I wish just eating or drinking the fatty acid would work lol. It still kinda sucks that you gotta keep applying this topical like minoxidill in order for it to keep working. I highly highly doubt stopping entirely will make the hair keep growing like normal.
I feel you Losing but to hell with it if it works applying it topically we gon do it

While I'm here I do want to bring up a 3rd acid. And that is Valproic Acid. Valproic acid (including divalproex sodium, valproate sodium) is a prescription antiepileptic drug (AED) and mood stabilizer used to treat seizure disorders, bipolar disorder (manic episodes), and prevent migraines.

Valproic acts on the GABA receptor and ions of the brain. I bring Valproic Acid because it's been found that it can potentially induce follicle neogenisis (via wound inducing) and can stimulate the wnt pathway.

Now heres the ironic part, so just like oliec acid , valproic acid can only have a positive affect on follicles when topically! Patients the took the drug orally ( via tablets) hair loss was a thing being brought up... But when used topically it induces growth of hair.

Here's the result of a guy using Valproic Acid on his hairline via looksmax forum

But (always a but with this androgenetic alopecia thing) Valproic Acid powder is very hard to source. Valproic Acid tablets can be "dissolved" but it's hard to dissolve which the guy in the picture complained about ( still got results as we can see even though it didn't dissolve 100 percent he literally has a feminine type hairline forming using this) there's other post on the looksmaxx forum that are going to be testing it out on their hairline and other parts of their head.


A couple of the guys ordered the powder it back in February but it still hasn't arrived....

I wonder if Valproic acid works the same as the Oliec Acid.
