5 / 433 resultscommunity Fun thought experiment about halting hair loss permamently
A user proposed genetically engineering scalp stem cells to stop androgen receptors from causing hair loss. Others discussed the feasibility, existing research, and potential issues with this approach, including targeting the correct cells and unintended effects.
community Woolly mice but no hair growth treatment for humans yet 🤷♂️
Hair regrowth treatments are effective in mice but not yet available for humans. The discussion humorously highlights frustration over this disparity and mentions a project to genetically modify elephants to resemble mammoths.
community When someone posts a scalp tension theory
Hair loss theories discussed include poor blood flow, scalp tension, inflammation, and DHT. Treatments mentioned are massaging scalp, minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841.
community Update: 7.5 months of fin, 4 months of min
The user experienced significant hair regrowth after 7.5 months on finasteride and 4 months on minoxidil, with some shedding initially but no major side effects. They also achieved body transformation through training and diet, without using creatine or whey protein.
community Hair loss causes are still a myth.
The conversation discusses the complexity of hair loss causes, suggesting that DHT sensitivity alone doesn't fully explain it. Treatments mentioned include finasteride and dutasteride.
