5 / 179 resultscommunity I talked to urologist about Finasteride and just wanted to share what he said
The effects of Finasteride, a drug used to treat hair loss, prostate problems and other conditions. The post by iaskedadoctor describes the conversations they had with a Urologist about the effects of the drug on DHT levels throughout the body, how lower doses are beneficial in reducing side effects, how erectile dysfunction can be psychological as well as physiological, how morning erections are not necessarily important, and how persistent side effects appear to be rare. People also shared their experiences with taking Finasteride for hair loss, including potential side effects such as reduced ejaculate force and development of man boobs.
community Androgenetic alopecia is a skin disease: DHT-mediated skin disorders
Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) impacts various skin conditions, including Androgenetic alopecia and seborrheic dermatitis, by causing overactivity in sebaceous glands. Topical medications Tacrolimus and Clobetasol can reduce these inflammatory conditions, and treatments like RU58841, Minoxidil, and Finasteride may also be beneficial.
community Microneedling-induced shedding after 5 months?
A user experienced significant hair loss after starting microneedling, despite using dutasteride and topical minoxidil. They are advised to consult a doctor as the shedding pattern is unusual and may indicate alopecia areata or other scalp conditions.
community Do you recommend oral minoxidil after your full experience?
LemonyBonobo started oral minoxidil a week ago, experiencing significant shedding, and is concerned about potentially worsening their hair condition. They also use dutasteride, topical minoxidil, and dermarolling. Elyktronix, who has been on oral minoxidil for 15 months, recommends it, noting that shedding can be a positive response and that results take time.
community Has anyone else had much worse hair from excessive use of Nizoral?
Excessive use of Nizoral can lead to dry, brittle hair and is not recommended more than 1-2 times a week. Users suggest using conditioner to mitigate dryness and note that Nizoral is more effective for treating fungal issues rather than regrowing hair.
