Whey protein does not cause hairloss; concerns are likely unfounded. The user is on finasteride and minoxidil but sees no improvement, so they are phasing out these treatments while continuing to work out and use whey protein.
A 37-year-old with a receding hairline started using finasteride and plans to add minoxidil, concerned that creatine and whey protein might accelerate hairloss. Another user suggests these supplements likely don't increase testosterone or cause hairloss, advising to monitor personal experience.
Hairloss may be linked to the TRPS1 gene and protein, not just DHT. Amplifica's AMP-303 targets mesenchymal stem cells and shows promise in treating hairloss, unlike Pelage's PP405.
Whey protein is unlikely to cause hairloss, and some users suggest it might be beneficial if dietary protein is insufficient. Hairloss is generally considered genetic, and there is skepticism about the dermatologist's advice to switch from whey protein to whole foods.
The conversation discusses whether whey protein and creatine worsen hairloss. Some users report hairloss with creatine use, while others do not; opinions on whey protein's effects are mixed. Treatments mentioned include PRP, minoxidil, and finasteride.
