The user started using finasteride, minoxidil, and biotin for male pattern baldness (MPB) and is experiencing rapid thinning. They are questioning if low blood flow to the head could be contributing to their hair loss.
community (comment) providing facts on people talking nonsense about minoxidil and BP-medicaton in general
Minoxidil is used for hair loss and sometimes for high blood pressure, but it's outdated for the latter. For high blood pressure, it's combined with a beta blocker and diuretic to manage side effects.
community Why hasn’t anyone made a "DHT sponge" biologic yet???
The conversation discusses the potential for developing a biologic "DHT sponge" to neutralize DHT in the bloodstream as a treatment for hair loss, suggesting it could be more targeted and have fewer side effects than current treatments like finasteride and dutasteride. Concerns include the complexity, cost, and potential side effects of such a treatment, as well as skepticism about its feasibility and market interest.
community Dental technician is convinced that he has found the cause of pattern hair loss
A dental technician claims malocclusion causes pattern hair loss due to poor scalp circulation. Users debate this, noting treatments like finasteride, minoxidil, and microneedling focus on DHT and blood flow.
