5 / 1000+ resultscommunity The MPB itch aka DHT itch is very real.
Hair loss itch is caused by DHT attacking follicles and stimulating nerves. Finasteride users who respond well don't experience this itch.
community Attacking DHT synergistically both locally at the scalp and systemically = Greater Success??
The user has been using oral Dutasteride, RU58841, and Minoxidil for three years without success and is considering adding topical Finasteride or Dutasteride to target DHT both locally and systemically. Other users suggest sticking to a consistent treatment plan, exploring different combinations, and considering other factors like potential misdiagnosis or inconsistent medication use.
community New angles to attack beyond DHT
Exploring hair loss treatments beyond DHT, including Minoxidil, pyruvate, Gt20029 targeting androgen receptors, and vasodilators. Other options like Kx826, adenosine signaling, growth factor topicals, and microneedling are also discussed.
community Anyone here have a lot of knowledge on hair follicle stem cells and progenitor cells for PP405?
Hair follicle stem cells remain in bald individuals, but progenitor cells do not, raising questions about hair regrowth claims by Pelage. PP405 is discussed as a potential treatment, with skepticism about its effectiveness compared to existing treatments like Minoxidil and Finasteride.
community Do hair follicles ever really "die"? Or does all your front, mid, and crown hair just become vellus?
Hair follicles don't truly die but become severely miniaturized. Treatments like finasteride, dutasteride, and minoxidil can help restore hair by providing nutrients and reducing harmful effects on hair roots.
