Does s5 cream works?

in the 3 p's list posted by admin appears - 1) propecia 2) rogaine 3) tricomin 4) topical spiro 5% 5) revivogen

Is this topical spiro really effective? Or is minoxidil better? anyone using both?

I would like to know the answer to this as well as I am considering topical spiro.

Though when comparing minoxidil to spiro as to whats better, well they are different, so you can't really compare. Spiro is an anti-androgen like finasteride, which is more for maintenance. Minoxidil is a growth stimulant for regrowth. I'm guessing it'd probably be best to use both.

I'm just getting into topical spiro after havin good results with flutagel blocking my androgens previously!

Also gonna supplement it with 1x per day nanominox-fms

see if i can recapture my former glory lol

And can you use both? Won't it be a mess?
I just want to know if this really work.

Rogaine is FDA approved

I apply spiro in the morning before work. Apply nanominox when i get home at 6pm and then spiro again at around 10:30pm about 30mins before bed.

I used to do the same regimen with flutagel instead of spiro and had great results.

Spiro stops DHT binding to the androgen....

Therefore , if you were to have Spiro applied to your head twice a day for 6 months , then in those 6 months you will have lost much less(don't know exactly how effective it is) of what you would have lost if you didn't have Spiro on. Therefore it is a great treatment for AGA but it is annoying to apply. The people who would get the best benefit out of it would be the people with shaved heads. One thing to note is that you will not see any regrowth from spiro unlike minoxidil and Finasteride. This is why some people claim it hasn't done anything for them.

So for those people with shaved heads applying spiro 5% cream in the morning and at night will dramatically reduce how much hair you will lose. You will still lose hair because it does not fully disable the AGA process. It would be a great accessory to use with finasteride. Now if we could get our hands on a commercial product of RU58841 then we'd be able to nearly completely halt the AGA process without any side effects.

I recommend fully using the S5 cream especially if you have a shaved head to slow down MPB, just don't expect to go any hair from it.

I have some ridiculously thin hairs that have been ravaged by DHT and I am expecting them to start thickening up due to halting the dht damage.

Why would i not see any regrowth? If i still have an active hair follicle that dht is stopping hair from growing, if i inhibit dht from binding why would the hair not grow normally?

[decro435]

I use the term regrowth as re-awakening follicles.

Since those hairs are still alive they aren't dead and therefore can't be re-awakened. When the hair has gone below the skin level and has miniaturized to the point where it no longer is visible the hair has officially gone dormant. Minoxidil can bring these hairs back.

What you can expect is some thickening , but don't expect too much since the hair follicle will still be getting attacked just at a much lower level.

[Rework24]

Is flutamide a much stronger anti-androgen then as I got some really good re-growth at my temples? I guess it could have been that the hair follices were not actually dormant and just thickened up really well.

I apply spiro in the morning before work.

Rework24, I've heard that spiro has a noticable smell. Can you elaborate on this? does it smell really bad? or just a strong scent? You say you put it on before work, I'm wondering if people notice the smell, or that its even on. It is greasy?
