zix without p5p isn't zix : p

 

[EndlessPossibilities]

Sounds good man. Please keep us posted.

For how long have you been taking finasteride?

1 year. When I get off at 5 I’ll be sure to create the mix and get started.

Yes mate i know, but couldn't find p5p yet. If I use only zinc for now, would it do any harm?

So what's the conclusion on Zix blocking DHT? Does it block it or not?

There surely is a point, it's clear that chances are lower of side effects if you use topical fina.

Look around here, many people who had side effects orally, do not have them topically BUT yes you can still have the same side effects with topical fina.

Still I would never advise topical fina as a first means to fight hairloss.

I hate to take the thread on a tangent, but why do you not advise topical fina (just to check, fina is finasteride, right?) as the first means to fight hair loss? I know there are potential sides, but the general impression I've gotten on the forum is that whatever you do and however much hair you regain it's gonna be temporary if you don't get on F. Do you think that's right?

@Pigeon you gonna like this study from 2k17

Role of Non Androgenic Factors in Hair loss and Hair Regrowth

Some interesting stuff there, thanks for posting.

Also, notably, it was written by a hair transplant surgeon. So, a guy undermining his raison d'etre with this.

I saw someone talking about adding copper to zix since it inhibs ar II.

What do you think guys?

Topical finasteride is bullshit, it will causes the same sides as oral. 0.05 mg finasteride is sufficient to nuke dht by 60%..

Never change the formula

 

[Hardekz]

I stoppzd minoxidil due to side effects, and microneedling alone isn’t enough. Is it possible to buy a finished Zix lotion ?

Go to your local pharmacy and give them the composition

 

[Dhoward1]

Anybody using with higher degree etil alcohol? I am using %96 and pretty satisfied with it so far.

 

[EndlessPossibilities]

My formula is

- about 45 mls 70% ethyl alcohol
- 9x 220 mgs of zinc sulfate
- 450 mgs of b6 p5p
- 135 mls distilled water



Wish me luck just sprayed on first coat

will be taking copper occasionally to counter zinc toxicity possibilities

 

[Mustang]

Any updates on this treatment guys?
Did it work for anybody?

Did it do anything for you?

zinc alone is for hormones regulation, and its effect is dose dependent

 

[badhabiz]

i would use copper (not occasionally), because of its effect on collagen synthesis and zinc metabolism

Someone in another thread posted a link to this https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0022202X1542127X and said that zinc inhibits 5ar1 while copper block 5ar2 so copper should be a better option. Though I'm unsure if anyone's already tested something similar to zix but with copper instead.

 

[Sebcar]

Does any one find extreme itchiness after applying zix?

 

[badhabiz]

This is a very interesting study:

The analysis of each group showed that all groups of hair loss had statistically lower zinc concentration, but not copper concentrations.

yes, it is, thanks for reading.
i think copper's still a big player in hairloss fight because of its collagen and (hormonal) action, so its a valid ally for the peolpe who use minoxidil in every form or medications that tend to alter hormonal profile (this time along with zinc and boron)
despite the fact that there is no direct link between hairloss and copper concentrations in adults

You can just add copper to the mix
It's probably going to cost you 5 bucks extra
