The user experienced a sudden decrease in hair density after starting alfatradiol while already using finasteride. Another user mentioned that initial shedding can occur with hair loss treatments, but it may not last long.
The conversation is about finding a source for Alfatradiol 0.1% as most available products are 0.025%. A suggestion was made to use four times the dosage of the 0.025% product.
Alfatradiol is discussed as a hair loss treatment with minimal side effects, but its effectiveness is debated, and it's not widely known or available outside Germany. Some users report side effects like gyno and ball ache, while others find it effective in stopping shedding and itching.
Alfatradiol helps reduce hair shedding and itching, and is effective for mild hair loss. Users combine it with treatments like fluridil, minoxidil, and sometimes consider finasteride.
Alfatradiol is considered safe but less effective than finasteride for hair loss. One user reported subtle regrowth using alfatradiol with finasteride and minoxidil, while another found alfatradiol ineffective.
