant, finasteride, oral minoxidil, and a potential switch to dutasteride.
Minoxidil gains are not permanent without continued use, even with DHT suppression. Combining treatments like Dutasteride, Finasteride, and RU58841 may help maintain hair, but stopping Minoxidil typically results in hair loss.
Minoxidil may cause wrinkles and dark circles, which some users report can be mitigated by adjusting dosage. Reactions vary, and while some dismiss these side effects, others experience significant changes.
