5 / 1000+ resultscommunity How can I get fin in Canada (GP and Derm turned me down) + questions on minoxidil and PRP
Treatments for hair loss with a focus on finasteride, minoxidil, and platelet-rich plasma (PRP). The user discussed their family history of balding, asked questions about the effectiveness of different treatments, and was discouraged from taking finasteride by medical professionals.
community Compressed part of research of theory of androgenic/anabolitic balance. AGA h-responders analytic. Theory of physio-metabolitic method of anti AGA treatment
The treatment for androgenetic alopecia involves using finasteride and minoxidil with intense exercise and cold exposure to boost metabolism and reduce androgenic effects, potentially leading to hair regrowth. This approach may activate biological pathways for improved hair and overall health.
community How is dht not beneficial to you?
DHT is important for sexual function and mood, but finasteride and dutasteride can reduce DHT, causing side effects like reduced libido and erectile dysfunction. These treatments are effective for hair loss, but their impact on DHT leads to debate.
community Why HMI115 should work if it doesn’t affect dht?
Hair growth can be induced without stopping DHT, as seen with Minoxidil. HMI115 may work by promoting follicle growth, not targeting the root cause of hair loss (DHT).
community I have hairy legs and arms, and the hair grows 2+ inches long- Can I transplant it all to my head?
The conversation discusses the possibility of transplanting leg and arm hair to the scalp for hair loss treatment. Minoxidil is mentioned as a potential aid for hair growth, but concerns about the effectiveness and appearance of body hair on the head are raised.
