Use a stamp or roller for microneedling; stamps are preferred to avoid hair pulling. Clean tools with alcohol to prevent infection, and replace stamps every 4-6 uses.
community 5ar Type I in the frontal hair follicles - Dutasteride
The conversation discusses that dutasteride may be more effective than finasteride for frontal hair loss due to higher 5ar Type 1 enzyme activity in that area. Some users question the validity of this information, while others confirm it with additional sources.
community What type of hairloss do I have on my temporal points?
The user is experiencing thinning at the temporal points and has been using minoxidil, dermarolling, and a mixture of natural oils to improve hair growth. They are considering finasteride as a potential treatment based on shared information.
community A less common type of hairloss case
High-dose Lysine and Histidine supplements caused curly/kinky hair and shedding due to Elastin dysfunction. Minoxidil, white tea, and dark grape juice were mentioned as treatments to inhibit Elastase and mimic Lysyl Oxidase.
community 5 alpha reductase type 1 is in brain tissue producing the main endogenous gabaergic allopregnanolone, not 2. How can finasteride as a 5ar2 lower that?
Finasteride and dutasteride are discussed for hair loss, with concerns about their effects on neurosteroids and potential side effects like depression. Alternatives like topical estrogen and lifestyle changes are considered, with varying opinions on mental health and hair regrowth.
