5 / 397 resultscommunity What to do if fin is still not working after 2.5 years
The user is experiencing increased hair loss despite using finasteride and oral minoxidil and is hesitant to switch to dutasteride due to side effects and family planning concerns. Alternatives suggested include dutasteride, microneedling, and addressing stress or nutrient deficiencies.
community PSA: Fin/Dut are NON-NEGOTIABLE
Finasteride and dutasteride are essential for stopping hair loss, while natural remedies are ineffective. Minoxidil can be added if needed, but blocking DHT is crucial.
community Got a microscope camera. Here’s the difference between healthy and miniaturized hair
A user who shared progress pictures of their scalp using a microscope camera, demonstrating the difference between healthy and miniaturized hair. Various explanations for the cause of this were discussed, such as DHT build-up in scalp sebum causing an autoimmune response leading to inflammation and eventual hair loss, with some suggesting a do-it-yourself treatment involving adding ascorbic acid powder to shampoo.
community Looks like a real cure to the root of baldness (DHT-induced senescence) was proven earlier this year
A study that outlines the full model for androgenic alopecia (AGA) which links DHT to cellular senescence in dermal papilla cells, and suggests black chokeberry as a source of cyanidin 3-O-arabinoside polyphenol with potential anti-oxidant properties that could reverse this process. The post encourages reaching out to experts in anti-aging and longevity to research treatments involving the polyphenol.
community Rethinking DHT and Hair Loss: Are We Targeting the Wrong Enemy?
Blocking DHT is not a cure for hair loss; instead, altering how scalp follicles respond to DHT might be more effective. Current treatments like topical finasteride and minoxidil are temporary solutions, and future approaches may involve gene therapy and bioengineering to change follicle behavior.
