A 48-year-old man has been using minoxidil for 15 years and considered finasteride but stopped due to potential side effects. He is concerned about his mental health and the impact of hair loss on self-image, and he encourages support among men experiencing hair loss.
community Interesting article links major MPB theories to western diet (and life-style)
Poor diet and lifestyle contribute to male pattern baldness. Treatments like Minoxidil, dietary changes, and lifestyle adjustments may help slow hair loss.
community Genetics are so weird and unpredictable
The user experienced male pattern baldness starting at 18, tried finasteride with no success, and switched to dutasteride, which halted hair loss. Minoxidil had no effect for them, while their brother, who didn't use AR inhibitors, maintained a juvenile hairline and successfully grew a beard with minoxidil, highlighting the unpredictable nature of genetics in hair loss and treatment response.
community New Research- Creatine Increasing Scalp DHT Without Corresponding Serum DHT Increase
Creatine may increase scalp DHT without affecting serum DHT, potentially speeding up male pattern baldness (MPB) for those genetically prone. Treatments mentioned include Minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841.
community Does CosmeRNA target the root cause of MPB?
.
CumsOnYourFeet69 has been discussing a new treatment called CosmeRNA which claims to target the root cause of male pattern baldness, and is considering using it in conjunction with Minoxidil instead of Finasteride due to possible side effects. Replies have highlighted that the efficacy of this treatment is still unknown, but it could be used as an effective maintenance option if successful.
