      community Mineral deficiencies vs MPB vs Thyroid

      in Chat  8 upvotes 2 months ago
      The user experienced hair improvement using a topical finasteride, minoxidil, and tretinoin combo, along with supplements like zinc, copper, magnesium, vitamin D3, K2, iodine, and boron. They believe these changes are due to addressing mineral deficiencies and possibly thyroid issues, despite skepticism from others.

      community I feel like people here shrug off nutritional issues too quickly. Particularly for Retrograde Alopecia.

      The user believes Retrograde Alopecia may be linked to vitamin imbalances, specifically from taking too much Vitamin E, A, Zinc, and Selenium, and suggests it could be a middle ground between Androgenic Alopecia and Telogen Effluvium. Treatments for hair loss mentioned include Androgen inhibitors and improving lifestyle factors like nutrition and sleep, with topical melatonin also recommended for Retrograde Alopecia.
