community If You Have DUPA, PLEASE READ THIS: Everyone Should Be Scalp Biopsied
Scalp biopsies are crucial for diagnosing hair loss conditions like Diffuse Unpatterned Alopecia (DUPA) and retrograde hair loss, as treatments like finasteride and dutasteride may not be effective if other conditions are present. Combining PPAR-GAMMA agonists with retinoids could improve treatments for conditions like Lichen Planopilaris.
community Why is human evolution like this 😂
Why androgenic alopecia affects the scalp rather than other body parts, potential explanations for this phenomenon, treatments available to combat hair loss, and the implications of male attractiveness in modern society.
community Why do we get bald from evolutionary perspective
Baldness is not an evolutionary disadvantage because it occurs after reproductive age. Treatments like Minoxidil and Finasteride are used for androgenetic alopecia but don't address the root cause.
community Please explain this Minoxidil phenomena
The post discusses the difference in effects of Minoxidil (Min) on scalp and facial hair. The user questions why Min-induced hair growth on the scalp is temporary, while facial hair growth seems permanent, even after stopping Min. They propose theories, including different Min mechanisms on body and facial hair, the role of DHT, and the possibility of not achieving fully terminal hair. The responses include personal experiences and theories about Min's effects on hair growth.
community Just started RU a month ago after being on fin and min for almost 3 years. Progress so far: My temples were pretty bare before this. Really hoping at least some of these become terminal.
A user started using RU58841 a month ago after using finasteride and minoxidil for nearly three years, hoping for hair regrowth at the temples. Other users suggest vitamin B supplements and microneedling to improve hair thickness, and one mentions the possibility of a hair transplant for the temples.
