5 / 159 resultscommunity Is this Better Than Topical Minoxidil? Topical Diazoxide
Topical diazoxide may be a promising hair regrowth treatment, especially for those who don't respond to minoxidil, as it activates potassium channels without needing sulfation. It appears safe for topical use, avoiding systemic effects seen in oral use.
community Fluridil solution at Actifolic
Fluridil, also known as Topilutamide or Eucapil, is discussed as a treatment for hair loss. It is noted as an androgen receptor antagonist, not a vasodilator.
community New angles to attack beyond DHT
Exploring hair loss treatments beyond DHT, including Minoxidil, pyruvate, Gt20029 targeting androgen receptors, and vasodilators. Other options like Kx826, adenosine signaling, growth factor topicals, and microneedling are also discussed.
community Sustaining minoxidil dependent hairs?
Minoxidil-dependent hairs fall out if minoxidil is stopped. New treatments like GT20029, FOL055, or TDM105795 might help sustain these hairs.
community Why Viagra promotes hair growth like oral minoxidil
How oral minoxidil and topical sildenafil (similar to Viagra) are used for hair growth by increasing blood flow to the scalp, and potential side effects of combining these treatments with other drugs.
