The user has been using oral finasteride for 15 months and oral minoxidil for 6 months, and developed alopecia areata, for which a dermatologist prescribed calcipotriol/betamethasone. The treatment is helping, but the user is experiencing another shedding phase and is concerned about the effects of the steroid cream and the cause of hair loss.

It also mentions AICAR, known as cardarine or GW, which is not suitable for long-term use due to cancer risks in animal studies and its similarity to metformin.

The conversation is about identifying the cause of a burning red scalp from a topical hair loss formula. Retinoic acid and ethyl alcohol are suspected irritants, with retinoic acid being considered for removal.

Oleic acid and microneedling are being explored for hair regrowth, but results are mixed. Addressing DHT and fibrosis is crucial, with treatments like finasteride, minoxidil, and scalp massage also discussed.

Tea tree oil shampoo resolved redness, itching, and increased hair thickness for the user, suggesting demodex mites as a possible cause. Nizoral was ineffective, but tea tree oil showed significant improvement over several months.

The conversation discusses a patent filed by Shiseido for cloning Dermal Papilla (DP) cells to treat hair loss. The method involves using viral vectors to maintain the cells' growth-inducing properties, differing from Replicel's approach with Dermal Sheath Cup (DSC) cells.

A user had a failed hair transplant with 2800 FUE grafts at a clinic in Turkey, where finasteride was used, and the procedure was poorly executed by technicians rather than the main surgeon. The user later sought repair from a more experienced doctor, highlighting issues with large clinics that handle multiple patients daily.

Hair regrowth treatments, including stem cell injections, are discussed, with skepticism about their effectiveness compared to Minoxidil and finasteride. Derma stamping is mentioned as effective when used with Minoxidil, finasteride, and dutasteride.

The conversation is about a hair loss product that claims to use stem cells and ingredients like Capixyl, Redensyl, and Baicapil, with the user asking if anyone has looked into it. No specific treatments were discussed.

The conversation discusses the lack of clinical studies on cysteine alone for hair loss, with the original poster already using medications like Minoxidil and finasteride. Suggestions include trying 2ddr as a growth stimulant, though concerns about side effects like gas are mentioned.

The user has been treating hair loss for 7 months using a combination of pyrilutamide, a topical mix of finasteride and minoxidil, microneedling, a topical mix of GHK-Cu and minoxidil, ketoconazole shampoo, fish collagen peptides, zinc, and vitamin D3. Another user suggests that continuous small improvements could lead to significant hair regrowth over time.

User shared 8-month hair loss treatment progress using topical fin/min, topical dut, mk677, RU, and microneedling. They experienced watery semen as a side effect but saw significant improvement in hair growth.

The user has been using dutasteride, minoxidil with tretinoin, and ketoconazole shampoo for hair loss but hasn't seen improvement in temple areas. Suggestions include trying microneedling with minoxidil or considering a hair transplant, though temple transplants can be challenging.

The conversation discusses using T3 (triiodothyronine) as a topical treatment for hair growth, with some users noting it showed promising results in studies but lacked follow-up. Users express interest in trying T3 due to its potential effectiveness compared to Minoxidil.

The conversation discusses using minoxidil and finasteride for hair loss, with concerns about absorption and considering adding tretinoin for better results. Microneedling is suggested as a method to improve absorption, with varying depths and frequencies recommended.

The user is dissatisfied with their hair transplant results from Asli Tarcan, citing poor donor area management and insufficient graft density. They advise against opting for cheaper procedures and express hope for future hair cloning solutions.

The conversation discusses using peptides BPC-157 and TB-500, combined with microneedling, to potentially enhance hair regrowth. The user plans to try BPC-157 due to its lower cost and reports of hair growth, despite limited human trials and concerns about side effects from other treatments like minoxidil and finasteride.

The conversation discusses the effectiveness of anti-androgens for hair loss, with a preference for topical treatments like RU58841 over oral options due to better scalp concentration and fewer side effects. Topical finasteride at 0.1% may provide some results, especially when combined with a topical androgen receptor antagonist like RU58841.

Two different experiences of using Pyrilutamide, a hair loss treatment, which caused headaches that took around a week to subside in both cases. Other users offered insight into their own experiences with the treatment or suggested alternate treatments such as RU58841 and Minoxidil.

The conversation discusses the use of pyrilutamide for hair loss, specifically its impact on shedding. The user is inquiring if others have experienced increased or decreased shedding after starting pyrilutamide.
