Interesting snippet from drproctor.com

Organ rejection drugs ( e.g., cyclosporin ) reverse balding better than antiandrogens. This gives a rough indication of the relative importance of hormonal verses immunological factors in maintaining the balding state. Conversely, cyclosporin and similar agents may also have a "phenytoin-like" action on follicles which induces hair regrowth, separate from their immunosuppressive properties.

hmmm.. there has been talk of supressing the immune system to help with hair loss for quite some time now.. I wonder why Dr. Proctor doesn't have these types of drugs for sale on his website and didnt dr. lee test out this type of treatment and it was a failure... What do you guys think?

It is not worth it to suppress your immune system. If you do that, you will be sick all the time.
