5 / 1000+ resultscommunity 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.
community Which compounds in Saw Palmetto are actually beneficial?
Saw palmetto's fatty acids, particularly lauric and linoleic acids, inhibit enzymes linked to hair loss, while sterols like beta-sitosterol are less effective due to poor absorption. The conversation questions which specific compounds in saw palmetto contribute to its anti-androgenic effects.
community [Nov 2019] The peptide AC 2 isolated from Bacillus-treated Trapa japonica fruit extract rescues DHT (dihydrotestosterone)-treated human dermal papilla cells and mediates mTORC1 signaling for autophagy and apoptosis suppression
A peptide from Japanese water chestnut fruit may help with hair loss by suppressing DHT's effect on hair follicle cell death, potentially serving as a finasteride alternative. The treatment's effectiveness and safety in humans remain uncertain.
community Mystery compound found to be safe and effective at treating hair loss. Details in comments.
A compound called MTP3 from the Monoterpene family was found to be safe and highly effective at treating hair loss by inhibiting the FGF5 gene, but its identity is undisclosed for commercial reasons. No specific treatments like Minoxidil, finasteride, or RU58841 were discussed.
community Does anyone compound their own fin topicals?
The conversation is about a person considering making their own topical finasteride to avoid side effects from oral use. They discuss potential methods and ingredients, including cayenne pepper extract, rosemary, and coconut oil, and seek advice on effectiveness and alternatives like light therapy or dermarolling.
