The conversation discusses interest in peptides for hair loss, specifically mentioning ahkCU and ghkCU. A user is considering adding ghkCU to their treatment regimen.
The Derma Harmony Sulfur/Salicylic acid soap bar shampoo caused significant hair shedding, oily scalp, and cystic acne. The user experienced better results with rosemary shampoo.
The conversation is about the stability of pyrilutamide in different solutions. The user is asking if a 70/30 ethanol/pg solution with 4% water will degrade pyrilutamide.
The user reports that MSM supplementation has thickened their hair strands while using finasteride and topical minoxidil. They also take zinc, copper, B-complex, vitamin C, vitamin D3, and K2, and plan to add omega-3, magnesium, astaxanthin, and pterostilbene.
Hair loss therapies focusing on hair follicle sugar metabolism and aldose reductase. Potential treatments include magnesium supplements, avoiding high glycemic index foods, and antioxidants.
A user applied the 8T3 product for hair loss, targeting LPP and AGA, and plans to update on its effectiveness. The product uses a saline buffered phosphate vehicle, suitable for those intolerant to ethanolic vehicles.
The user is seeking an alternative solvent for pyrilutamide due to skin irritation from ethanol and propylene glycol. They experienced similar issues with topical minoxidil.
N-Acetyl-Cysteine (NAC) was found to improve hair parameters in men with early-onset androgenetic alopecia, showing increased terminal hair count and decreased vellus hair count, with good tolerability. NAC, used alone or with minoxidil, may help due to its antioxidant properties, though its effectiveness can vary among individuals.
Saw palmetto's fatty acids, particularly lauric and linoleic acids, inhibit enzymes linked to hair loss, while sterols like beta-sitosterol are less effective due to poor absorption. The conversation questions which specific compounds in saw palmetto contribute to its anti-androgenic effects.
RU58841 can be ordered as a powder and compounded at home, but it should be stored at room temperature to avoid crystallization. Pyraulatmide may follow a similar principle.
The user noticed new baby hairs after using sulforaphane but is still experiencing shedding. They are seeking a supplement to stop shedding, possibly grape seed extract.
Selenium sulfide shampoo helped with a sore scalp but may cause hair root damage. Users experienced hair loss with selenium sulfide and ketoconazole, suggesting reducing use if hair loss occurs.
Taurine shows potential in combating hair loss caused by chemical stress, especially when combined with other treatments like finasteride. Finasteride demonstrated better stress-reducing effects in the study.
The conversation discusses using a multimodal approach to treat androgenic alopecia, including substances like gamma-linolenic acid, DHA, sulforaphane, melatonin, cetirizine, astaxanthin, fisetin, apigenin, curcumin, limonene, genistein, and berberine. Users also mention using ketoconazole, minoxidil, and low-level laser therapy (LLLT) as part of their hair loss treatment regimens.
The conversation discusses taurine supplements for hair growth, highlighting their potential to reduce DHT and improve hair health. A user comments that people often try alternatives to finasteride.
The conversation discusses hair loss treatments, specifically Minoxidil, finasteride, RU58841, and Sulforaphane supplements. Two brands of Sulforaphane supplements, Avmacol and Prostaphane, are mentioned with optimal dosages.
A user plans to create a copper peptide hair serum with GHK-Cu and AHK-Cu, considering adding 5% minoxidil but avoiding finasteride and dutasteride. They seek suggestions for improving the product without complicating it.
The conversation discusses concerns that Anagenic's version of GT20029 might not be as effective or safe as Kintor's, with comparisons to issues faced by pyrilutamide. The chemical structure of the drug has been published.
Micronutrient testing and deficiencies related to hair loss, particularly androgenetic alopecia (AGA). Discussion includes the impact of iron, selenium, zinc, copper, folate, B12, vitamin E, vitamin D, aminoacids, and fatty acids, alongside treatments like dutasteride or finasteride.
Copper peptides, specifically GHK-Cu, are discussed as a potential addition to hair loss treatments, possibly working synergistically with Minoxidil to convert vellus hair into terminal hair. The effectiveness and credibility of copper peptides are questioned due to the lack of widespread discussion and potential conflict of interest from the product's creator.
The conversation discusses the potential of creating a homemade sulforaphane topical for hair loss treatment. Participants mention challenges with sulforaphane stability and reference other treatments like Minoxidil.
Increasing the sult1a1 enzyme on the scalp may improve response to topical minoxidil. The user suggests using a baking soda solution, DMSO, and tretinoin to enhance enzyme activity and minoxidil effectiveness.
Sulforaphane, found in broccoli sprouts, promotes hair growth by degrading DHT. Users discuss its potential benefits and joke about unconventional application methods.
AHK-Cu peptide is considered better than GHK-Cu for hair growth. The user is seeking recommendations for trusted AHK-Cu peptide brands with third-party testing.
The conversation discusses optimizing sulforaphane in broccoli sprouts by soaking them in water at 74 degrees Celsius for 10 minutes. It also mentions hair loss treatments like Minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841.
Hair loss discussion involves experimenting with Sulforaphane from broccoli sprouts and possibly procyanidin b2. People seek updates on progress and if it's worth adding to treatment stack like microneedling.
A user suggests making a potent sulforaphane topical to degrade DHT and promote hair growth. Another user notes that sulforaphane's low molecular weight might also lower systemic DHT.
A user is seeking recommendations for a shampoo with 1% Ketoconazole that is sulfate-free. They are looking for a product without 'sodium laureth sulfate.'
