5 / 76 resultscommunity 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 Being Safe on Oral Minoxidil: tl;dr on the literature.
Oral minoxidil is effective for hair loss but can cause cardiovascular side effects, such as pericardial effusion, especially in those with genetic predispositions. Starting with low doses and monitoring cardiovascular health are advised to reduce risks.
community People need to start accepting that only medical therapy (Fin/Dut) can save your hair in the long run.
Minoxidil can regrow hair but doesn't address the underlying issue of DHT, leading to continued hair loss. Users discuss their experiences with finasteride and dutasteride, mentioning side effects, personal outcomes, and alternatives like microdosing topical finasteride.
community Is Vitamin D the cause of my baldness or slow regrowth?
The conversation discusses hair loss treatments, including oral finasteride, topical minoxidil, and microneedling, and the potential impact of Vitamin D and folic acid deficiencies on hair regrowth. It suggests that while male pattern baldness is the primary cause, addressing vitamin deficiencies may aid in improving regrowth.
community One and a half year on meds (fin/dut, minox)
The user has been using oral minoxidil, finasteride, and dutasteride to prevent hair loss, despite not showing significant balding. Many commenters believe the treatment is excessive, while some support early prevention.
