What's your stack against hair loss?

What's your stack against hair loss?
Started really late, at 34 and Norwood 3.5 while balding since 12 y.o., because I didn't realize there's something better than minox (and couldn't really dedicate myself to do it regularly) and wanted to wait with fin until my beard fully matures. Currently been using, for almost a month:
>topical minoxidil 5% 1ml twice a day, soon switching to oral minox 2.5mg once a day
>microneedling at 1mm once a week, using a dermaroller, but already ordered a dermapen
>topical retinol and ascorbic acid once a day and oral collagen, hyaluronic acid, astaxanthin, lycopene to maximize collagen production after microneedling
>mild oral 5ar blockers like saw palmetto, stinging nettle, fenugreek and turmeric, topical 5ar inhibition is superior and leads to less scalp DHT, anyway
>RU5881 5% 0.5ml once a day, just started
>ordered topical dutasteride 0.05% to apply after microneedling (unlike with topical fin, even subcutaneous injections didn't affect serum DHT, only scalp)
been able to reverse it to almost Norwood 3 in 3 weeks so far. Hoping to get it to Norwood 2.5 in a year, then maybe a transplant

      Topical Fin+Min+Tretinion solution applied daily. I take biotin supplements and switch to a sulfate free shampoo.

      Just try it. If it gives you negative sides then switch to topical or lower the dosage.

      apply it topically. 0.025% works as well as popping a Propecia tablet for scalp DHT, but barely affects serum DHT. wish I knew it earlier

          you can use the tablets no problem, but you need a proper solution. the easiest way is to dissolve it in a bottle of topical minoxidil

          if you don't want to use minox, you can buy 2% minox, which shouldn't have any effects when used at 1ml once a day. 2% barely does anything even at twice a day, or prepare a topical solution yourself, e.g. from alcohol and propylene glycol, similar to https://moreplatesmoredates.com/how-to-make-a-ru58841-solution/

          learn to read, moron. the post was specifically about significant reduction of serum DHT supresson with the same effectiveness of supressing it in the scalp, not that it doesn't get absorbed at all.
          dutasteride most likely doesn't, though, according to the studies, though, even when injected under the scalp, the molecular mass is too high, but it is still able to reach the follicles, especially after microneedling, similarly to ketoconazole, which also has a molecular mass slightly above 500

          there are volumes and concentration at the bottom of the pic, i.e. 1ml of topical solution was applied, 0.25% topical goes systemic just as oral, but it's ~70% effective at getting rid of scalp DHT, compared to 50% for oral fin (and dut). 0.025% solution is as effective as the 1mg tablet, but limits serum DHT by only about 25%. if you're asking about the concentration in the whole solution, because you want to make it yourself, dissolving 60 1mg tablets in a 60ml bottle of minox gives you a 0.1% solution, 15 a 0.025% etc.

      DHT is overall a trash hormone, so says the 40 year video game addicted manchild bachelor living in Colorado, and according to him again, you might as nuke it with finasteride obviously for hairloss but also other shit like skin aging. You trade that for bodyhair growth but he doesn't seem to give a shit as well. Btw idk if you're OP but if you are it's literally over lmao, norwoord 3.5 talking about fin and all of that, get a fricking hair transplant you'll never reverse to norwood 1 bud.

          Beard and chest hair doesn't become less with lower DHT unless you're a literal teenager. Just grows at a slower pace. If you already got it, it won't change. Literal trannies with with no DHT and test left in their body have to laser away their beard and chest hair.

    RU is all you need, it's not the DHT in your bloodstream that causes hairloss, it's the one that gets on your scalp, and RU basically stops the absorbtion, just using that is enough, only problem is some people say they had sides from it, some say they had nothing, and nobody bothered during a double blind study. On paper it's a miracle and the solution to everything but you just don't know what it could potentially do.

      it's still has less of the binding affinity to the hair follicle receptors than DHT, so decreasing scalp DHT could be beneficial. minox with microneedling could also be helpful for regrowth of dormant follicles. I will stay just on RU if I won't experience any additional regrowth or once it stops

      > I was originally planning to go to Nimclinic or Hermest in Turkey.
      I never heard of those clinics, and i did extensive research before my transplant, so i would stay away. You can go on hairrestorationnetwork if you want to do research on clinics
      >Also, would it be wrong to get FUE to start with? I have read some stuff online that made FUT seem risky in terms of the cosmetic outcome of the resulting scar.
      If you go to a top level clinic like hattingen theres little chance your scar will be noticeable. After going through multiple big transplants your donor will be full of scars anyway so you can forget about keeping your sides trimmed regardless.
      FUT is a pretty outdated procedure that is slowly being abandoned, but there is still an advantage about it, which is to increase maximum potential of grafts available, which is very important to a nw7 like you.

