It doesnt state how long the Mico has to be in contact with the skin before washing, for proper absorption of the active ingredient on my package, no. x

LOL< theres no instructions for applying to scalp, seeing as it's an off-label use, and there's no mention of Mico's absorption rate on the packaging. x

Thanks so much Rudimentary. As far as you can tell, does the DIY spironolactone Cream recipe above seem kosha? x

Thankyou Admin. After some more Google research ive learned that finasteride & dutasteride are prone to causing weight gain in women, due to a likely increase in estrogen, that wouldnt be an option for me!

I've found this recipe online for a homemade topical spironolactone cream:- * 3% SPIRONOLACTONE CREAM: Crush 6x 100mg Aldactone tablets to fine powder.

Can anyone suggest the minimum length of time one can leave Mico 2% Cream on the scalp before shampooing? (to obtain sufficient benefits from the Miconazole). For example, would enough Miconazole Nitrate be absorbed after 4 hours? 6 hrs? ... Or do you REALLY have to leave the Mico Cream on...

The title says it all really. Are there any DHT Blockers / 5-AR Inhibitors / Anti-Androgens that are available without a prescription? I already use Nizoral shampoo and Nioxin shampoo/scalp conditioner, but i feel i need to do more to reduce DHT on my scalp, as i believe that is the main...

There's only so much i can offer as help or advice, as im going through the same myself and havent found a miracle cure as yet, but i wanted to reach out and say you're not alone (not that that helps much!) and share with you my regime, which is evolving all the time, and has had moderate...
