Treating hair loss with various remedies, such as Cetirizine and the Big3 complex (minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841), which have properties like adipogenic, anti-fibrotic and anti-inflammatory. References to research studies are also included.
A 27-year-old man shared his hormonal panel results after one year of taking finasteride 1mg/day for hair loss, showing his DHT levels nearly doubled. He reported stabilized hair loss with mild side effects that resolved, and he is considering a hair transplant but is concerned about the increased DHT levels and potential treatment options.
Quercetin and houttuynia cordata extract may stimulate hair growth by enhancing cellular energy metabolism and increasing growth factor secretion. Quercetin has low oral bioavailability, and its natural tint might stain the scalp if used topically.
Efforts to find a Canadian dermatologist in the US to prescribe H&W's topical finasteride for hair loss. The user is willing to fund a crowd-share effort to identify prospects.
DHT promotes beard growth but causes scalp hair loss due to inflammation and fibrosis. Treatments like finasteride and minoxidil help with hormonal signals and blood flow but don't address underlying inflammation.
The conversation discusses hair loss linked to BDNF-increasing nootropics like Semax and Lions Mane. Suggested topical treatments include capsaicin, beta-glucan, and ginseng to counteract TGF-B activation.
A user shared their experience with microneedling and minoxidil for hair loss, avoiding finasteride due to concerns about systemic hormone effects. They reported slight hair regrowth after one month and plan to continue the regimen, noting improvements in skin sensitivity and managing dandruff with anti-dandruff shampoo.
Alfatradiol (0.025%) is an effective and safe treatment for androgenetic alopecia in both men and women, increasing anagen hair rates with minimal side effects. Users discuss its cost-effectiveness and ease of use compared to other treatments like finasteride and RU58841, with some combining it with stemoxydine and Minoxidil.
Pyrilutamide is a selective AR antagonist with a high binding affinity, making it effective in competing with DHT for androgen receptors. 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.
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 androgen receptor antagonist.
Increasing IGF-1 may help hair growth, but it could also increase hair loss in people with high testosterone. Treatments discussed include l-arginine, glutamine, vanadium, Deer Antler Velvet, ATP, Cocarboxylase, l-carnitine, and Mk677.
The user's hair regrowth plan includes topical treatments (RU58841, azelaic acid, ketoconazole), oral supplements (Gia Herbs, castor oil), microneedling, PTD-DBM peptide with valproic acid, red light therapy, inversion table with scalp massage, and platelet-rich fibrin injections. Commenters suggest that finasteride and minoxidil are essential treatments for male pattern hair loss, which are missing from the plan.
The post is about a user starting a hair loss treatment using finasteride, micro needling, and nizoral. The conversation includes supportive replies from other users.

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.
Hair follicle regenerative therapy is being developed, with clinical trials planned in Japan, potentially allowing for hair cloning and eliminating the need for treatments like finasteride. If successful, the treatment could be available in Japan by 2025, but widespread access and affordability may take longer.
