community Study: There is 70x Higher Unconjugated DHT in Feces Compared To Blood Levels in Young Adults - Gut Microbiota Manages DHT Recycling and Metabolism
Gut microbiota significantly influences androgen metabolism, impacting hair loss treatments like finasteride. Probiotics, dietary changes, and fecal microbiota transplants may help manage DHT levels and improve hair health.
community Anything you use without scientific backing, just trusting your gut?
The conversation discusses using peppermint oil for hair loss, with one user applying it undiluted to the scalp and another combining it with finasteride and microneedling. Some believe in its effectiveness despite limited scientific evidence, and also mention rosemary oil as potentially beneficial.
community I had claude create a protocol only using fda approved drugs.
A new hair loss protocol using FDA-approved topical treatments targets eight pathways, potentially improving results by 60-75% compared to the standard 40-50% from oral minoxidil and finasteride. The protocol includes minoxidil, finasteride, tacrolimus, cetirizine, bimatoprost, lithium gluconate, losartan, melatonin, NAC, caffeine, and tretinoin, with a monthly cost of $35-50 in Mexico and $80-150 in the US.
