5 / 90 resultscommunity I built a free Al-powered hair transplant simulator for the community, would love your feedback!
A user created a free AI-powered hair transplant simulator to help visualize post-transplant results, seeking feedback and offering it as a tool for clinics. Users discussed its usefulness, limitations, and the requirement for email and phone verification to prevent abuse.
community Being Safe on Oral Minoxidil: tl;dr on the literature.
Oral minoxidil is effective for hair loss but can cause cardiovascular side effects, such as pericardial effusion, especially in those with genetic predispositions. Starting with low doses and monitoring cardiovascular health are advised to reduce risks.
community New and Interesting HairLoss Studies/Papers/Reviews
Hair loss treatments discussed include Dutasteride with Ketoconazole, tissue engineering strategies, and androgenetic alopecia therapies. Massage doubles follicular retention, improving treatment effectiveness.
community Proposed new pathogenesis model for androgenetic alopecia (AGA)
The conversation discusses a new model for understanding androgenetic alopecia (AGA), linking it to dietary and lifestyle factors similar to PCOS, and highlighting the role of DHT, vascular damage, and inflammation. Treatments mentioned include Minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841.
community Dutasteride takes 1-3 months to work in the scalp. Not weeks. Be careful.
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.
