5 / 1000+ 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 How are your experiences with Dutasteride?
Dutasteride is often preferred over Finasteride due to fewer side effects and better hair regrowth. Initial side effects like lowered libido may occur but typically diminish over time.
community Warning: Minoxidil usage around pets
Minoxidil is highly toxic to pets, especially cats and dogs, even in small amounts. Many users have switched to oral minoxidil to prevent accidental exposure to their pets.
community So...why does switching from fin to dut ruin people's hair?
Switching from finasteride to dutasteride can cause hair shedding, with mixed results; some see improvement, others see worsening. Using both treatments together initially may help reduce shedding.
community We need to keep these snake oil companies accountable.
Biotin is being misleadingly marketed as a primary treatment for androgenic alopecia, overshadowing more effective treatments like finasteride and minoxidil. There is a call for increased awareness and accountability to prevent misinformation.
