Scalp tension from the occipitalis muscle is theorized to contribute to hair loss, but most believe DHT and genetics are the main causes. Treatments like finasteride and minoxidil are considered more effective than addressing scalp tension.
community Expectations control for SCUBE3
SCUBE3, a protein linked to hair growth in moles, was discovered over 25 years ago and is being developed by Amplifica for potential hair loss treatment. Concerns exist about SCUBE3's association with cancer, as it is a protein that promotes cell growth, which could potentially trigger cancer development if used for hair growth therapy.
community Exosomes - do they work as results look promising?
Exosomes are being considered for hair regrowth, with some users reporting initial improvement. One user moved on to using dutasteride and oral minoxidil with positive results.

community VERDICT: Do I need microneedling if I run oral minoxidil?
This conversation discusses the effectiveness of microneedling for hair loss, particularly when used in combination with oral minoxidil and finasteride. It is suggested that microneedling alone can be more effective than topical minoxidil alone, but it won't have a synergistic effect with oral finasteride. Advice was also given regarding researching treatments further before taking action.
