Dairy may contain DHT precursors that could affect hair loss and prostate health, with some users noting reduced hair shedding after eliminating dairy. Individual responses to dairy and DHT blockers vary, with some attributing hair health to diet changes and others seeing no impact.
community Are we underestimating systemic absorption with homemade/generic Topical Fin? (HPCH vs. PG/Ethanol formulations)
Topical finasteride may have higher systemic absorption and lower efficacy when using a Propylene Glycol/Ethanol formulation compared to the hydroxypropyl chitosan (HPCH) formulation. The safety profile of topical finasteride relies heavily on the HPCH formulation, and using standard solutions might lead to different pharmacokinetics.
community Why liposomal finasteride and minoxidil may be better than traditional topical solutions.
Liposomal formulations of finasteride and minoxidil may enhance drug delivery to the skin and hair follicles more effectively than traditional solutions, potentially improving treatment outcomes. However, more human clinical trials are needed to confirm these benefits.
community The theory that explains everything. The malloclusion theory has been proven.
Brian Dye's theory links skeletal malocclusion type II to hair loss, suggesting it's a blood flow issue. Treatments mentioned include minoxidil, finasteride, and anti-inflammatory drugs like benaxoprofen.
community Opinions on Scalp fibrosis and DHT?
The conversation discusses the theory that scalp fibrosis contributes to male pattern baldness (MPB) by increasing DHT concentration, and mentions treatments like Minoxidil. The user seeks opinions on the theory and the effectiveness of scalp massages.
