1 year ago 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.
community Keratin microspheres - breakthrough
A gel of keratin microspheres promotes hair follicle growth, showing similar effectiveness to minoxidil in mice. The treatment activates hair growth pathways and reduces inflammation, with potential applications in drug delivery for hair-related disorders.
community Countering oral minoxidil side effects by taking collagen supplements?
Oral minoxidil may deplete collagen, potentially causing skin aging. Users discuss whether taking collagen supplements can counteract this effect.
community My fin “sides” are positive
Finasteride made the original poster feel better, with increased energy and less frequent urination, but they were advised to see a doctor due to potential prostate issues. Some users reported positive effects like increased libido and reduced anxiety, while others experienced negative side effects like brain fog and erectile dysfunction.
community How ET-02 Works. Also no proof that it's better than Minoxidil. At least for now.
ET-02, a PAI-1 inhibitor, is not proven to be more effective than Minoxidil for hair loss. Other treatments like finasteride, dutasteride, PP405, and AMP-303 are also discussed, focusing on cellular senescence and oxidative stress.
