They report thicker, healthier hair and improved scalp condition, attributing success mainly to biotin, pantothenic acid, and finasteride.
Creatine use with finasteride increased DHT levels, possibly affecting hair loss. The user plans to reduce creatine to stabilize DHT and hair shedding.
Choosing between KB and PG solutions for applying RU58841, considering factors like scalp oiliness and absorption. Some users prefer KB for being gentler, while others use PG and recommend washing hair before application for better results.
PP405 is considered a promising potential cure for hair loss, with phase 2 trial results expected in February 2025. Hair cloning is also discussed as a potential ultimate solution, despite significant scientific challenges.
The conversation discusses using topical Calcipotriol and Valproic Acid for hair loss, focusing on their mechanisms involving the VDR receptor and Wnt/beta-catenin pathway. Specific treatments mentioned are Minoxidil, Finasteride, and RU58841.
Creatine may increase DHT levels, potentially causing symptoms like acne, oily hair, and hair shedding. Users report mixed experiences, with some avoiding creatine due to hair loss concerns and others seeing no impact.
Gym and creatine can cause hair loss by increasing testosterone and androgenic activity. DHT blockers may help some, while others need androgen suppression with topical AA like RU or Pyri.
A user was prescribed Alpicort E, which contains Estradiol Benzoate, Prednisone, and Salicylic Acid, for hair loss and is seeking others' experiences due to concerns about potential side effects.
Pyrilutamide/KX-826 is being discussed for its effectiveness in hair regrowth, with some users reporting positive results, especially in early hair loss cases. Users have combined it with treatments like Minoxidil, and some experienced initial shedding before seeing regrowth.
The conversation is about using finasteride and KX826 for hair loss treatment. The original poster is using 0.25 mg of finasteride every other day due to side effects at a higher dose.
Amino acids, particularly Cysteine, are important for hair growth and may be lacking in a normal diet. Using a protein powder that includes these amino acids can help improve hair growth and strength.
The conversation is about purchasing KX-826 (Pyrilutamide) on Amazon, now called Koshine. A user mentioned their order is expected to arrive between August 22 and September 13.
PP405 is a potential hair loss treatment undergoing trials, with discussions on its effectiveness and comparison to existing treatments like finasteride and minoxidil. There is skepticism about its status as a cure, with hopes for future advancements in genetic treatments like CRISPR.
There is an inconsistency between the molecular weight and formula listed on EveryChem's product page and the analytical PDFs for 3HP and PP30, suggesting a possible error in the product description. Concerns are raised about EveryChem's business practices and lack of transparency in testing and manufacturing.
RU and Pyri block androgen receptors to prevent hair loss but may also hinder hair regrowth since they prevent testosterone, which can stimulate hair growth, from binding to these receptors. The user is questioning if this understanding is correct.
Creatine may cause hair shedding and texture changes, with mixed user experiences. Combining creatine with finasteride doesn't always prevent these effects, possibly due to individual DHT sensitivity.
Pelage Pharmaceutical raised $120 million to continue research on PP405, a promising hair loss treatment that showed a 20% increase in hair density in 31% of men during a Phase 2a trial. The treatment was well-tolerated, with no systemic absorption, and Phase 3 trials are planned for 2026.
PP405 shows promise in hair regrowth, with 31% of participants experiencing over 20% increase in hair density after 8 weeks. Phase 3 trials are expected in 2026, with potential market availability by 2029-2031.
KX-826 is discussed as a hair loss treatment, with comparisons to finasteride. It is noted to be more expensive, harder to source, and generally used for stabilization rather than growth.
The conversation is about a user considering joining a clinical study for Clascoterone (Breezula) after experiencing no results with topical finasteride and minoxidil, and side effects from oral finasteride. The user is seeking advice on clinical study participation and experiences.
P-1075 is a more potent hair growth agent than Minoxidil, but it poses significant heart risks, making it unsafe for use. Despite promising results in macaques, concerns about its cardiotoxicity in rats have halted its development.
Cosmo Pharmaceuticals has enrolled about 850 out of 1400 patients for their phase 3 clinical trials of clascoterone (Breezula) and claims to be on schedule. The conversation is about hair loss treatments.
The conversation discusses disappointment over only receiving a financial report from Cassiopea instead of trial results for Breezula/CB-03-01, a hair loss treatment. However, there is optimism as the company is advancing Breezula into Phase III trials for men, starting trials for women, and submitting an NDA for their acne product, Winlevi.
The conversation discusses RU58841, a compound for hair loss treatment, which was found to be effective in a 6-month trial but was not pursued due to financial issues or marketability concerns, not safety. Some users are considering crowdfunding to release the research data, while others discuss personal experiences and safety concerns with RU58841.
