research A controlled study of the effects of RU58841, a non-steroidal antiandrogen, on human hair production by balding scalp grafts maintained on testosterone-conditioned nude mice
RU58841 significantly increases hair growth rate and initiates more hair cycles, but doesn't affect hair thickness, suggesting it could be a new treatment for baldness.

Sublingual minoxidil significantly improves hair growth in transgender individuals on testosterone therapy.
research Treatment of androgenetic alopecia in transgender people receiving testosterone therapy with sublingual minoxidil: A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial
Sublingual minoxidil safely increases hair growth in transgender people on testosterone therapy.

Testosterone within the normal range does not significantly contribute to male pattern baldness (MPB); DHT is the main factor that can be controlled. Genetics play a crucial role in hair loss, and treatments like finasteride and dutasteride, which block DHT, can help despite potentially raising testosterone levels.
community Control your blood pressure - for me this was my root issue
Managing blood pressure can help with hair loss, as seen with the use of medications like Cialis and oral minoxidil, which improved hairline and blood pressure. Lifestyle changes, such as reducing stimulant use and adjusting testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) doses, also play a role in addressing hair loss and overall health.
community A tried and tested radical treatment for Hairloss in Men if you have enough self control.
The conversation suggests that abstaining from ejaculation for a few months may help stop or reverse hair loss by potentially increasing testosterone and reducing DHT levels. It also mentions the use of minoxidil and finasteride as effective treatments for maintaining hair after a hair transplant.
community 14 months on Fin, Total T 899, serum DHT 276 — high total T may still drive scalp DHT even when blood levels look controlled
A 23-year-old male has been using finasteride and topical minoxidil for 14 months with slight improvement, but recent shedding led him to switch to a new minoxidil formulation without success. He is considering using topical RU58841 or dutasteride to better address scalp DHT, as his bloodwork shows high total testosterone and mid-range DHT levels.
community M Thirties. Can gym gains cause hair loss?
A male in his thirties with a Norwood 2 hairline questions if gym gains and supplements like creatine cause hair loss. Responses suggest that while exercise can slightly increase testosterone and DHT, genetics primarily determine hair loss, and treatments like finasteride are recommended for DHT control.
