    Pilox launching

    I think the device tries to incorporate several modes of action: dermarolling microcurrents copper/zinc ions LLLT Maybe their reasoning when deciding on building and selling this was as follows: "Ok, we have several potential modes of action which can be built into a device, some of...

    Confidence Explained for Bald People

    We all know these sarcastic "just be confident bro" posts, which refer to the advice given to many hair loss sufferers to "just be confident". This advice is perceived by many to be useless and mockery. But is it? This post will give a small introduction into the social mechanism that is...

    A tall husband may be the key to a happy marriage

    Speaking mathematically, looks are the "necessary condition", the "necessity", whereas other factors such as value compatibility are the "sufficient condition", the "sufficiency". You need certain minimum looks to get the foot in the door, but looks aren't sufficient to keep the relationship...

    Bernie Sanders for president?

    Well, he won't win. Guess why? Because he will be declared a "communist" or a "socialist". It doesn't matter that the US-American public has no idea what communism or socialism actually is - anything that's only social is declared socialist. Health insurance for everyone, like the rest of the...

    Can't believe I'd ever be saying this to you, hellouser, but: Great job you're doing there.

    How long does finasteride lower DHT for after stopping the drug?

    A single dose lowers DHT significantly for 4 days (and a little bit for another 2 days, until production has caught up completely again). After continued use over several months, DHT should be back to normal after 2 weeks.

    Pilox released: The Cure?

    I was just about to ask the same thing, so you will be getting a stash of money there for buying these devices for us (in case you're up for it). Drop me a PM if you'd be in. With the surplus you can maybe afford your own ;)

    Replicel Phase II in 2015!

    Are you sure they are already recruiting for the RCH-01 trials? I also signed up as an interested party and I live close to one of the test sites, but haven't been contacted unfortunately. Well, who knows what their inclusion criteria are.

    Study on male pattern baldness vs AA - on miniaturisation

    whatevr, would you elaborate or do you have links to sources? I have not stumbled upon a final conclusion on that yet.

    New topical drug for male pattern baldnes by dr christiano

    @Renee1: Indeed, I did not read carefully. Sorry. We had a flood of JAK inhibitor threads one year ago when the status still was that they don't help, but some people didn't understand the difference between AA and Androgenetic Alopecia. Seems to have changed, so you're right.

    Pilox released: The Cure?

    Can this already be bought in Israel? If so, are there any Israeli users here? I'd be willing to pay a small surplus for forwarding that thing to me (in addition to the actual price, obviously). Or does anyone know when it will be shipped to the EU, too?

    Cancer drug could fight hairloss

    We were discussing JAK inhibitors already one year ago. As of now, there is no indication that they will work for androgenetic alopecia/male pattern baldness at all.

    Kerastem Receives Conditional Approval from FDA for Alopecia Trial

    Are there more testimonials and photo evidence of this working? 10,000 EUR is a stack of money. If there was real proof of this working I'd go get it, though.

    Pilox released: The Cure?

    Any news on this, either from the Israeli user who is testing or regarding availability in the EU? As I said, I'd be willing to buy, try and document.

    New topical drug for male pattern baldnes by dr christiano

    You should read more carefully. The article says "baldness (alopecia areata)", not "male pattern baldness". JAK inhibitors aren't exactly news, their efficacy has been shown for other forms of baldness (alopecia areata), but not for Androgenetic Alopecia/male pattern baldness so far. Doesn't mean that they won't work at all, but...
