Anyone more information on this?

Transplanting bacteria from the bowel of one person to another could be a radical new way to treat alopecia areata.

A clinical trial is under way at Columbia University in the U.S., involving 40 alopecia patients, after reports of sudden hair growth in those who had the transplant.

areata - f***​

This is far from good news for XY's and like Telogen Effluvium, we might soon have guys praying to have areata which is sort of baldness that is nothing like Telogen Effluvium. Instead it is patchy and can be very close to no hair or looking like doll hair with much of it torn out. Virtually anything in our bowels or liver seems cause for hope. We all take crap in our daily lives, why not consume some more. Even the Romans only put urine and crap on their heads rather than consume it but I get that this is all done sanitary-like and all. Since under one percent of us on here have areata or seemingly even Telogen Effluvium, it's probably not great comfort but definitely worth more research. It would be just like male pattern baldness to make us eat sh*t or take female hormones to stymie our hair loss. No pain, no gain we say.

Stool transplants – also known as fecal microbiota transplants (FMT) – are a controversial therapy reserved for life-threatening bacterial infections and autoimmune disorders. Fascinatingly, people who’ve undergone stool transplants have later reported unintended benefits: weight

I tend to agree. One - two years ago if you had areata you were exactly where we are today.

Then out of the blue they have solutions coming to market (jak inhibitors). Fingers crossed we’re next.

alopecia areata is an autoinmune disease, fecal transplants are well known to help in most(if not all) autoinmune diseases

 

[keepcoolmybabies]

I do think more people suffer from hairloss causes other than androgens than likely diagnosed, which can possibly explain why antiandrogen treatment is ineffective for them.

What do you mean?

What do you mean?

You were saying things might sometimes come "out of the blue". In the meantime, people are gonna have FUEs, and not benefit from the upcoming solutions. For instance you're gonna need something better than hair revuvenation (Hairclone's first treatment if your donor looks like this.

Janey: I'm not talking about the scars. I'm talking about the depleted donor. This is just a random image from the internet.

Are those healed fringe scars?

Sure but what’s that got to do with this threads context?

Either way, I feel this, I have a FUT scar and a bringing vertex and it gives me the shits.

I really just want to shave my head but can’t. That said Joe Rogan did. He’s a good inspiration.

My options until a new innovation happens are:
- do nothing and rock the comb over and hope that oral min starts working
- shave + SMP
- shave + no SMP
- get another FUT

I won’t be making the choice lightly.

You've got it then. Check on the SMP because I get the willies about that and it might be not the best method for some people.

This is very interesting because the year my stomach went to hell is also when my hair started falling out. Never lost a hair in my life before that

The problem is post hoc ergo propter hoc is not always right.

-Get a cleaner scar with newer/better surgeons? (A. K. A. strip scar revision, whose purpose is not the same as FUT harvesting per se.)

You’ve got a FUT scar too?

 

[JaneyElizabeth]

You’ve got a FUT scar too?

I honestly am not sure. The refinements I got were cut out from strips and not punched out as I recall and that helped some with the exposed follicles.

How is hair now? Using finasteride again?

 

[Matt Rogers]

How is hair now? Using finasteride again?

Hair is thicker on top and the crown right now than it was on finasteride because I don't shed nearly as much hair as I used to. But hairline and temple points have been damaged since quitting finasteride unfortunately. It's been about 2 years since I've quit. I'm considering going back on at a microdose to start so my hair doesn't start shedding rapidly from the 1mg standard dose.
