The conversation discusses hair loss treatments, including finasteride, minoxidil, estradiol, and spironolactone, with a focus on their effects on hair regrowth and gender transition. The original poster shares their personal experience with these treatments, emphasizing that estradiol and spironolactone should not be used by those who want to maintain a masculine appearance.
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.
Hair loss discussion includes treatments Minoxidil, Finasteride, and RU58841. HMI 115 shows anecdotal success in Phase I trial, users seek group buy for research chemical.
A 52-year-old male with Multiple Sclerosis is considering using Finasteride and Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT) for hair loss but is advised to lose weight first to avoid side effects. He is currently focusing on diet, weight loss, and using Rogaine and microneedling for hair treatment.
High cost of studying 3α-Hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase in hair loss led to suggestions of crowdfunding for research. Users discussed using Procyanidin B2/melatonin topical treatment and tracking funds with blockchain.
The conversation discusses maintaining hair regrowth using minoxidil and finasteride and whether using gt20029, which degrades androgen receptors, would affect this. Fluridil, a similar treatment, can disable over 90% of active androgen receptors.
The conversation discusses hair regrowth using oral minoxidil and RU58841, with visible baby hairs appearing after two months. One user questions the choice of RU58841 over finasteride.
TDM-105795 is a potential hair growth stimulant that works differently from minoxidil and could be used alongside it for enhanced growth. It completed phase 2 trials in 2024, with a medium to high chance of release in 2026, but lacks recent updates or phase 3 trial information.
