KX-826 combined with minoxidil significantly increases hairgrowth compared to minoxidil alone for treating male androgenetic alopecia, with no unexpected safety concerns. Users discuss various hair loss treatments, including KX-826, minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841, sharing personal experiences and sourcing information.
A user on dutasteride for hair loss noticed hair regrowth on their head but a significant reduction in body hairgrowth. They plan to switch to finasteride and dutasteride and are considering testosterone replacement therapy but are concerned about its effects on hairgrowth.
The user shared a positive update on their hair transplant journey one year after the procedure in Turkey, where they received 4,350 grafts. They started taking finasteride at the 6-month mark and also use biotin, B6, B12, and scalp oils to support hairgrowth.
The conversation discusses why DHT (dihydrotestosterone) negatively affects scalp hair but promotes growth elsewhere on the body. Various opinions include genetic predispositions, differences in hair follicle reactions to DHT, and the potential role of Omega-3 in reducing inflammation and promoting hair health.
Ketoconazole shampoos are primarily for dandruff and fungus but may aid hairgrowth slightly, though results are minor compared to finasteride and minoxidil. Users report it helps with scalp health and inflammation, but it can dry out hair if used too often.
