I don't know how many mg per day one might use to avoid breast growth but for some people, I guess it is expensive. I am also often seeing people who state that Serms cannot be relied upon in terms of some people still ending up with breast growth among chimerical MtF's.
Oh you're German? I thought you were Canadian lol
He's an ex-pat sort of, I think.
Seeing as serms can have estrogenic or anti-estrogenic effects depending on the tissues, I often wonder which big pharma will be the first to develop a serm that targets (delivers estrogen) to the hair follicle receptors only.
That would be the perfect hair loss treatment
There is no evidence or study that shows Raloxifen having a negative effect on hair, like other SERMs
But would it work? We have baldness among estrogenic XX's already. Its hard to express exactly why but there is something about XY caucasian hormonal structure that has to be changed in order to get the really good hair. I assume most guys would trade in their beards for a full head of hair but there could be sides still. But the idea of having male skin from the eyebrows? down and female skin on top seems incongruous. The body seems likely to become disconcerted. Chicks don't grow beards and they lose their hair far less often than XY's. I think baldness in whites is akin to antlers or a lion's mane, making it very difficult to opt out of but who knows, maybe tomorrow....
You can see all of our numbers soaring. The HRT folks are carrying this site!
Lol...something for tomorrow, only speculation for now but theoretically a serm could be created which stimulates a very narrow set of cells like scalp hair follicles without changing e serum levels.
Leaving us all to worry about beards, lol? Why do I have such a crappy beard, god? I predict when they have a cure that it will be like getting veneers over bad teeth with procrastination like, "oh, whenever I have some money and can get around to it" if it is say $30,000 like veneers.
Thanks again Noah,
This is very strange and I don't know how to explain it. My skin became 3 times less oily after 3 weeks of Bicalutamide. Bicalutamide is guaranteed to reduce the binding of androgens to receptors, otherwise you would not have gynecomastia. Did you keep on going bald? This is so strange...
No I've always maintained even with dutasteride alone. I took bica because i tought it would help my temples and some density but never happened. Initially you might experience decreased sebum production but after sometime it comes back. At least that's what happened to me. I was also taking 50 mg.
Bicalutamide can make pre-existing hair thicker and thicker, but it cannot grow bald patches like high doses of E
It hurts to hear. There are examples on the forum where Bicalutamide helped a lot: Ein, Maave, DHTcel. All of them experienced thickening of their hair, an increase in thickness and even slight regrowth within six months. I would very much like Bicalutamide to work for me the same way, but there are no guarantees. I have Norwood 0.5, but severe hair thinning on the growth line, temples and parting line. I hope that Bicalutamide will increase the thickness of the hair, reverse the miniaturization, as happened with Ein, who increased the thickness of the hair.
He had diffuse thinning, still NW1, but almost bald. Did you saw any pictures of him? I miss him, he was a great member.
