community Most promising cures for baldness as of May 2026
PP405 is the most promising future treatment for hair loss, aiming to reactivate dormant hair follicles. Clascoterone 5% is the most promising near-term drug, while current strategies include using finasteride or dutasteride to stabilize hair loss and minoxidil to stimulate growth.
community Accelerated Hair Loss from Creatine
Creatine may cause hair loss in some individuals, especially those on finasteride, despite no scientific link. Personal experiences suggest individual sensitivity to DHT could be a factor.
community We already know how to permanently fix hair loss. The science is done. The only thing missing is the funding to run one experiment.
A permanent hair loss solution could involve reprogramming hair follicles to resist DHT using mRNA and siRNA. However, high costs, safety concerns, and the pharmaceutical industry's preference for ongoing treatments over one-time cures are major obstacles, with finasteride and minoxidil remaining standard treatments.
community Occipitalis Muscle Tension Theory
Scalp tension from the occipitalis muscle is theorized to contribute to hair loss, but most believe DHT and genetics are the main causes. Treatments like finasteride and minoxidil are considered more effective than addressing scalp tension.
