5 / 86 resultscommunity New Latanoprost-Based Formula Used by Hollywood Celebrities
A new Latanoprost-based formula used by Hollywood celebrities to treat hair loss, with the formula containing minoxidil, tretinoin, melatonin, azelaic acid, zinc thymulin, vitamin B6, sandalore and methyl vanillate. It also mentions the potential of offering a combined sublingual minoxidil/oral dutasteride option in the future.
community You will lose hair if your prostaglandins aren't in balance
Prostaglandin balance affects hair loss, particularly in conditions like Lichen Planopilaris, where an imbalance can lead to hair follicle damage. Treatments mentioned include prostaglandin analogs and Pioglitazone HCL, with a focus on maintaining prostaglandin equilibrium for potential hair regrowth.
community Castor Oil - Yay or Nay?
The conversation discusses the potential benefits of castor oil for hair thickening, with one user noting it may increase prostaglandin E2 and decrease PGD2. The original poster plans to take 1-2ml orally daily.
community DLQ01: A Better "Minoxidil" PGF2a synthetic analogue.
DLQ01, a prostaglandin F2α analog, shows promise for hair growth by directly stimulating PGE2/PGF receptors without needing conversion, and can be combined with minoxidil and retinoids like tretinoin for enhanced effectiveness. Minoxidil's efficacy may be reduced by COX-1 inhibitors, but using prostaglandin analogs like Latanoprost or Bimatoprost can help maintain its effectiveness.
community Chromosome 20’s balding effects and why fin likely isn’t working for some.
Finasteride is effective for DHT/AR-driven hair loss but not for chromosome 20-driven cases, where treatments like minoxidil, prostaglandin analogs, and low-level laser therapy may be more beneficial. Genetic testing can help determine the underlying cause of hair loss to tailor treatment effectively.
