Whatever potential benefits from reducing inflammation, de-calcifying, taking supplements are all absolutely superseded by genetics.
So it's not that they mightn't help or even work, it's that there are some people out there who could do none of those things, have the worst diet, no vitamin D, incredible calcification and inflammation, and yet a full head of hair. This is evidently, observably true.
It's true that there are some guys that could do all these things to the max and still go bald.
at the end of the day, its obvious that its the inflamation of dht causing this, most peoples hair on the back and sides is completely strong or unaffected by dht. and males that do sex transion grow their hair back in bald spots
And it's unfortunate that dht is linked to one of the most important things : sex.
Because we cant really block it without affecting our whole body system.
Apparently almost nothing can overpower androgens, even minoxidil stops working at some point.
If we want to win this battle, we need to address androgens locally,
the harsh thruth is that it's hard to imagine an anti androgen that will protect the whole scalp from dht while not affecting the rest of the body....... sounds almost impossible.
researchers/compagnies shouldn't really be focusing on using medication.
Trying to find dht resistant follicles or other ways to boost the scalp circulation/enviroment would be the best bet, it would probably be easier to only improve circulation on the scalp, while not affecting the whole body. We arent there yet. it seems that everything goes systemic unfortunately.
its not for no reason that bald men have less circulation on their scalp. follicles need blood to survive, thats why microneedling works, it forces the body to bring blood to repair the small wounds, so it helps to follicles constantly affected by dht to stay alive.
