A user's success in hair regrowth after taking oral and topical medications, such as minoxidil and dutasteride, and using microneedling. Other users shared their experiences and advice with treatments used to reverse hair loss.
community Is this regrowth? 2 months and 2 weeks comparison.
The conversation is about a user questioning if they have experienced hair regrowth after using topical minoxidil and oral finasteride for 2 months and 2 weeks, with mixed opinions on whether the perceived changes are due to lighting or actual regrowth. Most users suggest that noticeable regrowth typically takes 6-12 months, and the differences in photos may be due to lighting and hair styling.
community Broccoli supplement (Sulforaphane) for better Minox results?
Broccoli or sulforaphane supplements are unlikely to improve Minoxidil results due to the need for an unrealistically large dose. Tretinoin, micro-needling, and low-dose oral Minoxidil may be more effective for those lacking the necessary enzyme in the scalp.

- Is metformin used topically for hair loss, or only as an oral tablet? Approved metformin products are oral tablets only; there is no approved topical metformin for hair loss. Published human reports of topical use are a handful of uncontrolled, pharmacy-compounded case reports in scarring alopecia, and the most-cited clinical series actually used the oral drug.
- Is sulforaphane used in oral supplements or topical hair treatments? Sulforaphane is primarily used in oral supplements, not topical hair treatments.
- Is white tea more effective in topical hair products or as an oral supplement for hair growth? Neither topical nor oral white tea has any human clinical trial behind it for hair growth. Topical use has a more direct mechanistic rationale, but the only verifiable studies are a cell-culture EGCG experiment and a pharmacokinetic study with no hair outcomes.
- How does topical Estradiol compare to oral Estradiol in treating alopecia? Topical estradiol delivers hormone to the scalp with less systemic exposure, but evidence is thin and it is still a hormone. It needs a doctor's supervision, and people with estrogen-sensitive cancers must not use it without medical approval.
