    Default Theoretical opinion on Future "cures"

    I am wondering and thinking I can't be the only person pondering the following question: If an upcoming "cure" for hairloss is soon successful (Replicel, Histogen etc.) what would the transition off of one's current regimen and onto the curing treatment entail?

    Would drastically quitting finasteride, minoxidil or any other current treatment in replacement for a cure cause any bumps in the road as far as sudden sheds or hormonal changes? Or do you think the company who produces the curing treatment already has this in mind and plans to slowly transition people off of the old and hopefully no longer needed treatments? All just theoretical opinions.

    I agree. Until I know for a definite fact DHT blockers aren't necessary anymore, I will not be quitting them and risking my hair
