The conversation is about the release timeline for clinical trial results and the availability of Breezula, a hair loss treatment. The user is not comfortable buying it as a research drug from China.

The conversation discusses the role of DHT in male hair loss and the effectiveness of treatments like Finasteride, which reduces DHT, and RU58841, which blocks DHT from binding to scalp receptors.

A dermatologist recommended a new supplement containing annurca apple, which reportedly doubles hair density and increases keratin after 60 days, to be used with finasteride. Some users are skeptical, considering it potentially ineffective or a marketing ploy, while others are open to trying it if it proves effective and affordable.

RepliCel's potential hair loss treatment may cost around $1000 and aims to protect hair follicles from DHT, possibly reversing some miniaturization. It is not considered a cure and may be most effective in early hair loss stages, with its main advantage over finasteride being the lack of sexual side effects.

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.

A 21-year-old male shared progress pictures after 6 months of using 1mg finasteride daily, reporting no side effects and noticeable improvement. The user got finasteride prescribed and did not mention using it in combination with minoxidil.

After quitting minoxidil 100 days ago, OP is experiencing significant hair shedding, which began a week after stopping and worsened in March. Suggestions include calming the scalp, ensuring adequate protein and iron intake, and consulting a doctor if shedding persists.

Finasteride and minoxidil can cause significant initial hair shedding, but regrowth typically follows after a few months. Shedding is not a regular occurrence but may happen to strengthen hair follicles.

PP405 shows promise in stimulating new terminal hair growth by activating dormant follicles, with no systemic adverse effects observed in a short-term trial. However, long-term efficacy remains unproven, and further trials are needed to confirm its potential as a hair loss treatment.
