The conversation is about the difficulty in obtaining GT20029, a hair loss treatment, due to patent issues and the need to resort to group buys or Chinese labs for acquisition. Specific treatments mentioned include Minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841.
User gained hair with topical minoxidil and finasteride, then experienced shedding after starting pyrilutamide. After 12 weeks, new hairs grew and existing hairs thickened, hoping for more improvement in a year.
The user has been using pyrilutamide 0.5% for over 7 weeks, alongside dutasteride, and noticed some hair improvement, particularly at the temples. They plan to continue and possibly try a 1% solution, with no shedding or side effects reported.
Pyrilutamide is officially available for purchase, and users suggest Fluridil as an alternative topical anti-androgen. Some users report positive results with pyrilutamide from Koshine.
OP experienced diffuse thinning for 11 years and used Minoxidil and Finasteride previously. They now use Pyrilutamide 0.5% and Alfatradiol 0.1%, resulting in significantly reduced hair loss.
