A user shared progress pictures after one year of daily 0.5 mg Dutasteride for hair loss prevention and regrowth. Other users discussed the effectiveness of Dutasteride compared to Finasteride and Minoxidil.
The conclusion of the conversation is that the user started using 5% Minoxidil for hair loss and is happy with the progress. They also mentioned being trans and coming off testosterone, which they believe will help prevent further hair loss. Some users suggested using finasteride as well.
The 24-hour waiting period after dermarolling before applying minoxidil is unnecessary. New research supports the simultaneous application of minoxidil with microneedling for better hair growth results.
The post discusses speeding up verteporfin trials for hair loss treatment. The original poster, involved in the trials, requests help in crowdsourcing doctor emails to spread awareness and gather more support for the trials.
Procapil is marketed as a natural hair loss treatment but lacks strong evidence and is industry-biased. Minoxidil and Finasteride are the only FDA-approved treatments for androgenetic alopecia.
