Is 2-deoxy-D-ribose (2dDR) good for human hair? Research/Science 8/25/2024
Topical 2-deoxy-D-ribose (2dDR) regrows hair in mice almost as well as 2% Minoxidil. However, 2dDR may contribute to oxidative stress and hair loss due to the formation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs).

community two months on 2-deoxy-d-ribose (2ddr)
The conversation discusses hair regrowth using 2-deoxy-d-ribose (2DDR) combined with minoxidil, with some users noting new hair growth. The original poster has been using minoxidil for 12 years and is considering combining 2DDR with finasteride, despite past side effects.
community For everyone buying 2-deoxy-d-ribose (2ddr)
The conversation discusses using 2-deoxy-d-ribose (2DDR) for hair regrowth, with users sharing mixed experiences and side effects like hair loss in new areas and increased anxiety. The original poster plans to continue testing and comparing it to minoxidil, noting potential instability in 2DDR formulations.
community Using a 2-deoxy-d-ribose gel. My experience 2 weeks in.
The user switched from minoxidil to a homemade 2-deoxy-d-ribose gel and noticed no hair fall after two weeks, despite stopping minoxidil. The gel includes water, 2-deoxy-d-ribose, vegetable glycerine, 2-phenoxyethanol, sodium alginate, and rosemary oil, and the user reports healthier-feeling hair.
community It seems 2-deoxy-d-ribose is now commercially available in Australia , what do we think?
2-deoxy-d-ribose hair serum is now available in Australia, potentially aiding hair loss by promoting new blood vessel growth. Users are discussing its potential effectiveness compared to other treatments like Minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841.
