Hey guys, I'm sure people debate about this topic quite a bit, but what is the best growth stimulant to add, after Rogaine/Minoxidil, of course?

Options are:
1. Tricomin
2. Prox-N
3. Folligen
4. NANO Shampoo

Or anything else that you may know of. I want to add another growth stimulant to my regimen (already doing Big 3). Please let me know, thanks!

I would go for Prox-N or Tricomin.

than Rogaine? I wouldn't say they are more effective than Rogaine but they are pretty good.

My own guess is that minoxidil is more effective in the short-term, while Prox-N is more effective in the long-term.

Oh, I don't think you could compare Tricomin to Prox-N. Prox-N contains what Tricomin contains, and more.

The thing with Rogaine (minoxidil) is that it never stops working contrary to common belief. Therefore, I'm not sure exactly what you mean by "effective in the short-term."

I mean that minoxidil doesn't really stop or interfere with the balding process. Your balding continues, whether you use it or not.

I have a strong suspicion (although I obviously can't prove it) that Prox-N does more to prevent long-term loss than what minoxidil does. That comes from its SODs, and Prox-N has some powerful ones like TEMPO/TEMPOL and PBN. I think that puts it in a different class than minoxidil.

I may give Prox-N a shoot. I know people who were using Prox-N for some time and they swear that minoxidil works better.
