5 / 1000+ resultscommunity The Ordinary hair serum / Redensyl / Taxifolin initial experiences
A user shared their initial experiences with The Ordinary hair density serum, which contains Redensyl (taxifolin). They observed increased hair volume but also developed pimples, likely due to the serum stimulating sebaceous glands.
community Serum DHT CAN'T cause hair loss. Sebum DHT is a better measurement.
Serum DHT is mostly inactive; sebum DHT is a better measure for hair loss. Users discuss using finasteride, dutasteride, and topical treatments like KX826 and RU58841 for better scalp DHT suppression.
community Can absorption be intervened by oil, sebum etc?
The conversation discusses whether oily scalp and sebum can hinder the absorption of topical hair loss treatments like Minoxidil and Finasteride, even when using tretinoin. The user is skeptical about the effectiveness of these treatments due to their oily scalp condition.
community When you think about it blocking dht is not that big of a deal as it’s made out to be
Reducing sebum can indirectly lower DHT levels, with treatments like accutane, tretinoin, and green tea extract acting as DHT blockers. Accutane can lower DHT levels by reducing 5α-reductase activity, but its impact on hair varies.
community No fearmongering /just facts on yesterday someone posting on eye issues
Finasteride and dutasteride may not significantly impact meibomian gland function since these glands do not rely on DHT. Some users report dry eyes and other side effects from finasteride, but these may be influenced by other factors or medications.
