learn Bicalutamide

Could bicalutamide help trans women regrow hair lost to testosterone? No study has tested bicalutamide for hair regrowth in trans women. In cisgender women the only randomized trial found it added nothing to minoxidil, and it is an off-label prescription drug that requires liver monitoring.

learn Alfatradiol

Does Alfatradiol work the same for women, men, and trans people? Almost all controlled data on topical alfatradiol comes from cisgender women, where it slowed hair loss rather than regrowing hair and was outperformed by minoxidil. No published controlled trial covers cisgender men, and none covers trans people at all — so the honest answer is that the difference has not been measured.

When can I cut or style my hair after a hair transplant? You can cut or style your hair about 1 month after a hair transplant.
Can a hair transplant be done without shaving? Yes, hair transplants can be done without shaving, but eligibility varies.
Do hair transplants look natural? When done correctly, hair transplants can look completely natural and undetectable.
