community Dht kills hair, but no one says why?
DHT affects hair follicles, contributing to hair loss, but the exact mechanism is unclear. Treatments like finasteride and minoxidil are used to manage hair loss, though they may have side effects and varying effectiveness.
community So what is the actual efficacy of topical minoxidil?
Minoxidil can stimulate hair growth but does not prevent long-term hair loss, while finasteride or dutasteride is necessary to address DHT and maintain hair. Family hair history may not predict individual outcomes, and combining treatments like microneedling can enhance results.
community i need your advice please tell
The user is experiencing stage 2 hair loss and thinning, noticing more scalp visibility with short hair. They are considering diet, yoga, scalp massage, supplements, and a serum recommended by their doctor, and questioning if it's safe to stop using the serum and whether to get a blood test since hair loss isn't a family trait.
community Don't stop taking minoxidil no matter what
The conversation is about hair loss treatments, specifically minoxidil, finasteride, and dutasteride. The main advice is to start with finasteride and never stop minoxidil once started, as stopping can lead to significant hair loss.
