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 The Real Reason For Hair Loss?
Hair loss is linked to scalp fibrosis and tension, which result from chronic mechanical stress and androgenic signaling. Treatments include blocking androgens with finasteride, promoting hair growth with topical minoxidil, and improving scalp mobility through exercises.
community I am starting to believe that bloodflow is the reason for hair loss...
Hair loss may be linked to blood flow issues, but DHT is considered the main cause. Treatments used include finasteride, RU58841, minoxidil, vitamin D3, microneedling, and dutasteride, but hair loss persists.
community My Theory Of Androgenic Alopecia
Hair loss is linked to cellular physiology and the IGF-1 to TGF-B1 ratio, not just androgen sensitivity. The theory lacks evidence, while finasteride and minoxidil are effective treatments.
community 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.
