5 / 1000+ resultscommunity Can testosterone alone cause hair loss even after nuking DHT?
Testosterone can still cause hair loss even when DHT is blocked by dutasteride, especially if hair follicles are sensitive. Topical treatments like RU58841 or pyrilutamide may help, but their long-term effectiveness is uncertain compared to dutasteride.

7 / 801 results- Could bicalutamide help trans women regrow hair lost to testosterone? No study has tested bicalutamide for hair regrowth in trans women.
