Professor Slappy shoots down another clinical study

Nothing seems to do jack.. This has nothing to do with Omega 3, 6, etc.. Has nothing to do with inflammation.. Nothing to do with diet.. Mechanism: Researchers observed that when skin is injured, fat cells (adipocytes) release fatty acids. These fatty acids are absorbed by hair stem cells...

What does this have to do with male pattern baldness?

male pattern baldness is a complicated issue. I certainly haven’t solved it.. gyno shouldn’t be a problem after hormones are not interfered with.. I’m beginning to look further into the fat component of the scalp which can signal the hair stem cells to activate.. There’s some interesting research from Taiwan...

Pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) devices work by non-invasively delivering targeted electromagnetic pulses that stimulate your scalp and hair follicles. It’s cutting edge technology now for scalp & hair follicles.. Stimufield has a cap you wear for 30 minutes per day

I use it as directed 6 minutes every other day.. In general my hair has improved..but I can’t say it’s the laser cap.. I use a slew of other products..& am always trying new things .. I started PEMF 30 minutes a day..as well

Spirolactone which I can get easily in any form doesn’t do much of anything for me.. I have it but don’t regularly use it.. I got the pills & the topical .. but it seems it works very slowly.. & I’m not going to keep upping the dosage.. CB— I got a 60ml bottle of it at 5% strength.. & I think...

There’s something new I’m trying CB-03-01 Powder..It binds to hair follicle to block DHT..

Your overall hair is good.. But as you get older ..as a male ..hair typically deteriorates.. it’s just the way it is.. Your skin may wrinkle or sag.. So perfection is unattainable .. but for me & for you it is: what actually works & what is sustainable ..I am always learning new things & try...

It’s starting to thin at the highest point in crown.. Probably getting slightly less blood flow.Might try microneedling once a week for 15 minutes..
