That's pretty funny!
Conclusions
These finding suggest that equol has the potential to be used topically for the treatment and prevention of skin aging, by enhancing ECM components in the skin, based on the following: (1) equol stimulated collagen type 1, collagen type III and ELN (elastin) protein production, while downregulating MMPs, (2) equol increased the expression of skin antioxidants, relevant for protection against skin damage, (3) equol has the ability to restore skin’s components in a positive manner similar to 17b-estradiol by, preventing androgen’s damaging skin effects (specifically, 5a-DHT), and (4) equol presumably has an affinity for dermal ERb suggesting its association in facilitating the antiaging skin benefits of natural estrogens.
Equol also has other positive effects on the skin than just being able to bind to DHT.

Sounds good to me.
Don't start giving them ideasWhat if Fidia follows this thread and for every excited post they add $1 to the price

Why do you think that? I'm curious, not judging.Guys that are bald will still be bald after this comes out. This isnt an male pattern baldness cure and never claimed to be one. This is best case like another propecia and that being very generous to something with no tangible evidence. I think its 60/40 it barely works.
I don't think it will be bad news, I mean that's kinda messed up to say we're making an announcement this week then a couple days later say no we're not releasing it.
I'm hoping for good news, I only need this to work half as good as brotzu promised to get pretty much all my hair back.

Best case another propecia with regrowth is basically a cure for me and many people on here why are you still trying to downplay this? I'm kicking you off the train.Guys that are bald will still be bald after this comes out. This isnt an male pattern baldness cure and never claimed to be one.

People who are on finasteride are going to have the toughest decision to make. The only way to know if this replaces finasteride is by getting off finasteride. If people get off finasteride, and realize this doesn't actually maintain but is just another minoxidil... then they're potentially taking a huge hit to their current hairlines. If you just add this to a regiment that already includes finasteride, then we'll never know how effective it is alone.
I thought the same, as I'm currently on finasteride. In my case it's working. It worked for 15 yrs so far. But I'm sick of it. Want something else.
