I have read anecdotal reports that people on 5-alpha blockers, who stopped using minoxidil, experienced mass shedding ("almost like cancer patients"). However, all the hair regrew back, when they started to use minoxidil again. Theoretically, this should work because 5-alpha blockers prevent the...

Maybe some update would be useful: I quitted finasteride completely (in summer 2013) and switched to 0.5 mg dutasteride daily. I monitored my DHT levels and they were slowly, but continually decreasing at a rate of 10 ng/dl/year. In August 2016, I reached 7,0 ng/dl, which most patients on...

MinoxidilDirect doesn't work. You cannot order anything. The site is dead. The owner was imprisoned one year ago.

With the owner of minoxidil-direct.com in a US jail, and the new thievish charges imposed on all packages sent to EU (Since 1st July 2021), I am looking for some new minoxidil source within EU. After browsing on eBay, Amazon, and other sites, I found a website selling QGain...

I used spironolactone from MinoxidilMax in my temples. Twice, for nearly 3 months. But without success. And I also use minoxidil and dutasteride, so it was a big disappointment. When I was using it for the first time, I experienced annoying acne and I suspect that it had to something with the...

Have you measured your blood hormone levels? How can anybody give you some advice when you don't know what is happening in your body?

Most people who have side effects from anti-5-alpha reductase drugs are wackos and psychos. They have their own website https://www.propeciahelp.com where they share their fancy stories about shriking testes during defecation etc. Recently, they also seized hairlosshelp.com and persuade people...

Don't stop using minoxidil! Once you jump on it, you can never stop - or you'll lose all minoxidil-dependent hair.

I agree with you. I use 4 ml once a day with a sprayer.

I have been using minoxidil since 1996. But if I started using anti-hairloss drugs now, I would jump straight on dutasteride and I WOULD NEVER USE MINOXIDIL. It is a lifelong ordeal. And once you start to use it, you cannot stop. There is no substitution for it. It has a very different mechanism...

Nobody can tell you. But I would be very, very careful. I was using 10-15% minoxidil in my temples for 13 months, then switched back to 5% - and my hair on all places, where I had been using the high % minoxidil, was practically annihilated. This was due to the fact that it was a "zombie hair"...

Your testosterone is slightly above-average, but it doesn't matter much. DHT levels are far more important. If you experience a sudden hair loss on the whole scalp, then you most probably experience telogen effluvium. The 15% concentration is too strong for you. If you use finasteride, then it...

I turned 40 this year. I started to lose hair in summer 1996, at the age of 22. Honestly, at first I didn't believe that I had been going bald, but when it was 100% clear (in November 1996), I immediately jumped on Alpicort F (an antiandrogenic solution produced by a certain German doctor). My...
