Taking zinc and copper may offset copper depletion and potentially aid hair health when used with finasteride. The user is considering whether to use these supplements alongside finasteride or wait until switching to dutasteride.

User experienced reduced hair loss with 15mg RU in Serioxyl but had concerning chest pain. Others suggested consulting a doctor or lowering the dose.

The user has been using finasteride, minoxidil, retinoid, and occasional microneedling for hair loss with good results. They recently added stemoxydine, which improved their hair further, and suggest trying it, especially in the EU where it's easily available.

Alfatradiol is used by some for hair loss, often alongside treatments like finasteride, RU58841, and minoxidil, but its effectiveness is unclear. Some users report no significant improvement, while others note reduced sebum production but experience side effects like gallbladder pain.

The user is experiencing significant hair shedding and suspects it may be due to low serum ferritin levels rather than worsening androgenetic alopecia. They have resumed iron supplementation and are seeking additional solutions to address the shedding.

Topical pirfenidone is highlighted as an effective anti-inflammatory and anti-fibrotic treatment for hair loss, particularly in addressing perifollicular fibrosis, which may enhance the effectiveness of standard treatments like finasteride and minoxidil.

FCE 28260 (PNU 156765), an under-explored 5α-reductase inhibitor, showcases promising results in research by Giudici et al., outperforming well-known treatments like Finasteride in reducing the conversion of testosterone to DHT. Its superior efficacy, demonstrated through lower IC50 values in both natural and human recombinant enzyme studies, suggests it could offer more effective management of DHT-related conditions. Additionally, its lower molecular weight hints at better potential for topical application, potentially offering advantages in treating conditions such as androgenic alopecia. Despite its potential, it has not advanced in development, possibly due to financial limitations, leaving its therapeutic prospects and side effect profile largely unexplored.
