Inderal and Hair Loss
I know Inderal can cause hair loss, but I only use it when I perform on stage. So I go weeks without using it, then maybe have 20mg at a time for performances. Would this limited usage still cause hair loss? Thanks
I doubt that the schedule in which you are using Inderal (propranolol) would cause hair loss, but you should speak more with your prescribing doctor about your concerns.

Inflammatory Scalp Disease
what is inflammatory disease on scalp ?? Is it different from male pattern baldness? I get lots of itching on my scalp…and directly entering norwood class 6… but my doc saw my hair under some glass which looks like a huge magnifying glass and said its male pattern baldness…
Inflammatory scalp disease is when there’s an inflammatory process occuring in your scalp causing hair loss. There will be macrocyte and other white blood cells releasing histamine and other chemicals to cause the inflammatory process. The diseases which can cause skin inflammation are psoriasis, alopecia areata, eczema, a variety of autoimmune problems, or infections. This is different for male pattern baldness (MPB), because MPB is caused by DHT attacking the follicles through growth interference and not by an inflammatory process. Some forms of inflammation do not cause hair loss, so you will need a doctor to help confirm your diagnosis, which sounds like what your doctor was trying to do for you.

Insulin Resistance and Hair Loss
Finnish researchers conducted a study involving women’s hair loss to determine if a high-glycemic diet and carbohydrates contribute to their balding. In the study, women who were more insulin resistant and ate more carbs had a higher risk of developing androgenic alopecia (AGA) hair loss. Aug 10, 2017.
We also know that men with insulin resistance have more cardiac disease and many with such diseases seem to have more hair loss as well, male or female.

3mgs finasteride per week for 9 months
Is 0.5mg finasteride EOD safe?
I’ve been taking .25mg every other day for 7 weeks now and my hairloss – especially around the crown – has only accelerated. Is it safe to keep going with this dose?
Safety is not an issue, effectiveness for low dosage as you are doing is the issue. This dose, based upon the Merck studies, is about 50% as effective as the full 1mg dose.
