Creatine may counteract minoxidil's hair growth effects by closing potassium ATP channels, potentially leading to hair loss in predisposed individuals. Despite anecdotal reports, there is no conclusive evidence linking creatine to hair loss.
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.
AMP-303 and AMP-601 are new hair loss treatments targeting dermal papilla cells, with AMP-303 showing early efficacy in transitioning vellus hairs to terminal hairs after one injection. Further clinical trials are planned, and these treatments are seen as promising due to their biologic approach and less frequent application compared to daily treatments.
Comparing the effectiveness of RU58841, Pyrilutamide and CB-03-01 as treatments for hair loss, with people discussing different aspects such as binding affinity, time of inhibition, safety data and cost.
New hair loss treatments like GT20029, Clascoterone, and PP405 are being discussed, with concerns about how to apply multiple topicals alongside existing treatments like minoxidil and finasteride. Suggestions include creating a routine, mixing treatments, or minimizing redundancy in treatment stacks.
The study on creatine monohydrate's effect on hair loss was withdrawn due to lack of support. Users discussed concerns about creatine potentially accelerating hair loss, especially for those using finasteride.
PTD-DBM is being explored for hair regrowth by targeting CXXC5, with clinical trials expected after pre-clinical studies. Users express anticipation and skepticism about its effectiveness.
The conversation discusses the safety and use of ketoconazole shampoo for hair loss, with mentions of zinc pyrithione and selenium sulfide. Users debate the safety of these ingredients, particularly zinc pyrithione, and share opinions on regulatory differences between Europe and the US.
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. The user also uses calcipotriol, MCT oil, ciclopirox shampoo, and benzoyl peroxide shampoo as part of their regimen.
The conversation discusses the differences between PG/Ethanol and KB solutions for RU58841 application, focusing on potential scalp irritation. KB solution is suggested for those allergic to PG, though both contain ethanol which can dry the scalp.
Clascoterone showed promising initial results for hair regrowth but failed to replicate them, leading to disappointment. Users discuss combining it with minoxidil and other treatments, noting its current availability only in lower concentrations.
Adding non-prescription topicals like alfatradiol and Zix to a standard fin/min/niz regimen may help with scalp inflammation and shedding, but their long-term effectiveness varies. Zix is recommended for reducing scalp inflammation and enhancing the effectiveness of other treatments.
The conversation is about using Ketoconazole shampoo for hair loss, with users discussing leaving it on the scalp for longer periods. Some users report benefits for dandruff, but there's uncertainty about its effectiveness for androgenetic alopecia (AGA).
A new stem cell method for culturing hair follicles is being developed as an alternative to Minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841. There are concerns about its cost and accessibility despite plans for commercialization.
A new alcohol-free, propylene glycol-free topical finasteride foam is available for prescription in Canada and the USA, offering a cleaner alternative for hair loss treatment. The product also offers a combination of 0.1% finasteride with 5% minoxidil and aims to be affordable and less irritating for sensitive scalps.
Experimenting with the effects of creatine and finasteride on DHT levels, as well as a discussion regarding the potential link between creatine supplementation and hair loss.
Concerns about CosmeRNA safety mechanisms and potential side effects. Discussion includes comparisons to Fluridil and questions about nanoparticle specificity and siRNA stability.
The FDA will now require only one clinical trial for drug approval, potentially speeding up the release of hair loss treatments like PP405. Pelage is expected to present full results of PP405 Phase 2a trials and move to Phase III in mid-2026.
A healthy scalp barrier is crucial for hair growth, and ceramides may play a key role in maintaining it. The conversation suggests that focusing on scalp health, alongside treatments like Minoxidil, Finasteride, and RU58841, could improve hair follicle health.
Analyzing data on pyrilutamide, a potential hair loss treatment, as well as the effectiveness of other treatments such as Minoxidil, Finasteride, and RU58841.
The conversation is about analyzing receded temple closeups for signs of fibrosis, scarring, or androgenetic alopecia (AGA). Specific treatments like Minoxidil, finasteride, or RU58841 are not mentioned in the conversation.
A user shared their experience with hair loss treatments, finding success with a topical hair serum containing GHK Cu and AHK Cu, which reduced shedding. They avoided hormonal treatments like finasteride and minoxidil, and noted skepticism from others about non-traditional treatments.
