The efficacy of degrading the androgen receptor through dermal application in DP cells, a delivery system for topical drugs that involves dissolving microneedles, and rosemary oil as an alternative anti-androgen.
community Dutasteride takes 1-3 months to work in the scalp. Not weeks. Be careful.
Dutasteride takes 1-3 months to affect scalp DHT levels, not just a week. The prostate absorbs Dutasteride faster than the scalp due to different vascular networks and enzyme densities.
community Looks like a real cure to the root of baldness (DHT-induced senescence) was proven earlier this year
A study that outlines the full model for androgenic alopecia (AGA) which links DHT to cellular senescence in dermal papilla cells, and suggests black chokeberry as a source of cyanidin 3-O-arabinoside polyphenol with potential anti-oxidant properties that could reverse this process. The post encourages reaching out to experts in anti-aging and longevity to research treatments involving the polyphenol.
community 15 Week Update of Oral Consumption of Topical Minoxidil. 3 drops Keeps 5% (3.75mg) 2x per day with comparison.
CumShotDiva's update on using topical minoxidil orally in an attempt to regrow hair, which has been met with both support and criticism from other users. The conversation includes discussion of possible side effects and the efficacy of this approach.
community Taiwan scientists used naturally derived fatty acids serum to regrow hairs (in mice <.<)
A serum with oleic and palmitoleic acids shows promise for hair regrowth in mice, but its effectiveness in humans is unproven. Minoxidil and finasteride remain the recommended treatments.
