Dutasteride takes 1-3 months to affect scalp DHT levels, not just a week. The prostate absorbs Dutasteride faster than the scalp due to different vascular networks and enzyme densities.
community Study: There is 70x Higher Unconjugated DHT in Feces Compared To Blood Levels in Young Adults - Gut Microbiota Manages DHT Recycling and Metabolism
Gut microbiota significantly influences androgen metabolism, impacting hair loss treatments like finasteride. Probiotics, dietary changes, and fecal microbiota transplants may help manage DHT levels and improve hair health.
community Hair loss research focused on chemistry for decades because we misunderstood the mechanics of growth.
Hair growth relies on mechanical forces, not just chemicals, with tissue acting like a motor. Minoxidil and finasteride help, but maintaining tissue elasticity and addressing mechanical issues are essential.
community Why is human evolution like this 😂
Why androgenic alopecia affects the scalp rather than other body parts, potential explanations for this phenomenon, treatments available to combat hair loss, and the implications of male attractiveness in modern society.
community Got a microscope camera. Here’s the difference between healthy and miniaturized hair
A user who shared progress pictures of their scalp using a microscope camera, demonstrating the difference between healthy and miniaturized hair. Various explanations for the cause of this were discussed, such as DHT build-up in scalp sebum causing an autoimmune response leading to inflammation and eventual hair loss, with some suggesting a do-it-yourself treatment involving adding ascorbic acid powder to shampoo.
