The conversation discusses using a multimodal approach to treat androgenic alopecia, including substances like gamma-linolenic acid, DHA, sulforaphane, melatonin, cetirizine, astaxanthin, fisetin, apigenin, curcumin, limonene, genistein, and berberine. Users also mention using ketoconazole, minoxidil, and low-level laser therapy (LLLT) as part of their hair loss treatment regimens.
community This, and the UCLA molecule(linked article in comments)…I have great hopes
Oleic acid and ethanol are being considered for hair regrowth, with some users planning to self-experiment. There is skepticism about their effectiveness, and ongoing use of treatments like finasteride and minoxidil is mentioned.
community Difference: GT20029 vs CosmeRNA
GT20029 and CosmeRNA are both potential hair loss treatments; GT20029 breaks down the androgen receptor, while CosmeRNA prevents its production. Continuous use is needed, but less frequently than current treatments like Minoxidil and Finasteride.
community Any good experiences with Alfatradiol ?
Alfatradiol is discussed as a weak 5ARI and estrogen, not as effective as minoxidil, RU58841, or CB-03-01, but a safe alternative for those who can't use finasteride. Users express frustration over the lack of strong FDA-approved topical antiandrogens for hair loss.
community [Nov 2019] The peptide AC 2 isolated from Bacillus-treated Trapa japonica fruit extract rescues DHT (dihydrotestosterone)-treated human dermal papilla cells and mediates mTORC1 signaling for autophagy and apoptosis suppression
A peptide from Japanese water chestnut fruit may help with hair loss by suppressing DHT's effect on hair follicle cell death, potentially serving as a finasteride alternative. The treatment's effectiveness and safety in humans remain uncertain.
community Another molecular pathway to promote scarless healing and regenerate hair follicles
Carnosic acid in rosemary extract may enhance skin repair and promote hair follicle regeneration. It could be used alone or with verteporfin for scarless healing after dermal wounding.
community Anyone hear of Ursolic Acid?
Ursolic acid, found in apple peels, lemongrass, rosemary, and lavender, may have anti-androgen effects similar to finasteride. It might be beneficial for hair health when used with other treatments like Minoxidil, Finasteride, and RU58841.
community What are some topical anti androgens(not dht).
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 Has there been any update or progress on the 3-alpha hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase hypothesis?
community Creating Your Own Topicals: A Guide
Creating a carrier solution for topical hair loss treatments using ethanol, propylene glycol or glycerin, and instructions on creating topical finasteride. Different recipes are provided with varying ratios of alcohol to humectant.
community 2-deoxy-D-ribose (2dDR), a sugar molecule, was found to be 80%-90% as effective as minoxidil in promoting hair growth and neovascularization in androgenic alopecia models, showing promise for alopecia treatment.
2-deoxy-D-ribose, a sugar molecule, is found to be 80%-90% as effective as Minoxidil in promoting hair growth, showing potential for alopecia treatment. Concerns include high cost, lack of human studies, and possible side effects like diarrhea and nausea.
community Androgen degraders for hair loss
The conversation discusses androgen receptor degraders for hair loss, highlighting their potential advantages over traditional AR blockers like RU58841 and pyrilutamide. Concerns about the safety and cost of these treatments are also mentioned.
community Anyone have an opinion on this: Promotion of Hair Growth by Rosmarinus officinalis Leaf Extract. They aimed to find out if Rosemary Oil is able to inhibit activity of 5α-Reductase.
Rosemary Oil may inhibit the activity of 5α-Reductase, potentially promoting hair growth. Specific treatments discussed include Minoxidil, Finasteride, and RU58841.
community Alpha plus from Anagenica - 25%CB???
A user ordered Alpha Plus from Anagenica, expecting it to contain specific percentages of Fin, Estradiol, Minoxidil, and CB0301. However, the received product's label showed different percentages, including a surprising 25% CB, leading the user to question its safety and accuracy.
community Does anyone homebrew their own minox/ru58841
A bodybuilder discusses homebrewing Minoxidil and RU58841 using propylene glycol or MCT. They inquire about the feasibility and potential risks of these methods.
community Kintors interim report from 9-2-24 for everyone whos interested
Kintor plans to release pyrilutamide foam and a plant-based Koshine by year-end, with GT20029 progressing in their pipeline. Users are pleased about the absence of propylene glycol (PG) in the new products.
community Other sulfurtransferase activity upregulator other than Tretinoin?
The user does not respond well to minoxidil and is seeking an alternative to Tretinoin to upregulate sulfurtransferase activity for hair loss treatment. No specific alternative treatments were mentioned.
community Rhamnose-Mediated Modulation of Hair Follicle Growth: Insights from Chemical Genomics
Rhamnose may promote hair growth and pigmentation, suggesting it as a potential hair loss treatment. The conversation discusses its potential alongside known treatments like Minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841.
community Minxodil collegen synthesis decrease?
Minoxidil may age skin by slowing collagen synthesis, but using collagen peptides and a basic skincare routine might counteract this. Foam minoxidil could reduce systemic absorption and avoid alcohol-related side effects.
community Just ordered RU powder, a scale, beaker, ethanol and PG. This will be my final attempt.
The user is trying RU58841, oral minoxidil, and dermarolling to combat hair loss caused by increased scalp testosterone after using finasteride and dutasteride. They plan to document their results.
community The theory that explains everything. Please help me make this big!
The post and conversation are about the role of the enzyme 3alpha-hydroxysteroid reductase in hair loss and the potential of compounds like procyanidin B2 and sulforaphane to boost its activity for hair regrowth. Further research is needed to develop effective treatments based on this theory.
community Biotin/saw palmetto/pumpkin seed supplements and body fat
community Does melatonin dissolve in isopropyl alcohol
The conversation discusses making a topical melatonin solution for hair loss treatment, questioning if isopropyl alcohol can dissolve melatonin. Melatonin is soluble in lipids and alcohol, but it's unstable and should be mixed fresh regularly; it may help hair growth by affecting certain cellular signaling pathways and has anti-androgenic effects.
