"Natural" doesn't necessarily mean "Safe" from this web site. Seriously, this stuff makes me a little apprehensive: http://www.hairlosstalk.com/newsletter/article230.htm

In a clinical study, Saw Palmetto was given to test subjects, and it had no effect on their serum DHT levels. This means it didn't inhibit DHT in the bloodstream effectively like Propecia does. This is the key. As a result of this study, many have hypothesized that Saw Palmetto works for the prostate by some other mechanism than DHT reduction. Propecia and Saw Palmetto are similar in some ways, but completely different where it matters most. As such, they should never be considered "alternatives" to each other.

This Saw Palmetto dosage, where did you come up with that number?

I would drop the saw palmetto. No proof it's doing anything but some statements that it's been causing excessive shedding in some cases.

 

[juststarting]

Ya, drop that saw palmetto stuff. You're going to get serious sides from all these drugs in your body playing with you male hormones -- unless you want man tits?

THOUGHTS?

Nioxin = shampoo? If so, you can save yourself a few bucks. I used it for 13 months - a nice shampoo - but really won't save your hair.

I agree 110% with hair tomorrow. Drop the SP. The Nioxin is fluff. With the money you save from dropping both, I suggest adding in a copper peptide spray.

As a minoxidil user, I highly recommend using T/Sal twice a week, another potential add in for you.

Overall, though, you have the main building blocks covered. Nice regimen.

I agree with the man on the beach surrounded by chicks.

thanks guys, i did a little more research on saw, looks like im going to drop that tity producing sh*t, and i will be adding tricom spray...Thanks

I wouldn't neccasarily drop Nioxin. Just knoiw that it's not something that's going to prevent male pattern baldness....It's a great shampoo and conditioner though. I use their conditioner every day. Has a menthol feel to it and smells like mint. Very soothing.
