No, minoxidil isn’t addictive haha, what? I guess you mean you can’t stop it if you want to keep results, but why would you want to stop if you don’t have side effects? I had to stop unfortunately as I developed contact dermatitis… I lost the hair I regrew with minoxidil, but I was still above...

doesn’t cb lose its anti-androgen ability when it comes into contact with blood? How can there be sides?

It may have become less active on here, but then the place isn’t really actively moderated and Reddit is a more popular forum platform. I don’t think the fact that activities low here is any indication of promising treatments. I don’t agree that prospects are worse. If we’re to assume better...

It’s my understanding that all they did was lower the dosage, and the final formula used a basic carrier. Isn’t this information in the trial notes?

how watery are we talking? Throw a photo up, that might help Seriously though, no one knows the answers, that’s the deal with using research chemicals. Could you be over thinking all of this? Might be best to wait for the official studies if it’s gonna play on your mind so much.

I don’t need to Google any blog, I’ve been on the drug for 15 years. And I’ve read the studies. I’m not saying people won’t have some thinning over the years, and I do see that you didn’t say the drug was totally useless after an initial honeymoon period. My response was probably a little...

The studies don’t agree with this. Yes you can have thinning at 10 years, but not everyone will.

So why are they putting it through all the expensive trials? Are they paying someone off to show fake results? The structure of the chemical is similar to other anti androgens so it is likely going to work… can it work without side effects is the question.

Possible. Who wants the cure to be a hair transplant though?

Minoxidil is a growth stimulant, finasteride lowers the hair destroying dht, the tretinoin increases cell turnover which likely helps the product to be absorbed more quickly and the other product limits irritation. With the last two products alone you’ll likely have a very soft scalp, which will...

You wouldn’t use the spironolactone as a man edit: in fact, it’s an advantage, the resulting unibrow that you’ll grow from the minoxidil can be combed back over your head.

Why do you think it won’t work? I mean, there’s a good chance it won’t, but scams don’t usually go through clinical trials before heading to market lol.

you’re absolute trash mate. The OP thought it was racist so your “joke” fell flat. This place should be a refuge, a place where we can provide support for others, many of whom are already going through emotional destress, discrimination and alienation. To further alienate them based on their...

what the f*** is this? Totally unacceptable. What is it with this place and slurs, be it racial, homophobic or whatever? ps - OP you should work out if you wanna. It won’t affect your hairloss to any meaningful degree either way. But you will surely feel better if you’re fit and healthy. Don’t...

Can’t believe we’re still clinging on at this stage, it’s a joke. I’ve been visiting this and other forums since maybe 2004. 18 years and nothing has changed. I’m just hoping at this stage that we at least get a decent adjunct treatment, sometime soon. finasteride has been really good to me but it feels...
