SHE7 I trust you will be contributing more to this forum than just alarmist posts about Propecia, in the near future, right? HairLossTalk.com

Found this article interesting. They're finally testing some things that people are calling "CURES" to conditions, and finding that they really don't do a darn thing. In fact, Saw Palmetto was tested and found ineffective even for Prostate problems in a new study. We knew it was ineffective...

Anytime you see any post that is an obvious advertisement, or even a cunningly disguised advertisement that might seem legit ... please immediately Private Message me and let me know, so I can remove it. If you have any doubt as to the legitimacy of the post. If the person seems a little...

Its really quite simple. 83% of people respond to Finasteride. 17% do not. Those who don't respond tend to spend more time on forums like this, looking for alternatives. Read the studies. Don't base your opinion of a product on anonymous forum posts. HairLossTalk.com

Stop wondering and get an Estrogen test and be done with it. There is no value in sharing your opinion if you're not going to get the necessary test to verify it or not. You do more harm than good to sit here and whine. People see your posts, get paranoid, freak out, and stop taking the most...

They post here.

Why are you posting this off-topic? Did you not see the big huge text at the top of the forums saying: Announcement: * PLEASE KEEP YOUR TOPCS IN THE CORRECT FORUMS * HairLossTalk.com

Re: Demodex They do exist. We have no data whatsoever showing they cause hair loss. There are millions of "mites" on your body right now. I read once that 1/10th of your pillow's weight after 2 years is actually dead dust mite bodies ... because there are so many millions of them all over...

This contradicts the data. You would do yourself a favor to actually read the studies on finasteride's effect on an unborn baby, before you go "spreading the word" innaccurately. In the study, they directly injected something like 200 times the normal dose of finasteride, directly into the uterus...

Yes. Don't assume. Go to the doctor and have him examine. Even if he says he see's nothing, demand an estrogen test. Simple. If your estrogen levels are elevated, stop taking finasteride. Simple. This happens in very few people according to the statistics, so rather than let your brain...

Id definitely go the topical antiandrogen route instead "Balding Life". I've been doing it for quite awhile and have maintained. Fingers crossed. spironolactone Revivo Nizo HairLossTalk.com

If you have side effects on a synthetic drug, you'll likely have some side effects on a so called "natural alternative" that has some similar properties. Saw Palmetto conains Beta Sitosterol and as we have always said, people have just as many side effects on SP as they could on Propecia...

Good sign. Lets see if it keeps up to the 1 year mark. Lots of things can regrow hair or stop hair loss short term. This is why the FDA requires that hair loss trials are a minimum of 1 full year and preferrably two full years. Its the treatments that work long term that are considered...

Spoke to one of the heads of American Crew last week, and she said revitalize has been taken off the market because they are "redoing" it. I wasn't able to get any information out of her on what they're doing to it, but she said anything you see out there right now are leftovers. Maybe...
