The treatment for androgenetic alopecia involves using finasteride and minoxidil with intense exercise and cold exposure to boost metabolism and reduce androgenic effects, potentially leading to hair regrowth. This approach may activate biological pathways for improved hair and overall health.
A user shared their successful hair regrowth journey using finasteride for four years, initially also using Rogaine. They experienced significant improvement, regrowing their hairline and crown, and noted being a hyper responder to the treatment.
The user is experiencing diffuse hair loss due to high testosterone levels and has tried various treatments including finasteride, minoxidil, nanoxidil, keto/caffeine shampoo, dermarolling, and RU-58841 with limited success. They are seeking advice on safely lowering testosterone levels to manage hair loss.
A 26-year-old male with high testosterone is experiencing diffuse hair thinning despite using a comprehensive treatment regimen including dutasteride, oral minoxidil, RU58841, ketoconazole shampoo, microneedling, and low-level laser therapy. Suggestions include adjusting dutasteride dosage, monitoring iron levels, and consulting a dermatologist for further evaluation.
User asks about two topical dutasteride solutions and wonders if 1% concentration is overkill compared to 0.1%. They also consider trying standard topical dutasteride before using Minoxidil.