        Thanks for the reply, brother. I am thinking of going to Dr. Rahal in Canada, who you recommended, since I am in North America.

        Any opinion on timing of accutane (isotretinoin) relative to the transplant? I just started it a month ago to clear my back acne. Conventional wisdom is to wait at least 6 months after finishing accutane before elective surgery. You think that will be OK? Also i am not sure if it is safe to microneedle while on Accutane.

            Thanks for the rec. Thoughts on body hair transplant? My plan is to do 6000 scalp units in my first transplant to restore the hairline and add some density. And then return a year or so later for 6000-10,000+ units using whatever remaining donor scalp hair is available plus as much beard and chest hair as possible. I think 10-15K units can reverse Norwood 7 to 1.

              OP here. first go on a stack that includes a 5 alpha reductase inhibitor, like finasteride or dutasteride (can be topical or oral, topical is more effective), minoxidil (can be topical or oral too, oral is more effective) and a topical anti-androgen like Pyrilutamide, RU58841, CB-03-01, for at least a year. could be the one I listed in the OP. you never know what you can regrow and if your balding was progressing so fast, the chances are that you follicles didn't have time to die completely, like my temples surely did in the last 2 decades. you could even regrow enough to just do a regular FUE transplant.

                also, there are mixed opinions on microneedling, but I guess it doesn't hurt to try as the claims that it makes balding worse seem to be bullshit.

                https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4976400/
                states that it's optimal to apply topical ascorbic acid and retinol/retinolic acid with microneedling for collagen production. I guess oral collagen and other supplement optimizing its production don't hurt either

        There are studies to support.
        You can use minoxidil on your beard too, and the hair gains are somewhat permanent. Problem is it can frick up your face collagen and cause permanent moon face, plus dark under-eye circles. Micro needling your beard has none of these downsides.

          50% can still not stop balding completely without an additional anti-androgen, like CB-03-01 or RU. even fully nuking serum DHT with dutasteride also doesn't seem to lower scalp DHT beyond 50%, you need to use a 5ar inhibitor topically for that.

      That is only useful if you suffer from dandruff or fungal infections.
      Minoxidil and dermarolling are only if you want regrowth, not if you are just content in stopping hair loss. Minoxidil is a hassle and you have to smear oily shit on your head forever. Its not a good option if you want to keep your hair longer than 3 inches, or you are simply unwilling to take such commitment.

          im not going to say its safe; just that it works. if it doesnt work for you, its because minoxidil needs an enzyme called SULT1A1 and you don't have enough of it and will need to look into tretinoin to become a minoxidil responder.

    3 year fin 0.5 every day

    Yes, it will have some weird sensations week 1 or 2 not it go away as fast as it comes

    My two grandfathers died from enlarged prostate. Week one of fin I had a super sharp pain under my balls.

    Dermaroller is cheap and is a good combo with minox. Just keep in mind that just it will be a dose of pain every day and your brain will trick you to avoid doing it.

    About the dick you will have more seminal fluids on your cum, so it increase volume and become less white.

    It lasted for about a year and half with me, now it seems to have the same consistence as before.

    And after 3 years I have noticed that if I start jumping days without the 0.5 fin tabs I get little puberty phases, when I get oiled skin and pimples. Weird.

    No brain fog, just the same out autism that I am known for.

    Dead folicles on the temples don't regrow, but you can't see the hundreds of miniaturized roots that can be saved.

    Took me 2 years to reach full regrow potential

      this gives me hope. Is mine much worse (norwood 4A, I think, the hair at the edges are recent regrowth)? I thought it was over, gave up over a decade ago, but I saw a bunch if insane regrowths recently, so I started an actual routine. my temples have been bald for like 20 years, so they must be dead, but even filling out what I have now would allow me to just buzzcut and not have to go through the hell of shaving my head

      , it absorbs very easily through skin and there no need for additional serum dht reduction if the scalp reduction is achieved. topical fin is superior and the only reason to use it this way is convenience, which is questionable when using topican minox anyway, so it only makes sense if someone wants to take both orally, just swallow two pill and call it a day

      got me into normal DHT range, which is exactly what I wanted. taking 5ar inhibitors orally to reduce DHT in the scalp is moronic anyway, because only 50% reduction can be achieved, even when nuking serum DHT completely with duta. topical fin everyday or, even better, topical dut once a week after microneedling, are the resonable option.
      keto schampoo also works, too little as a sole treatment, but it's a decent addition

I'm not taking anything that lowers serum DHT myself, but it's just for vanity reasons, I really like my thick beard, I'm not trying to pretend that I'm worried about my dick or depression, and topical 5ar inhibitors are better anyway for the scalp

              I can't comment on reddistarine syndrome, but tanking your DHT fricks with your libido. There's no way around it. I don't think it's unconceivable that for some people it will also cause other shit like depression or at least some degree of anhedonia.
              As a comparison: nofap can increase libido and 'cure' ED for some men, while others will literate turn them into Pee Wee Herman.

