A 38-year-old female is experiencing hair loss despite having almost undetectable DHT levels after using dutasteride.

A 17-year-old is using oral dutasteride, finasteride, and topical minoxidil for hair loss, with plans to increase dutasteride and consider surgery. They report significant regrowth but are worried about side effects and the effects of blocking DHT at a young age.
The conversation discusses how to use fluridil/topilutamide with other hair loss treatments like liquid minoxidil and CB-03-01, considering fluridil's hydrophobic nature and potential degradation with water. The user questions the necessity of washing hair only once per week as suggested by the manufacturer.
A user discusses their extensive hair loss treatment regimen, which includes dutasteride, oral and topical minoxidil, RU58841, various supplements, and lifestyle changes. The conversation includes opinions on the effectiveness and necessity of such a comprehensive approach, with some users suggesting alternatives like microneedling and questioning the high dosage of dutasteride.
Dutasteride effectively stops hair loss but can cause side effects like sexual dysfunction, muscle mass changes, and testicle shrinkage. Adjusting the dosage may help manage these side effects, but long-term health effects remain a concern.
Minoxidil and finasteride are being considered for hair loss due to seborrheic dermatitis and male pattern baldness. The user is also using ketoconazole and zinc pyrithione shampoo.

The user shared their bloodwork results showing DHT at 17 ng/dl and testosterone at 287 ng/dl, with a slight Vitamin D deficiency. They are seeking opinions on these levels and have an upcoming dermatologist appointment.
Hair loss discussion includes potential HMI-115 treatment. Topical mucuna pruriens shows good results, blocking prolactin possibly more important than blocking DHT.

A 20-year-old male is frustrated with his dermatologist for refusing to prescribe DHT blockers like finasteride or dutasteride, instead pushing for a hair transplant despite ongoing hair thinning.

SCUBE3, a protein linked to hair growth in moles, was discovered over 25 years ago and is being developed by Amplifica for potential hair loss treatment. Concerns exist about SCUBE3's association with cancer, as it is a protein that promotes cell growth, which could potentially trigger cancer development if used for hair growth therapy.
The conversation discusses the lack of updates on GT20029 for hair loss treatment, with some users noting recent reports indicating ongoing data collection. There are mentions of other treatments like Pyrilutamide and Minoxidil.
A 25-year-old male has been using finasteride for 17 months and recently switched to dutasteride. His bloodwork shows increased luteinizing hormone levels, possibly due to increased testosterone, with no side effects and improved libido.
RU58841 hasn't stopped shedding for the user after three weeks, despite being stable on dutasteride for six years. Suggestions include continuing RU58841 for 4-6 months, considering minoxidil, and addressing stress and sleep issues.

The post and conversation are about HMI-115, a potential treatment for hair loss. The conclusion is that HMI-115 is not a 5ar-inhibitor and is instead a prolactin receptor inhibitor. Some users are skeptical about its effectiveness and believe that baldness will still be a problem in the future.
The conversation is about when the phase 3 results for pyrilutamide, a potential hair loss treatment, will be released. There was a letter about the study a month ago, but the actual results were not included.
