I have read this notion that you need to keep blood flowing at a pace that slows down thinning. From my experience though. the faster i grow my hair, or the more circulation i have to my scalp the faster my hair thins out. I can't be the only person that finds that this is a thing, and its not...

The areas that itch recede very quickly. in a few days its very noticeable.

I never used to have the itch before taking finasteride. Now im stuck with it I have several theories of what i think it is. But then after 5 years i needed to figure out the triggers for this if i wanted to slow down hairloss. I had several blood tests over the years so i could figure out if...

I don't eat alot of veg in general. but i do take vitamin supplements. And after taking them for a few days i usually get the itch. I can't talk for everyone. But it does feel like the healthier i am the more common the itch is. I went a period of just eating pizza daily with no exercise ect...

The only way i have found to stop the male pattern baldness itch is just to be very unhealthy. Eat lots of fatty food, no excercise, lose all interest in everything. But the reason for that is likely because my testosterone is lower. Low sex drive, anxiety, I get loads of brain fog during this time and my energy...

I never really thought about trying every other day, i assumed it wouldn't do anything tbh. But then im fairly broken right now. I can't take B Vitamins for too long without scalp inflammation. which never used to be a thing before. So what chance do i have with oral minoxidil? I can't scalp...

I think i was on finasteride about 5 months. maybe under 3 months for duta as by that time i had accepted that scalp inflammation is not a good sign. Inflammation is death to the hair follicles, its not shedding, its just cutting off circulation to those areas. I was on and off different...

I have been off hairloss meds and topicals for over 5 years years. I did try oral minoxidil briefly last year and again had very bad scalp inflammation after day 2 and then i stopped. Had to wait a week for the inflammation to go away. History wise, i started out with scalp oils and saw...

Yeah I had it with finasteride too. my mistake was that I listened to people that said I should try something stronger. So I thought ok il try something stronger and so went on Duta. And then the itch was worse and never went away ever since. i feel like I’m being punished for believing I could...

So Upregulation means you are fucked.

I have no scalp inflammation, but i was slowly receding. After taking dutasteride i got scalp inflammation and after stopping it, it did not go away. How does it make sense that Duta would give scalp inflammation? i dunno. an immune response? Is testosterone alone actually doing the damage? is...

I tried Oral minoxidil last year. Had the sharpest male pattern baldness itch on the 2nd day of taking and it lasted for 5 days even after i stopped taking it. Its like there was a spot in the receding area that got so inflamed that it just needed scratching. And i feel like this is the way with...

I spent a good couple of years trying to halt my male pattern baldness. I started off small with oils and saw palmetto, and ended up progressing to the stronger stuff like Minoxidil and finasteride and duta. My first experience with finasteride was abit of an emotional wreck and that turned into...

I tried RU. Did not help. Infact may have done some damage to my scalp sensitivity. I'm convinced your immune system has something to do with whether these treatments work or not. If your immune system is good and its doing its job right, then it will try to defend against invaders. And sadly i...

Honestly yes i tried several shampoos that were natural. That didn't have this or didn't have that. shampoos for sensitive scalps or baby shampoo ect ect. they made my scalp itch worse. I have to also watch what face creams i use too because they also make it worse. I don't even know what id...
