Filtered shower heads may improve scalp and hair health but do not affect male pattern baldness (MPB). Genetics and factors like DHT and scalp tension are more significant in hair loss.
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.
The user has been using oral dutasteride and minoxidil for over a year without regrowth or stability, and hair loss continues. Suggestions include checking for inflammation, considering a scalp biopsy, and trying microneedling, topical anti-androgens, or a hair transplant.
User shared 9-month hair regrowth progress using a Fin/Min spray from HIMS, with additional microneedling. Other users praised the results and discussed the effectiveness of topical treatments.
