Scalp biopsies are crucial for diagnosing hair loss conditions like Diffuse Unpatterned Alopecia (DUPA) and retrograde hair loss, as treatments like finasteride and dutasteride may not be effective if other conditions are present. Combining PPAR-GAMMA agonists with retinoids could improve treatments for conditions like Lichen Planopilaris.

The conversation discusses managing seborrheic dermatitis (sebderm) and male pattern baldness (MPB) with treatments like finasteride, coal tar shampoo, Nizoral, and oral minoxidil. Users suggest dietary changes, regular shampooing, and using antifungal products to control sebderm before considering minoxidil.