Ive been balding since i am 16 so just for once i want to look young, get the haircuts that i actually want, dress in whatever style i want and enjoy the last 7 years of my youth

    I'm 23 and daily fin isn't working for me, I always had thin hair but now you can clearly see my scalp under lighting it fricking sucks. however earlier today I got blue balled by a woman so hard that my erection is physically painful, so maybe I'm just immune to it somehow

      it doesn't really affect errections, it's just a reddit mass delusion, and it's coming from someone who doesn't want to decrease serum DHT for other reasons. oral fin or even duta only limit scalp DHT by about 50%, you need topicals. preferably both 5ar (fin or dut) and an antiandrogen (Pyrilutamide, RU58841, CB-03-01). also minoxidil. oral is more effective, but can cause sides (non-homonal, like water retention or dizziness, it's a hypertension medication)

      >I was super bald.. had just a little bush of hair over the middle of my head
      this gives me hope. Is mine much worse (norwood 4A, I think, the hair at the edges are recent regrowth)? I thought it was over, gave up over a decade ago, but I saw a bunch if insane regrowths recently, so I started an actual routine. my temples have been bald for like 20 years, so they must be dead, but even filling out what I have now would allow me to just buzzcut and not have to go through the hell of shaving my head

      most of the time, but I've never claimed that it never made much of an impact on me

      >QRD on what works best if you're not a whiny homosexual who cares about things like "muh libido?"
      something like what I outlined in the OP, i.e. a topical anti-androgen (Pyrilutamide, RU58841, CB-03-01, Fluridil, etc.), a 5ar inhibitor (topical works best even if you don't care about muh libido, it goes systemic up to the tablet levels at higher concentrations anyway), growth stimulant (oral minox being the strongest, or topical minoxidil combined with tretinoin or microneedling at 1-1.5mm once a week, also stemoxydine, a weak one, but can be stacked) combo. see:

      [...]
      also, there are mixed opinions on microneedling, but I guess it doesn't hurt to try as the claims that it makes balding worse seem to be bullshit.

      https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4976400/
      states that it's optimal to apply topical ascorbic acid and retinol/retinolic acid with microneedling for collagen production. I guess oral collagen and other supplement optimizing its production don't hurt either

      >I have a full 6 month supply of finastrride in my house but don’t want to start it yet. I’m a handsome guy as it stands and don’t want to risk finasteride particularly but if it needs done it needs done
      apply it topically. 0.025% works as well as popping a Propecia tablet for scalp DHT, but barely affects serum DHT. wish I knew it earlier

      it's the nuclear option that's guaranteed to stop hairloss and most likely regrow a lot of hair, but if your hairloss isn't agressive or far gone, you're probably fine with just popping a 1mg finasteride tablet once a day

      Norwood 2 looks kinda cool with slicked back hair, as long as it's stabilized and the remaining hairline is not thining, anything further than that, thining on top, creeped back hairline, etc., is always a complete disaster

    I use Dutasteride and minoxidil, the golden standard. But to be honest it's not really working too well, been on them for a year and half and can't tell if they're working or not.
    I'm a diffuse thinner and it all started when I took accutane, previously I'd never lose even a single strand of hair. So I'm pretty sure DHT isn't the root of my hair loss, but nobody knows anything else other than to attack DHT so I take my dutasteride and shut up.

          >Your body likes DHT, especially as a man. Taking Fin or Rogaine is a gamble with your sex drive.
          it doesn't after your body fully matures. once your beard fills out fully, I can't think of a single positive effect. after that it generally just makes your existing facial hair grow faster, enlarges the prostate and obliterates hair. your body likes testosterone. anyway, as I said, you don't even have to reduce the DHT levels in your body, just in the scalp.
          Rogaine has nothing to do with hormone levels. it's a blood pressure medication that extends the anagen phase of hair growth, probably by acting as a potassium channel opener.

        topical antiandrogens, like RU58841 or Pyrilutamide are much more effective than fin, especially on roids, because increased testosterone can also affect hair follicles, but fin is usually enough as prevention. it's best to take both, along with minoxidil, if the baldness has already advanced.

    Ok so I've been using topical min for 9 months and never noticed much regrowth, maybe some VERY SLIGHT regrowth on the sides but that's it. But I started oral fin a few months back and I'm already seeing temple growth. My question is should I stop minoxidil? It dries my scalp out and I don't really enjoy using it, I think it gives me facial aging and barely any regrowth. I think I should just use oral fin for a year and see where that gets me. More than likely I'll end up getting a hair transplant then. Does topical min have any real benefits? Seems like most guys don't get any growth.

