Using retinol with minoxidil may not be as effective as tretinoin, but retinaldehyde or adapalene could be alternatives. A micro-roller with minoxidil is suggested for better results.

Rotenone, a natural plant extract, may promote hair growth by increasing LDH activity and blocking MPC in the scalp, but it carries risks due to its toxicity. The suggested formulation includes Barbasco extract, DMSO, propylene glycol or PEG-400, ethanol, and a carrier oil.

PG solvent is considered superior to K&B solvent for RU58841 and Pyralutamide due to cost and effectiveness. The user questions why they should use K&B when PG offers more benefits.

PP405, a topical LDH inhibitor, has shown to stimulate hair follicle stem cell proliferation in humans with moderate hair loss. They are advancing to more detailed trials this year.

A user made a 70/30 ethanol/propylene glycol topical finasteride solution but noticed chunks at the bottom. The discussion focuses on this issue with the DIY hair loss treatment.

The user shared their hair loss treatment progress using minoxidil, ketoconazole shampoo, a dermaroller, biotin, Pura d'or shampoo, and Propidren. They apply minoxidil daily, take Propidren and biotin pills, use two types of shampoo, and use a dermaroller weekly, avoiding finasteride due to concerns about side effects.
