community Had a son while being on FIN, MUST READ

in Finasteride/Dutasteride 619 upvotes 2 years ago

A user shared his experience of having two healthy children while continuously using finasteride (Fin) for hair loss, challenging fears about its potential impact on fetal development. The discussion that followed included various perspectives, with some users sharing similar experiences, others expressing concerns about potential risks, and some emphasizing the need for more substantial evidence before drawing conclusions.

community DHT Isn’t the Only Factor in Hair Loss and That Might Be the Key to a Real Cure

in Research/Science 370 upvotes 4 months ago

Hair loss involves more than just DHT, with genetic factors like TRPS affecting hair follicles. Treatments such as Amplifica's AMP-601 and AMP-303 target stem cells for potential hair growth solutions.

community What to do if fin is still not working after 2.5 years

in Finasteride/Dutasteride 22 upvotes 1 year ago

The user is experiencing increased hair loss despite using finasteride and oral minoxidil and is hesitant to switch to dutasteride due to side effects and family planning concerns. Alternatives suggested include dutasteride, microneedling, and addressing stress or nutrient deficiencies.

community Why does the same hormone grow your beard and destroy your hairline?

in Research/Science 40 upvotes 2 months ago

DHT promotes beard growth but causes scalp hair loss due to inflammation and fibrosis. Treatments like finasteride and minoxidil help with hormonal signals and blood flow but don't address underlying inflammation.

community Why do we have head hair in first place if we evolved to start losing it in some cases as soon as puberty hits

in Chat 138 upvotes 9 months ago

Hair loss is influenced by genetics and sensitivity to hormones like DHT. Treatments like Minoxidil and finasteride are commonly used, and baldness persists as it doesn't affect reproductive success.
