    If other drugs do have significant systemic side effects by just blocking dht, why should a drug, that destroys the recepor should have no side effects at all. Isn't it more realistic to believe, that the side effects will even be much bigger 🙁

    Your claim that testosterone does not accelerate hair loss is false. Derek from MPMD did an experiment where he doubled his trt dose of testosterone to take him from 1000 total t to 2000, all while taking dutasteride to nuke DHT levels to basically zero. He found that his hair started noticeably thinning so he stopped. This proves testosterone alone can accelerate hair loss. It’s just that it has a lower binding affinity than DHT.

    • @haircafekevin
      @haircafekevin 2 години тому

      Not so. The flaw in Derek's experiment is that he didn't nuke the DHT in his hair follicles to zero. I understand he took 1 mg per day of dutasteride. 0.5 mg a day decreases scalp DHT by 50%, and 2.5 mg a day decreases it by 80%. So 1 mg a day decreases scalp DHT by maybe about 60%. That is not nuking DHT to zero, no matter what his serum DHT did. So with normal testosterone levels that be enough DHT suppression to stop hair loss in most people, but if you go to supra-physiological levels of testosterone, that is not enough DHT suppression. If you double your serum testosterone level, you are going to double your scalp DHT on dutasteride, and you'll see levels of scalp DHT similar to what you'd see if you had a normal testosterone level and just suppressed your scalp DHT by 30%. That's less than the amount of scalp DHT suppression that you get with finasteride. He was simply not taking enough dutasteride. He would have had to take around 40 mg of dutasteride a day to totally wipe out his scalp DHT. The way he did it, he still had plenty of scalp DHT to cause hair loss, and testosterone did not directly cause his hair loss.

    • @haircafekevin

    • @ProsperAims
      @ProsperAims 5 годин тому

      The combined analysis revealed that minoxidil treatment of AGA not only acts on androgenic receptors (AR) but also on 2 new targets, steroid 17-alpha-hydroxylase/17,20 lyase (CYP17A1) and aromatase (CYP19A1). The biological processes linked to these targets were concentrated on several pathways, including enzymes and hormones. Further experiments have revealed that minoxidil suppresses the expression of AR and CYP17A1, boosts the activity of CYP19A1, decreases the formation and binding of dihydrotestosterone, and enhances the production of estradiol. Through these changes, minoxidil acts as a treatment for AGA.

      Tbol is just way more androgenic than poeple seem to think. I tried a lot of compunds and I used to think TBOL almost was as low androgenic as anavar. It is defintly not. I say its like Dbol + its lowers SHBG unlike dbol so it will be more free-dht active in the blood as well ready to bind to reseptor sites. Put a girl in tbol and see watch happening. Its a reason woman who even takes winny stay away from tbol. I find low dose anavar to be quite safe. Anavar only even seem to make me regain som grown at dosages less than 30mg daily. LGD4033 and osterine also seem fine. I think LGD4033 gives the least hairloss per kg muscles buildt.

We all have the same effects. When we see people again after several months, they tell us we've lost weight, but we haven't. I have no other effects, sexual or mental, but this one is real. I don't have any other effects, either sexual or mental, but this one is real and I didn't believe their PFS delusions at first. Finasteride works crazy well, but this PFS thing is 100% true

    People take trt to get in the unrealistic high end of natural t levels. For some, high end T is a real cycle for bodybuilding since everyone needs a different amount of T to do the same thing naturally. Theres no way you can avoid hairloss if you double your testosterone even if its still in the 900ng/dl range. Not to mention TRT maintains the concentration of t in blood stable unlike the natural ups and downs of hormones during the day

    Kevin, thanks so much for this. I’ve been microneedling on and off for about two years, probably a year and couple months worth if I did it consistently. Stopping permanently now. I know you mentioned there’s no data on long term effects but in your opinion would one to two years count as short term use?

    hey kevin. I remember reading somewhere that finasteride has a half-life of 8 hours in the bloodstream. Wouldnt it theoretically make sense to take finasteride twice a day then? Since as finasteride disappears from the blood stream DHT can wreak havoc on the hair follicle?

    • @haircafekevin
      @haircafekevin 9 годин тому

      No, because even though the drug has a short half life, it outright destroys the DHT it suppresses and scalp DHT levels will remain low for a good while after finasteride is out of the system. It is why many people can stop hair loss even when using the drug every other day.

    Hi Kevin, I have an appointment with my dermatologist in about a week. Given that I'm only 18 years old and have been experiencing hair loss for around 1.5 years, would you recommend starting dutasteride right away? The fact that my hair loss started this early makes it seem relatively aggressive and makes me wonder if early intervention would be beneficial. I have seen some horror stories on tressless lately where people claim that dut ruined their hair which makes me a bit sceptical. Thanks for your advice

    Hey chooom got a very imp question for ya ... Ok there are two medicines available Fin and DUT.Lets suppose Fin is effective for 5 years For me, after which Dut needs to be taken, and it remains effective for 3 years. That is 8 years in total.I would like to inquire whether, if I skip the FIN medicine, Dut will Only work for 3 year or Not . Am I right or wrong ?

    • @haircafekevin
      @haircafekevin 7 годин тому

      There are too many hypotheticals in your question. There's no reason to think that finasteride would be effective for just 5 years and then dutasteride just 3 years more after that. I know what you are trying to ask, but I don't accept the premise of your question that the drugs would stop working after a specific time period. So I don't think any answer I give you would have any validity.

    • @haircafekevin
      @haircafekevin 17 годин тому

      I don't hate Tim Pool, I use him in my thumbnails because he's meant to represent the cold and harsh reality of hair loss most people are too afraid to talk about. When people cope with hair loss they often cherry pick the same few celebrities like Jason Statham, The Rock, Vin Diesel, etc so they can favorably compare themselves to them. But the reality is that the majority of people who do go bald are going to wind up like Tim as I portray him in my thumbnails, and I think it is important people know that. It's as I have been saying for years, for every bald man who looks like Jason Statham there will be a thousand more who look like Jason Blaha. I have the utmost respect for people who embrace their newfound identities as bald men, but let's not pretend the outcome is always as rosy as we hope it will be.

    Hey Kevin, I saw your video on microneedling and you basically said in combination with minoxidil it could work. That said, my hairline temples are so so stubborn to growth, I am thinking would it be a good idea to use the derma stamp on that region ? I’ve been using dutaseride and minoxidil for over a year, the hairline has gone from severely thin to a stage where I can safely conceal the hairline thinning regions. Can you make a video on stubborn hairline treatment?

    • @haircafekevin
      @haircafekevin 7 годин тому

      I said it does enhance minoxidil's effects. But alternatives to consider are adding tretinoin or going to 10% minoxidil. I don't think microneedling is a good long-term solution. I'll add your suggestion to my list of future video topics.

It seems to be working according to him? Is this just anecdotal Kevin or theres a difference between once vs twice? Thanks for the videos choom!

    • @haircafekevin

      0.5 mg once a week probably just wasn't strong enough for him. It's about equal to or a little less than finasteride at 1 mg per day.. Now he's taking 1 mg per week and probably getting better DHT suppression.
