The conversation discusses Melatonin's potential benefits for AGA and a product called "Asatex" by ASATONA AG. The company was uncooperative when contacted for purchase inquiries.
Hair loss can be influenced by chronic low-level allergies, and treatments like fexofenadine or topical cetirizine may help with regrowth. The user avoids finasteride, dutasteride, and minoxidil, and has tried Regenera Activa and PRF sessions.
Low oxytocin levels in hair are linked to reduced empathy and may affect hair growth. Cinnamic acid can promote hair growth by activating oxytocin receptors.
The conversation discusses a new model for understanding androgenetic alopecia (AGA), linking it to dietary and lifestyle factors similar to PCOS, and highlighting the role of DHT, vascular damage, and inflammation. Treatments mentioned include Minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841.
A user is experiencing hair thinning and is using a peptide with oleanic acid as a DHT blocker, along with minoxidil, while waiting for topical finasteride. They plan to use a combination of minoxidil, finasteride, dermastamp, ketoconazole, and scalp massages, but are advised to stick to proven treatments like finasteride and minoxidil.
Corticosterone inhibits GAS6, affecting hair follicle stem-cell activity, with potential implications for stress-related hair loss. Ashwagandha and Vitamin K are suggested for reducing cortisol, but their effectiveness is debated.
Ell-Cranell and Eucapil are discussed as hair loss treatments, with Ell-Cranell being a weak estrogen and DHT inhibitor that may reduce hair loss without systemic side effects. Alfatradiol is the active ingredient in these products.
The post discusses the potential of upregulating aromatase to treat hair loss, suggesting that increasing CCL2 levels through Vitamin D or microneedling might help. The user questions why microneedling doesn't work for everyone, especially those with advanced hair loss.
GHK-Cu injections led to unexpected temple hair growth for someone who had been using minoxidil and finasteride for over a decade. The user plans to continue using GHK-Cu and experiment with a DIY AHK-Cu serum.
Minoxidil may inhibit androgen receptors and affect hormonal pathways, potentially explaining its effectiveness in treating androgenetic alopecia (AGA). Users discuss its varying effectiveness on scalp versus facial hair and note fewer side effects with topical use compared to oral.
Pyrilutamide is a selective AR antagonist with a high binding affinity, making it effective in competing with DHT for androgen receptors. The 1% concentration is more effective than the 0.5%, but the latter may suffice for mild hair loss; the drug is considered a good option for those avoiding 5AR blockers due to side effects.
Clascoterone cream can be used on the scalp, but it may not be effective due to its dosage. AR antagonists like clascoterone are generally less effective than 5AR inhibitors for hair loss.
KX-826 (Pyrilutamide) being tested in the US for hair loss treatment and that they have found enough people to participate in phase II clinical trials. Other treatments discussed are Minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841.
Amplifica is testing a compound called AMP-303 for hair loss, but it's not Scube3 or osteopontin. The timing for the results from the clinical trial is unknown.
The user started finasteride two weeks ago and has been using minoxidil for over a month, while also supplementing with Acetyl L-Carnitine. They are curious if others have experienced hair shedding or growth with Acetyl L-Carnitine, especially when used with finasteride and minoxidil.
The user is exploring hair loss treatments and is interested in procyanidin B2 and annurca apples but has concerns about the effectiveness and availability of supplements. They cannot use Dutasteride or Finasteride and are considering Minoxidil with microneedling.
PP405 may promote short-term hair growth by pushing follicles into the growth phase, but concerns exist about long-term effects due to lack of rest phases. Users discuss various treatments like finasteride, minoxidil, spironolactone, alfatradiol, and investigational drugs like KX-826 and GT20029 for hair maintenance and regrowth.
Pyrilitamide (KX-826) did not show significant improvement in hair count compared to placebo after 6 months. It's unclear if it can maintain hair at baseline.
The conversation discusses Procapil, a treatment for hair loss containing Apigenin and Oleanolic acid. Users are sharing their experiences and asking if anyone has tried it.
Treatments for hair loss, such as using AR receptor blockers and degraders, to see if follicles can regenerate in the long term. The conversation also discusses how hair transplants could be a potential solution.
Procyanidin B2, a compound derived from Annurca apples, as a potential treatment for pattern hair loss. Several clinical studies were mentioned, which found that procyanidin B2 could increase hair growth, density, and keratin content. Other treatments such as Minoxidil, Finasteride, and RU58841 were not discussed.
Hair loss treatments discussed include microneedling, minoxidil, tretinoin, finasteride, dutasteride, pumpkin seeds, saw palmetto, and scalp massage. The consensus is that finasteride or dutasteride is necessary for significant regrowth, while other methods may only slow hair loss.
An arthritis drug, baricitinib, is discussed as a potential treatment for autoimmune alopecia, not androgenetic alopecia. Ritlecitinib is also mentioned as a possible treatment for scarring alopecia.
Adenosine is discussed as a potential treatment for hair loss, with mentions of its presence in certain shampoos and Minoxidilmax products. Users express interest in topical adenosine but are cautious about sourcing it from places like Amazon or Alibaba.
A healthy scalp barrier is crucial for hair growth, and ceramides may play a key role in maintaining it. The conversation suggests that focusing on scalp health, alongside treatments like Minoxidil, Finasteride, and RU58841, could improve hair follicle health.
A user is joining a clinical trial for Clascoterone, a drug approved for acne but being tested for hair loss. They previously tried finasteride with limited success and plan to share updates on their experience with the new treatment.
The conversation is about using adenosine, finasteride, and minoxidil for hair loss treatment. The user ordered a 0.75% adenosine solution and is currently using finasteride 1mg and minoxidil 5%.
A user was prescribed Alpicort E, which contains Estradiol Benzoate, Prednisone, and Salicylic Acid, for hair loss and is seeking others' experiences due to concerns about potential side effects.
PP405 and GT20029 are new hair loss treatments with different mechanisms from traditional options like Minoxidil and Finasteride. PP405 targets hair follicle stem cells to reactivate growth, while GT20029 works as an androgen receptor deleter, both requiring ongoing use for effectiveness.
