research Novel delivery strategy: finasteride-loaded solid lipid nanoparticles for improved androgenetic alopecia therapy
The study investigates a novel delivery method for finasteride using solid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs) to enhance androgenetic alopecia therapy. The formulation NP7 showed the highest skin retention and significant hair growth in a C57BL/6 mouse model without adverse skin reactions. NP7 demonstrated a steady drug release rate and high drug loading, with increased lipid and NTC concentrations improving entrapment efficiency. Stability tests confirmed the robustness of NP7, which also showed higher finasteride retention in the skin compared to the pure drug. The study suggests that this delivery strategy could improve hair growth therapy, though further research is needed to evaluate long-term efficacy and safety in humans.

The conversation discusses the impact of finasteride on sexual function, with many users reporting reduced libido and weaker erections despite continuing the treatment to prevent hair loss. Some users suggest checking hormone levels or switching to different dosages or treatments like dutasteride, while others share mixed experiences regarding the severity of side effects.
community Diffuse thinning fucking sucks
The conversation discusses various treatments for hair loss, including finasteride, minoxidil, dutasteride, microneedling, and checking for nutrient deficiencies. Some users suggest adding hydrocortisone butyrate, low-dose progesterone, or tretinoin to treatment regimens, while others recommend cosmetic solutions like Toppik hair fibers or shaving the head.
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.
