5 / 1000+ resultscommunity Rethinking DHT and Hair Loss: Are We Targeting the Wrong Enemy?
Blocking DHT is not a cure for hair loss; instead, altering how scalp follicles respond to DHT might be more effective. Current treatments like topical finasteride and minoxidil are temporary solutions, and future approaches may involve gene therapy and bioengineering to change follicle behavior.
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.
community PP405 Won’t Work: Follicle Is Miniaturized, Fibrosed, And Missing Key Support Cells
PP405 is ineffective for miniaturized, fibrosed hair follicles in androgenetic alopecia. AMP303 may activate hair follicle stem cells, but minoxidil and finasteride are still the main treatments.
community Dht kills hair, but no one says why?
DHT affects hair follicles, contributing to hair loss, but the exact mechanism is unclear. Treatments like finasteride and minoxidil are used to manage hair loss, though they may have side effects and varying effectiveness.
community Haircafe slams pp405 presentation. Are results really that bad?
PP405 shows promise in activating dormant hair follicles and increasing hair counts but lacks detailed efficacy data compared to minoxidil and finasteride. Opinions are mixed, with some optimism and skepticism about its effectiveness.
