Biotin? Yes? No? Maybe? Give It A Go?

[TominWashington]

Hi folks, happy Monday!

I have been on finasteride for almost four months, and I am so excited that I am seeing results (slowly, but they are there for sure). I am also using minoxidil and derma roller.

My question is regarding biotin. Do you feel that there are any observable benefits or is it just hype? I’ve read the webpages that stare that there isn’t enough research to make a definitive conclusion, but what do you think? Worth a shot? I would love to see your thoughts. Thanks everyone!

Hey man,
From my own experience i can say that biotin doesn't give you extra regrowth like minoxidil and doesn't slow down hairloss like finasteride or dutasteride. But you can easily put it in your regimen as supplement. In my case biotin made my hair stronger, maybe thicker look, my hair color become darker and it's good for skin.
But otherwise, biotin won't help on it's own as hair growth solution for balding.

Biotin will have little to no effect

All biotin ever did for me was make my hair and nails grow faster.

If you want to get supplements the only one you need is a biocell collagen.

helps your hair grow faster, along with MSM, won't do much for hairloss. Still that and MSM are good your skin and hair, i would take them.

You use the capsules or powder? Have you noticed any difference since using them?

Also biotin didn't do much for my hair. Made it grow faster and made it darker but also gave me acne.

Capsules and yes it makes your hair noticeably thicker.
