A user reported no improvement in hair loss after nearly a year of using 1mg oral finasteride, topical minoxidil twice daily, and weekly microneedling. Other users suggested the possibility of DUPA or retrograde alopecia and mentioned that treatments might only slow down hair loss rather than regrow hair.
community Dutasteride Isn't Working? Get a Scalp Biopsy NOW
Dutasteride may not be effective for everyone due to underlying issues, suggesting scalp biopsies for further diagnosis. Users discuss using higher doses of dutasteride, topical treatments, minoxidil, and pyrilutamide for hair loss management.
community If You Have DUPA, PLEASE READ THIS: Everyone Should Be Scalp Biopsied
Scalp biopsies are crucial for diagnosing hair loss conditions like Diffuse Unpatterned Alopecia (DUPA) and retrograde hair loss, as treatments like finasteride and dutasteride may not be effective if other conditions are present. Combining PPAR-GAMMA agonists with retinoids could improve treatments for conditions like Lichen Planopilaris.
