Finasteride can cause gynecomastia, which may be reversible by stopping the drug and using selective estrogen receptor modulators (SERMs) like tamoxifen. Lifestyle changes such as weight loss and avoiding alcohol can also help, but surgery may be needed if the condition persists.
community Tretinoin vs. micro-needling: what increases sulfotransferase activity more?
Tretinoin and microneedling both enhance hair growth through different mechanisms, with microneedling being considered safe for long-term use. Optimal microneedling needle length varies, but 0.8 mm is suggested for hair growth, and a Dermastamp is recommended to avoid skin damage.
community Does melatonin dissolve in isopropyl alcohol
The conversation discusses making a topical melatonin solution for hair loss treatment, questioning if isopropyl alcohol can dissolve melatonin. Melatonin is soluble in lipids and alcohol, but it's unstable and should be mixed fresh regularly; it may help hair growth by affecting certain cellular signaling pathways and has anti-androgenic effects.
community HLT Megathread on HMI-115 (key takeaways in comments)
HMI-115, a newly discovered hair loss treatment that could potentially be effective for those with diffuse thinning and telogen effluvium. It is based on prolactin receptor antagonist signaling and has already undergone Phase I trials in women, with potential commercialization by 2027.
