5 / 1000+ resultscommunity Why hasn’t anybody or any company done experiments on whether minoxidil and finasteride have effects on human collagen and elastin after a year of use compared to placebo? (In vivo not vitro)
The conversation discusses the lack of in vivo studies on the effects of minoxidil and finasteride on human collagen and elastin after a year of use. It highlights the potential benefits of such research for understanding side effects and improving sales, despite challenges like cost and competition.
community Peptides that Stop Hair Loss? | In-depth Literature Review Video
Peptides like TB500, KPV, GHK-CU, and BPC-157 are overhyped for hair growth with limited proven effectiveness in humans. Combining peptides with delivery methods like iontophoresis and sonophoresis shows promise, but many claims remain unproven.
community FCE 28260: A Forgotten 5α-Reductase Inhibitor
FCE 28260 (PNU 156765), an under-explored 5α-reductase inhibitor, showcases promising results in research by Giudici et al., outperforming well-known treatments like Finasteride in reducing the conversion of testosterone to DHT. Its superior efficacy, demonstrated through lower IC50 values in both natural and human recombinant enzyme studies, suggests it could offer more effective management of DHT-related conditions. Additionally, its lower molecular weight hints at better potential for topical application, potentially offering advantages in treating conditions such as androgenic alopecia. Despite its potential, it has not advanced in development, possibly due to financial limitations, leaving its therapeutic prospects and side effect profile largely unexplored.
community New and Interesting HairLoss Studies/Papers/Reviews
Hair loss treatments discussed include Dutasteride with Ketoconazole, tissue engineering strategies, and androgenetic alopecia therapies. Massage doubles follicular retention, improving treatment effectiveness.
community Personal Anecdote: Be careful with oral min, it can have a bad impact on your skin
Oral minoxidil can cause skin issues like redness and bumps. The user saw no hair improvement with oral minoxidil but noticed increased facial hair.
