RU58841 worsened hair condition, causing thinning and unusual patterns. The user stopped using it two months ago but hasn't seen recovery, and there's speculation about androgenreceptor upregulation.
Pyrilutamide is a selective AR antagonist with a high binding affinity, making it effective in competing with DHT for androgenreceptors. 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.
Exploring hair loss treatments beyond DHT, including Minoxidil, pyruvate, Gt20029 targeting androgenreceptors, and vasodilators. Other options like Kx826, adenosine signaling, growth factor topicals, and microneedling are also discussed.
A user is experiencing continued hair loss despite using 0.5mg dutasteride and 2.5mg minoxidil, and is seeking advice on why the treatments aren't working and how to address potential androgenreceptor sensitivity. Replies suggest getting tested and considering scalp micropigmentation (SMP).
The conversation discusses doubts about the effectiveness of topical finasteride for hair loss, suggesting that DHT could be produced elsewhere in the body and affect the scalp. It proposes that androgenreceptor antagonists like spironolactone and clascoterone might be more effective as they could prevent this potential bypass mechanism.
Pyrilutamide is believed to be more effective than RU58841 and 1 mg finasteride in treating hair loss, with no systemic hormonal effects and the potential to block more than 31% of scalp DHT. It may also antagonize scalp testosterone due to its action as an androgenreceptor antagonist.
Fluridil, also known as Topilutamide or Eucapil, is discussed as a treatment for hair loss. It is noted as an androgenreceptor antagonist, not a vasodilator.
Kintor's GT20029, a treatment for hair loss, has completed Phase 1 successfully, showing promise as an androgenreceptor degrader that could potentially regrow hair. It is considered more effective than Pyrilutamide, with infrequent dosing and minimal systemic absorption.
The conversation discusses how Caucasian men are more likely to experience hair loss due to genetic predisposition, with factors like the androgenreceptor on the X chromosome playing a significant role. The user also expresses confusion about the evolutionary reasons for hair loss, especially in colder climates where it would seem beneficial to retain hair for warmth.
The conversation discusses the potential of a new hair loss treatment, GT20029, which may prevent hair loss by destroying androgenreceptors on the scalp. Users express hope for the treatment's success and speculate on its usage routine, effectiveness, and possible side effects.
Pyrilutamide, a potential hair loss treatment that is currently in development and may be available soon; an androgenreceptor degrader which is also being developed as a potential treatment for hair loss; and the comparison between Pyrilutamide, finasteride, minoxidil, and RU58841.
Experimenting with trestolone as a treatment for hair loss in an attempt to avoid DHT-related treatments such as finasteride and dutasteride, and discussing the potential effects of its receptor selectivity on the androgenreceptors in the scalp.
Pyrilutamide, a nonsteroidal antiandrogen drug under development for the potential treatment of androgenic alopecia. The conversation discusses its binding affinity to the androgenreceptor and the timeline for possible availability after trials are completed in the United States and China.
KX-826 is a potential hair loss treatment, with users discussing its effectiveness compared to finasteride and concerns about its trial results. Some users express skepticism about new treatments, while others discuss the potential of androgenreceptor degraders and the need to manage drug resistance.
Hair loss treatments discussed include Minoxidil, Finasteride, RU58841, and Nizoral shampoo. Nizoral's effectiveness is debated, with some suggesting it works as a weak antagonist for androgenreceptors, while others attribute its benefits to anti-fungal and anti-inflammatory properties.
The conversation discusses the removal of Breezula phase II 12-month results by Cassiopea and the search for the original data. Concerns were raised about potential negative long-term effects on hair growth, such as androgenreceptor upregulation.
The conversation discusses positive initial trial results for GT20029, a topical compound for hair loss that degrades androgenreceptors, potentially requiring only weekly application. Participants express hope for this treatment to be more effective and convenient than current options like Minoxidil, Finasteride, and RU58841.
Breezula shows promise in stabilizing hair loss and potentially promoting regrowth at the one-year mark, offering hope for those who can't tolerate 5AR inhibitors. Its local targeting of androgenreceptors could be a significant advancement if it avoids systemic side effects.
The conversation discusses the potential of a new hair loss treatment, GT20029, which targets androgenreceptors in the scalp and is in phase 1 trials in China. Users express hope that this treatment will be more effective than current options like Minoxidil and Finasteride.
The user is seeking advice on improving their hair loss treatment regimen, considering changes to their topical solution, and is curious about others' daily routines and recommendations for medications and supplements. They are contemplating switching Tretinoin for Tazarotene, Latanoprost for Bimatoprost, and possibly adding Alfatradiol, Topical Melatonin, or a topical androgenreceptor antagonist.
The conversation discusses a last-resort hair loss treatment combining topical finasteride, minoxidil, melatonin, and progesterone, with claims that topical finasteride can inhibit up to 52% of scalp DHT. One reply clarifies that progesterone is not an anti-androgen but has anti-androgenic properties because it competes with androgens for receptors.
A 23-year-old has been using finasteride, dutasteride, and spironolactone to combat hair loss and hormonal acne, with mixed results and concerns about side effects. The user is experimenting with spironolactone despite its potential risks, hoping for skin and body hair improvements.
The conversation lists hair loss treatments including finasteride, dutasteride, RU58841, pyrilutamide, breezula, and fluridil, and suggests ketoconazole as another option. Some users warn against using certain treatments like cyproterone acetate, bicalutamide, and spironolactone due to their strong anti-androgen effects and potential impact on masculinity.
User asks about topical spironolactone experience. Two studies show it as promising anti-androgen treatment, with 5% cream available on Minoxidilmax website.
User used Finasteride, Dutasteride, and Minoxidil for one year to treat hair loss. They discussed possibly trying RU58841 or pyrilutamide in the future.
Hair loss treatments discussed include Minoxidil, Finasteride, RU58841, Alfatradiol, and Eucapil. Topical treatments must penetrate skin and may go systemic, with effectiveness varying.
Hair loss recovery using estrogen and anti-androgen treatment for 18 months showed significant improvement. However, results vary and alternative treatments like RU58841 and Dutasteride may work without systemic feminization.
The user tried Minoxidil without success, and Finasteride worked but caused sexual side effects even at a very low dose. They are seeking alternative treatments for hair loss as they cannot tolerate anti-androgens and are also in therapy for mental health.
