Scientists discovered a sugar gel, 2dDR-SA, that increased hair growth in mice. Users discussed its potential, comparing it to other treatments like Minoxidil and finasteride.
The post discusses a theory that hair regrowth after transplant is due to the angiogenesis process (new bloodvessels forming), not because the transplanted hair is unaffected by DHT. The responses highlight the established belief in 'donor dominance' (the importance of the hair's origin in transplantation) and skepticism about the new theory.
2-deoxy-d-ribose hair serum is now available in Australia, potentially aiding hair loss by promoting new bloodvessel growth. Users are discussing its potential effectiveness compared to other treatments like Minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841.
A naturally occurring sugar, 2-deoxy-D-ribose, may promote hair growth by forming new bloodvessels. There is skepticism about its effectiveness and concerns about potential side effects, with some users comparing it to existing treatments like Minoxidil and finasteride.
The conversation is about whether topical finasteride and minoxidil need to be applied directly to the affected areas of the scalp or if they can be spread through bloodvessels. It also asks how long topical finasteride remains on a pillow.
