DHT is important for sexual function and mood, but finasteride and dutasteride can reduce DHT, causing side effects like reduced libido and erectile dysfunction. These treatments are effective for hair loss, but their impact on DHT leads to debate.
community Does everyone experiencing male pattern baldness have an oily scalp?
Male pattern baldness can occur with or without an oily scalp, but an oily scalp and seborrheic dermatitis can worsen the condition. Treatments like finasteride, minoxidil, and ketoconazole shampoo are used, and managing diet and scalp care can help control symptoms.
community Split-scalp pilot study to evaluate effectiveness of Minoxidil 0.5% MMP® versus Topical Minoxidil 5% in the treatment of Female Pattern Hair Loss
Minoxidil 0.5% MMP® showed better results in parietal-vertex regions for less advanced female pattern hair loss compared to Minoxidil 5%. MMP® with Minoxidil can improve the quality of life for these patients.
community Why does MPB only affect the scalp
Male pattern baldness (MPB) may be influenced by androgen receptors in scalp hair follicles and potentially poor blood flow. Transplanted hair is not immune to DHT, and factors like inflammation and scalp tension might also contribute to hair loss.
community Opinions on Scalp fibrosis and DHT?
The conversation discusses the theory that scalp fibrosis contributes to male pattern baldness (MPB) by increasing DHT concentration, and mentions treatments like Minoxidil. The user seeks opinions on the theory and the effectiveness of scalp massages.
