      in Research/Science  96 upvotes 11 months ago
      Topical dutasteride is more effective than oral finasteride for male pattern hair loss, with fewer side effects. Some prefer oral treatments for convenience, while others use topical solutions like minoxidil and dutasteride, sometimes with microneedling, for better results.

      community Frequency/strength of topical minoxidil application

       13 upvotes 2 years ago
      The conversation discusses the effectiveness of Minoxidil (Min) for hair loss treatment. It concludes that applying a 5% solution once daily is sufficient, and applying it twice daily doesn't provide much more benefit.

      community Surprisingly thorough study on He-Shou-Wu/Fo Ti

       13 upvotes 3 years ago
      He Shou Wu (Fo Ti) extract was found to prolong the hair growth phase, inhibit 5-alpha-reductase (like finasteride), reduce androgen receptors, and increase growth factors, potentially outperforming minoxidil in recovering hair follicle size after DHT exposure. Two compounds, emodin and TSG, are identified as responsible for these effects and warrant further investigation.
