A 38-year-old man reports positive results using topical Minoxidil 5% and infraredtherapy for hair regrowth over four months, along with Saw Palmetto and Pumpkin Seed Oil supplements. Others suggest adding Finasteride for better maintenance and discuss the role of DHT blockers.
Microneedling daily at 0.3mm combined with topical finasteride and minoxidil is effective for hair thickening, with added benefits from near-infraredtherapy. The approach may not improve the front hairline, and deeper microneedling is done monthly for better results.
Insulin resistance may increase DHT production, contributing to hair loss, and addressing it through diet, nutrients, and natural DHT blockers like saw palmetto and pumpkin seed oil could help reverse hair loss. Some users prefer medications like finasteride for more effective results.
The conversation is about someone who has been taking finasteride for hair loss without success, considering switching to dutasteride or giving up treatment. Suggestions include trying dutasteride, microneedling, infraredtherapy, multivitamins, and high-concentration topical solutions combining finasteride and dutasteride.
Red light therapy with dual wavelengths (650nm and 850nm) can stimulate hair regrowth without DHT blockers. Consistent use of a panel with these wavelengths has shown positive results in hair regrowth.
