      community Why Hair Loss Needs Proper Diagnosis (Dermatologist Insight)

      in Treatment  66 upvotes 7 months ago
      Hair loss requires proper diagnosis as it can have various causes, and treatments like finasteride, minoxidil, and dutasteride are often used. Many people express frustration with dermatologists and turn to self-research and alternative sources for treatment.

      community We should actually be hopeful for these recent new developments

       112 upvotes 1 year ago
      AI advancements, like AlphaFold, are speeding up drug discovery for hair loss, promising more effective treatments. Current options like minoxidil and finasteride have limitations, but new developments could improve solutions in 5-10 years.

      community We already know how to permanently fix hair loss. The science is done. The only thing missing is the funding to run one experiment.

      in Technology  613 upvotes 4 months ago
      A permanent hair loss solution could involve reprogramming hair follicles to resist DHT using mRNA and siRNA. However, high costs, safety concerns, and the pharmaceutical industry's preference for ongoing treatments over one-time cures are major obstacles, with finasteride and minoxidil remaining standard treatments.
