Where are you obtaining the ricinoleic acid ? I think you can do the reaction from castor oil, but easier im sure to buy it.

For you peeps running before/after blood tests on your DHT as you evaluate finasteride, note that the average DHT level in folks without finasteride is around 33 ng/dL as seen in this study - https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/7775644/ With DHT, divide nmol/L by 0.0344 to convert to ng/dL. Mine went...

finasteride raises SHBG which ultimately lowers free T. I verified with my own blood tests. SHBG goes up due to the higher E2 levels.

Make sure your finasteride is legit. Also are you on steroids/trt?

One place is https://www.snlabs.com/index.html, usually it costs less than $150. Cheaper options maybe locally to you. I did that a few times then I ended up buying a spectrophotometer from ebay to test my own sh*t.

amazing results!

Yeah hopefully they post the full results for the NGF 574 trial -- https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT03676400?term=Medipost&draw=2&rank=5 Essentially, medipost is all about umbilical cords and the materials derived from them. They have 19 studies going on with variations of them including...

That dutasteride stat came from this study: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/B9780323548250000260

But that's just the experience from that one dude on YouTube right? I agree, at this point there isn't a lot of data supporting its wide use but I won't completely discount a treatment so easily:

It's best to check your DHT levels via a blood test before/while using finasteride. I suspect a lot of the major side effects are with folks going to near zero DHT. The most persistent minor side effect I get with finasteride is morning wood completely stops if I'm on it.

Yeah, I think its lack of popularity is due to: it's a bit expensive, need to keep hair dry, not a lot of clin studies. But yeah eucapil is superior to RU in terms of safety. It degrades in water into harmless substances. Maybe after Topilutamide's patent expires, we'll see some more interest...

Well, it's a legit product from a legit medical company -- Medipost is the largest private cord blood bank and their Cartistem product on knee and hip cartilage regeneration was approved by the FDA about 6 years ago in the US (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5442809/). NGF574 also...

NGF-37 is $70 on ebay. They last me about 2 months. My current hair routine is: topical: 1ml of Sistema GB (minoxidil, Tretinoin,clobetasol), midday Sistema GB Shampoo1/2 alternating day system (shampoo 1: ketoconazole, shampoo 2: Climbazol / Piritiona de Zinc.) Laser Hat 25 minutes, every other...

I emailed ngf-574h@celino.co.kr directly and they sold me a bottle of NGF-574H before the official launch for $90 USD. I'll let folks know if it helps but it's not going to be very scientific since I'm running a few other things in parallel. I may isolate it later on depending on how things go...

I did a lot of blood tests and have detailed DHT records: Before ever taking finasteride: 41 ng/dL DHT On Oral finasteride (1mg/day) : 11 ng/dL DHT On topical finasteride (Morr-F) : 19 ng/dL DHT Off finasteride for a month: 35 ng/dL DHT
