PUFA foods like salmon and walnuts are healthy and do not accelerate hair loss. There is no evidence linking PUFAs to hair loss, and claims suggesting otherwise lack scientific support.
community Starting Finasteride After Being on Oral Minoxidil 19M
A 19-year-old is using 2.5 mg oral minoxidil for hair loss and plans to add finasteride later, but is concerned about potential hair loss after starting finasteride. Others advise starting finasteride sooner to prevent further hair loss, noting that shedding is a normal part of the process.
community Say this new supposed miracle drug “PP405” does actually cure baldness, how will that affect people with hair transplants?
PP405 may reactivate dormant hair follicles but won't replace hair transplants or resurrect dead follicles. Its effectiveness, cost, and impact compared to treatments like minoxidil and finasteride are uncertain.
community I bought 72 packages of Dutasteride
A user traveled to Turkey to buy 72 packages of Dutasteride for a year-long supply and successfully brought them back home. They plan to use 2.5mg of Dutasteride daily along with RU58841 for hair loss.
community If You Have DUPA, PLEASE READ THIS: Everyone Should Be Scalp Biopsied
Scalp biopsies are crucial for diagnosing hair loss conditions like Diffuse Unpatterned Alopecia (DUPA) and retrograde hair loss, as treatments like finasteride and dutasteride may not be effective if other conditions are present. Combining PPAR-GAMMA agonists with retinoids could improve treatments for conditions like Lichen Planopilaris.
