Polichem Topical finasteride Release Date 2018

[SkinDiesel]

Does anybody know if it’s been announced when this might be? Their phase three trials finish around Feb but no idea what this means in regards to a potential release date.

Where does it say it's finished in Feb?

Topical finasteride?
Hasn't that been around forever already?

Also, how is it different from oral? Finasteride is meant to enter the bloodstream and counter DHT. Won't do jack sh*t if you rub it on your scalp.

Please correct me if I'm wrong. I'm just some guy on the interned. WTF do I know

This doesn't go systemic. Stays local to the scalp. So significantly less chance of sides.

AFAIK, DHT is created and used on site. i.e.: on the scalp, on the prostate on the skin (?).

So, it makes sense to *destroy* / inhibit it locally on the scalp only...

Forgive me if that’s inaccurate but I’ve seen that date mentioned by numerous forum members on here and over on HLC2020

Trials end in march 2018. Study in May 2018. Check clinical trials.

Could be in the market in late 2018.

This is my understanding as well. It was Feb at one point but it got extended.

Ah, I see. Thanks for that

So does that mean it's going to be better than oral, or a good supplement to it?

Have no idea. :-D

 

[Xaser94]

So to answer the question, probably sometime after May. When exactly no one would know. The question I have is will it be available in Europe and America or just Europe.

In edge of efficiency it's the same, and it's has no sense to add topical to to oral finasteride.
It's more for those who has had some sides from oral finasteride (or didn't take finasteride because of fear of sides, lol) .

Another lame and pointless thread on HairLossTalk.com...

Are you sure about this? It doesn't circulate throughout the body?

Bruh that title had me thinking it was a confirmation of the release date.

I don't get whats there to laugh at people who refuse to take finasteride. Having a limp dick is no joke and neither is messing with hormones. A sideless finasteride with same results as oral finasteride would be a great start to 2018 if this comes out next year.

Correction, it goes systemic, in theory, in a lower %, but even so, it will decrease systemic DHT at least, in the best scenario, a 30 %.

Explain me, how a men can decrease 70 % of his stronger androgen and not get any kind of side effect. Plus the 5- Alpha reductase work in many other reaction, beside T to DHT . Thing is, the 90s theory of Mercks, telling "DHT is the devil" are simple to old and to anacronic .