      Topical min unfortunately only actually works for 30-50% of dudes. You have to have a certain enzyme present on your skin to make it convert to its active form and if you don't you're fricked. You can get around that with microneedling a bit, tretinoin which apparently activates it, or taking it orally.

    Women don't care about balding guys as much as you think. Go look up any youtube video, forum, or even ask in real life how much they care about bald people. Before you say "women always lie", think about how many ugly guys have partners out there. Balding works great with fitness because muscular bald looks are a perfect combination. They care as much to bald guys as we are to their eyelashes: we do not care.

      Agree.

      8 months of fin 1mg (nothing else) and I look so much better. Hairline has came forward like 3cm at the front. Fin especially is such a cheap, safe and easy way to improve your looks you'd be insane not to try it.

      I swear most the hate comes from people who are too far gone and annoyed at themselves for not using medication so they make up stuff about the meds to convince themselves they made the right choice.

      Good for you, but don't downplay the sides because no hair doctor ever said there are no sides. There will be, it just depends how severe they are. Some people get some, some so few they don't notice it, some people get a lot.

      I'm bald and my wife likes it because I look clean and masculine but personally if there was a magic drug that will let me get my hair back I'd do it. I tried fin before on different doses and I hate the brain fog and lower erection quality so I said frick it.

        >alternative, much more effective than oral fin, treatment options listed all over the thread and even in the fricking OP
        >continues pretending it just can't be helped, lamenting over his alleged sides that are most likely psychological, instead of admitting he was a dumbass who lost his hair for no good reason
        there literally is a shitload of "magic drugs" that completely stop balding for almost everyone and I can at least admit I was an idiot for waiting over 20 years to get on the treatment

          Man if fin works for you then good for you, but why do fin shills always insist that the sides are "psychological"? Like it's literally known that the makers of fin acknowledge the sides and doctors who prescribe fin have to disclaimer the sides, but there's always these cults who praise it as some kind of wonder drug and anyone who disagrees or says there are sides is dumb or lying or wrong, it's so weird man. At least steroids users know what they're getting into, fin cultists are just next level.

            I don't even use fin or oral 5ar inhibitor. there are much more effective options
            > but why do fin shills always insist that the sides are "psychological"
            because every other redditor seems to have a post finasteride syndrome for years after trying a drug with a half life of a few days and no long term effects ever confirmed, and the placebo group in the studies often seems to have more sides in the studies. legitimate sides exist and it's a small fraction of a percent of users, just like with any other popular drug. brain fog which everyone seems to have is one of least likely ones

            There are sides, but they are so insignificant that its not even worth talking about.

            >"i want hair but i dont wanna lose 10% of my chud powers by blocking DHT."
            >"yeah i know women wont talk to me if im bald but still muh erections i totally use"

            Stop coping. Literally stop coping. Brainfog is bullshit, be a man. If i can work a full time job and be in school for a PHD at the same time, so can you. If i still have a sex addiction and cum 4 times a day with a volume that would put a racehorse to shame, so can you.

            also, it's funny how you keep conveniently ignoring what I said about other options and that I don't even try to fight scalp DHT by reducing it in the serum, because it isn't as effective, because it mean that you lost your hair for no reason just because of alleged side effects from one of many possible options, not even close to the most effective

      and there's a significant chance they still can, but there're too stupid to even try. there are some absolutely crazy regrowth cases, like Norwood 5 to 1 in 6 months

    Why don't you just bite the bullet and take oral fin/dut already?

      because topical is much better. oral fin or dut can only achieve up to 50% scalp DHT reduction, topical fin 70%. I chose topical dut, because it has a long 28 day half-life, so it's fine to apply just once a week after microneedling, with local absorbtion and not going systemic even with subcutaneous injections being confirmed by studies. I need a DHT blocker that's suitable for microneedling, because I have to wait at least 24 hours after with applying RU58841 too

    I was fine with my widows peak for the last 12 years but now that the middle of my frontal hairline is thinning i´m starting fin minox and dermarolling.
    Why is everyone on 1mg per day when you have studies showing half of that has the same result in lowering DHT?
    1mg Mon Wed Fri is doing almost the same and much less chances of sides so i'm starting with that.

    I’ve had virtually the same hairline since I was 20, 29 now and losing about a mm per year I think. Pic related. Never gonna take supps like a cuck, dads bald and little brother has been completely reaped. I’ll let age take its toll like it’s supposed to. I’m not a woman.

    I'm 29, thought I had perfect hair genes but heard my granddad on my dad's side went bald (I also heard it "skips" a generation, might be some broscience BS)

    It's annoying because I'm literally getting the EXACT beginning of hair loss. I will brush my fingers through my hair and just notice a strand stuck in my fingers sometimes. I know I'm starting to lose it and I want to be proactive but all the supplements and side effects plus all the hustlers trying to make money off of people with hair loss is really putting me off trying to fix it. Would really like to stop shedding hair like a fricking dog.
