5 / 1000+ resultscommunity You will lose hair if your prostaglandins aren't in balance
Prostaglandin balance affects hair loss, particularly in conditions like Lichen Planopilaris, where an imbalance can lead to hair follicle damage. Treatments mentioned include prostaglandin analogs and Pioglitazone HCL, with a focus on maintaining prostaglandin equilibrium for potential hair regrowth.
community DLQ01: A Better "Minoxidil" PGF2a synthetic analogue.
DLQ01, a prostaglandin F2α analog, shows promise for hair growth by directly stimulating PGE2/PGF receptors without needing conversion, and can be combined with minoxidil and retinoids like tretinoin for enhanced effectiveness. Minoxidil's efficacy may be reduced by COX-1 inhibitors, but using prostaglandin analogs like Latanoprost or Bimatoprost can help maintain its effectiveness.
community Similar 5ar inhibitors to fin?
Natural vitamins like pumpkin seed oil, saw palmetto, and ecklonia cava are discussed for their potential to lower DHT levels. They may work similarly to finasteride but are significantly weaker.
community Topical - Lantoprost .01%, MIN 10% DUT .05%, Hydrocortisone 1% Progrestron .025%
A user was prescribed a topical treatment for hair loss including Latanoprost, Minoxidil, Dutasteride, Hydrocortisone, and Progesterone, after using an oral Minoxidil and Finasteride combo without significant results. Concerns were raised about the long-term use of hydrocortisone, with suggestions to consult a doctor regularly.
community Intriguing Molecular Structures and Questions (DHT, Progesterone, Fin, etc)
The conversation discusses the molecular structures of compounds that reduce DHT levels, including finasteride and Ashwagandha. It explores the potential of using Ashwagandha topically as a 5a reductase inhibitor.
