research The Role of rs6152 Allele and Non-Genetic Factors in Androgenetic Alopecia: A Pilot Study in the Indonesian Local Population
The rs6152 allele is not a good marker for baldness in the Indonesian population, but family history, age, gender, high blood pressure, and body weight are linked to the risk.
research Lab Quality Management and Methodology
Men with early balding should be checked for metabolic syndrome, as there's a link between the two.
research Male-pattern baldness susceptibility locus at 20p11

The user is using testosterone and finasteride to prevent hair loss and is considering adding Primobolan or Masteron, which are DHT-derivatives. They are seeking advice on their genetic risk for male pattern baldness and whether they can safely use these compounds without significant hair loss.
community 3 months progress!! Fin + Min + Derma roller + Nizoral Shampoo.
The post discusses a user's successful hair regrowth after 3 months using 1 mg oral finasteride, oral minoxidil, weekly 1.5mm derma rolling, and Nizoral shampoo every other day, with no side effects. The conversation includes various responses, questions about the user's ethnicity and previous scalp condition, and suggestions for topical treatments.
community Chromosome 20’s balding effects and why fin likely isn’t working for some.
Finasteride is effective for DHT/AR-driven hair loss but not for chromosome 20-driven cases, where treatments like minoxidil, prostaglandin analogs, and low-level laser therapy may be more beneficial. Genetic testing can help determine the underlying cause of hair loss to tailor treatment effectively.
community If you were on finasteride, but experiencing negative symptoms and didn’t know about PFS, would you want someone to tell you?
Finasteride users discuss potential side effects, including Post Finasteride Syndrome (PFS), with varying opinions on its legitimacy and impact. Some users report side effects like changes in semen consistency and reduced pre-ejaculate, while others emphasize the rarity and reversibility of side effects.
community Finasteride is save in the eu (they concluded the investigation)
Finasteride and dutasteride are still available in the EU, with a warning about potential suicidal thoughts. The benefits of these treatments are deemed greater than the risks.
