[@Asiansxsymbol]

Yes, because dermarolling makes the body send more collagen and other goodies to the punctured wounds to promote healing, which promotes hair growth.

Thank you so much for these videos, they are very educational and incredibly helpful. Could you please talk about Azelaic Acid for hair loss? I know some hair clinics use it in combination with Minoxidil. It seems to act as a DHT blocker with some initial, tentative evidence suggesting that it works. It also has a much safer side effect profile than Finasteride (although I am aware Finasteride is a much more reliable and effective medication with strong evidence base). Thank you!

[@eeiko321]

Ok, For me personally, I’ve got very slight thinning on the crown area. Not enough to try minixidik or finasteride. I’ve tried derma rolling as it’s convenient… but I’ve used it for more than 6 months on a weekly basis. Tried different depths; 1.5mm, 0.5mm and 1mm And it has done absolutely NOTHING and I’ve given up. Gains are Nothing more and nothing less. I decided to use it solo as I’ve read on a study that apparently micro needling on its own without the help of minoxidil is also affective… in my experience and opinion, it’s BS. Kinda reminds me of the apparent studies of ketaconozol shampoo being as effective as minoxidil.. which is bollocks (I’ve tried that too and still use it once a week) and there’s no no gains with that either. It seems that micro needling may need to be paired with something topical. If micro needling alone has worked on Women and mice…. I don’t believe that’s the same for men and MPB.

I was fearful too. Been on fin for months and no gyno thankfully since I developed minor gyno from puberty.

And if you go develop gyno even after stopping then use Raloxifene to help shrink it.
