The Science of Healthy Hair, Hair Loss and How to Regrow Hair
Huberman Lab
The Benefits of Combining Microneedling and Finasteride Treatments
Combination treatments involving a mechanical stimulus and a chemical stimulus are more effective than either treatment alone. Microneedling is the most effective mechanical stimulus for hair regrowth. The combination of microneedling and finasteride can lead to significant hair regrowth, even for people with severe baldness. Additional treatments like ketoconazole shampoo and saw palmetto can be used in combination without negative effects. However, caution should be exercised when combining multiple treatments that affect hormone pathways. Individual response and side effects vary, so it is important to start with minimal effective dosages and consult with a medical professional. Mechanical treatments like massage and microneedling, as well as chemical treatments like saw palmetto and ketoconazole shampoo, can stimulate hair growth by targeting different pathways. Considering both mechanical and chemical approaches is recommended for anyone seeking to address hair loss and stimulate hair growth. Understanding the biology of hair growth can help evaluate different treatments and determine which ones are suitable. Subscribing to the YouTube channel is a way to support the podcast at no cost.
