5 / 102 resultscommunity 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 My understanding of how androgenetic alopecia works (plus FIN and DUT)
Androgenetic alopecia is affected by scalp DHT levels, not sensitivity, with treatments like finasteride and dutasteride aiming to optimize these levels. Personalized DHT management is crucial for effective hair growth.
community What is the cause of "DHT itch"?
The conversation discusses the effects of using Tongkat ali and dioscorea to raise DHT levels, leading to increased body hair growth and an itchy scalp, without causing hair loss. The discussion also debates the role of DHT in male characteristics and its impact on sexual function, with differing opinions on its importance and effects.
community DHT Harms Scalp Microbiome: DHT Itch is REAL
Increased Malassezia and Cutibacterium in the scalp microbiome are linked to higher sebum production and inflammation in androgenetic alopecia (AGA). Treatments include ciclopirox shampoo, benzoyl peroxide shampoo, clobetasol propionate, calcipotriol, minoxidil, finasteride, and dutasteride.
community How dutasteride makes hair loss impossible
Dutasteride is discussed as a treatment that makes hair loss impossible, with some users sharing experiences of hair regrowth and side effects. Finasteride and oral minoxidil are also mentioned as treatments, with concerns about side effects and effectiveness.
