Need one for hair loss ASAP.

Already exists (finasteride), only problem is that it castrates you chemicallym

For everyone struggling with hair loss but concerned about side effects of Fin. Look into topical fin. It produces higher concentrations of the medication in the scalp and lower systemic concentration. Not perfect, but better.

About 2% of finasteride users experience these side effects, and they are reversible after discontinuation.

Apparently some users report persistent side effects even years after stopping the medication (post-finasteride syndrome).

nerd-fanboi proposal: Articles by national treasures (like Derek Lowe, Raymond Chen) should be highlighted with specific identifiers on HN - like a distinctive title font or an ascii diamond ◊.

No thanks. Social media needs less hero worship. Just RSS whoever you like.
