    Any Opinions On Topical Mixtures (minoxidil, finasteride, Etc)?

    I see. I have some finasteride sitting around I never got the courage to take so I'm wondering if I could crush that up and add it to my minoxidil.

    Any Opinions On Topical Mixtures (minoxidil, finasteride, Etc)?

    I have been following H&W's topical a little and it seems promising but I don't believe it's in the US yet :/

    Any Opinions On Topical Mixtures (minoxidil, finasteride, Etc)?

    I was curious about buying the Minoxidol lotion they have on Medical Wellness Center. I'd probably get the 12.5% minoxidil that has .1% finasteride. It also has progesterone .25% which I'm curious about. They have a lot more mixed in too. Has anyone ever tried these kinds of lotions and what were...

    God Help Me. Lichen Planopilaris? Permanent Hairloss?

    Been a member for about a year or two. Long story short, I have diffuse hair loss and I never got a confirmation if it was definitely Androgenetic Alopecia (though I believe I have some extent possibly) but I came across pictures of Lichen planopilaris related hairloss and my scalp looked incredibly similar...

    Swollen Lymph Nodes? Is It From Androgenetic Alopecia Or Treatments?

    I've been dealing with swollen lymph nodes at the back of my neck probably ever since I noticed my hair loss. Could this be related to using minoxidil (lipogaine) or keto? I read that if the back of neck lymph nodes are swollen, it's a sign of a scalp issue. I have diffuse hair loss and I'm not...

    Patent Ca2516621c- Creatine For Hair Growth. Opinions?

    https://www.google.com/patents/CA2516621C?cl=en Forgive me if this has been visited before on this website but I found it to be interesting as: A. Creatine is dirt cheap. B. It would have theoretically zero side effects. In the patent, it states creatine compounds would be used topically and...

    Do Pain Killers Have Any Effect On Hair Loss

    I can't remember what exactly it was, but I read somewhere that Oxytocin may be of interest in hair regrowth, NOT oxycontin. Not entirely sure if oxycodone (common, strong painkiller) has any relation to oxytocin and I'm having difficulties finding answers on Google due to it mainly bringing up...

    How Likely Is It That Circulatory Issues Cause Hair Loss?

    I recently found out that I do indeed have circulatory issues, but I'm not sure the likelihood of it contributing to hairloss. My hair loss is best described as lowering hair count with shedding. I haven't noticed any thinner hairs except maybe at my hairline, but I have little or no...

    Question: Would It Be A Bad Idea To Use A More Aggressive Treatment For This Level Of Hairloss?

    I have the lingering thought of what if the minoxidil solution would give better results than lipogaine. Who knows, I guess I'll give it 3 or 4 more months and if there's no further progress or if I notice loss I'll make the switch immediately. I did just have to go on about a months break due...

    Question: Would It Be A Bad Idea To Use A More Aggressive Treatment For This Level Of Hairloss?

    I have been using Lipogaine 2x a day for about 8 months now along ketocanazole shampoo and taking biotin. I am not willing to take oral Finasteride as I already experience some ED at age 21. My hairloss is best described as being moderately thin throughout my entire scalp with no hairline...

    Hair Transplant Consultation: My Unfortunate Experience

    Before I start I'd like to mention I went there to help diagnose my hair loss not to get a hair transplant yet though I found out my back donor area hair is good if I ever decide to get one. Does this sound like a normal experience? They took pictures as soon as I got in there. Then I met with a...
