Yep, every man loses his hair. Just to different degrees, at different speeds and at different stages in his life. I didn't think I was making a revolutionary statement there. Look at every man over 50 you see in the street.

It means you have Male Pattern Baldness. It is a natural occurence in every man.

There's nothing magical about it. You don't want to f*** around with your endocrin system during puberty. What you're giving here is REALLY BAD advice.

It's good to have Tynan back with us!

I've been off a month and I am going for blood tests today. Will let you know my results Monday.

Can't wait to smell it. spironolactone.... by Kalvin Klein

The mystery continues. Once says intolerable stink, the next says no smell at all. I don't smell anything either.

Can anyone get a hold of the full text of this study: http://www.ingentaconnect.com/content/b ... 5/art01086 The google preview seems to indicate that 3a-HSD is mentionned in the context of Androgenetic Alopecia.

This needs to be moved to another section I think. (how'd you like my BUMP excuse?) http://www.physicalenhancement.com/stor ... cts_id=155 "Dihydrotestosterone is also very open to the 3alpha-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase enzyme, present in large amount in skeletal muscle tissue[v] ...

Topic of this discussion forum is "Hair Loss" Propecia is a drug that prevents any further "Hair Loss" for most men. Conslusion: Propecia is a waste of money? Strange logic.
