5 / 675 resultscommunity How is it that golden era bodybuilders kept their hair while blasting gear while in the modern era most are bald? I’m convinced there’s something in our food and water causing MPB to speed up
The conversation is about the difference in hair loss between bodybuilders in the "Golden Era" and modern bodybuilders. Some users speculate that factors such as the types and doses of steroids used, genetics, diet, microplastics, and overall health may contribute to hair loss. Hair loss prevention medication and transplants are mentioned as potential treatments.
community Diffuse hair loss and scalp biopsies
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 ~5 months topical minoxidil + oral finasteride results (swipe images). Slacked with minoxidil this past month, trying to wean off anyways. My last update because I’m hopping off fin and switching to RU in a few weeks (nothing to do with fin efficacy, just experimenting).
The user experienced significant hair thickening after using topical minoxidil and oral finasteride for about 5 months and is considering switching from finasteride to RU58841. Other users encourage the original poster to continue the current treatment due to the positive results.
