community Surprising dutasteride studies on low dose effect

132 upvotes 4 months ago

Low doses of dutasteride are as effective as higher doses for hair regrowth, with fewer side effects. Users find success taking it 2-3 times a week instead of daily.

community surprised with the progress so far

in Progress Pictures 203 upvotes 4 months ago

The user experienced significant hair growth and increased density after using 1.1mg finasteride for 4-5 weeks and switching from topical to oral minoxidil (3mg) for 3 weeks. They reported no shedding and were uncertain if the growth was due to the oral minoxidil or finasteride.

community Surprise Hair Loss Breakthrough: A Sugar Gel Sparks Robust Regrowth

129 upvotes 11 months ago

A sugar gel is claimed to spark hair regrowth, but users express skepticism, noting that minoxidil and finasteride remain the most effective treatments. Many users joke about frequent "breakthroughs" that work on rats but not humans, and some mention the potential of PP405 as a future treatment.

community Survived the 2nd shedding phase. 7mos progress.

42 upvotes 11 months ago

The conversation is about hair loss treatment progress using oral finasteride, topical minoxidil, and microneedling. Users discuss experiencing shedding phases and the importance of trusting the process for hair regrowth.

community Surprise Hair Loss Breakthrough: A Sugar Gel Triggers Robust Regrowth

445 upvotes 1 year ago

A sugar gel was claimed to trigger hair regrowth, but users reported no results and potential cancer risks. The discussion included comparisons to minoxidil and skepticism about the effectiveness of the sugar treatment.

learn Hair Transplant

Hair transplantation moves DHT-resistant follicles from a donor area (back and sides of the scalp) into thinning or bald areas. The transplanted hair is generally permanent, though surrounding native hair can keep thinning.
