As it was at 1 year
This conversation is about a user who has been using finasteride and minoxidil for 18 months to treat hair loss, with positive results. They have also made lifestyle changes such as the use of Hims shampoo and conditioner, gym workouts, and eating proteins on weekdays.
community Topical fin and min and swallowing semen
A user asked if it's safe to swallow semen from a partner using topical finasteride and minoxidil. Responses varied, but most suggested it's likely safe, with minimal risk from small amounts of finasteride in semen.
community 35m 1.5 months on oral fin/min is it too good to be true?
A 35-year-old man, balding since 18, has seen growth of small, almost white hairs all over his scalp after 1.5 months on oral finasteride and minoxidil. Users suggest sticking with the treatment for a year, adding microneedling, and potentially trying RU58841 or dutasteride.
community Is it normal to lose body hair on finasteride?
Finasteride can cause body hair loss, which is normal. It may also be due to disease or nutrient deficiencies.
community Why hasn’t anyone made a "DHT sponge" biologic yet???
The conversation discusses the potential for developing a biologic "DHT sponge" to neutralize DHT in the bloodstream as a treatment for hair loss, suggesting it could be more targeted and have fewer side effects than current treatments like finasteride and dutasteride. Concerns include the complexity, cost, and potential side effects of such a treatment, as well as skepticism about its feasibility and market interest.
