spironolactone 2% help!!!

[Dblbass128]

Guys

With diffuse thinning would 2% spironolactone from Dr Lee be as proficient as 5%. Or, what I want to ask is do some people with diffuse thinning have no issues with the 5% cream when applying it?

Thanks Id like to order either one today!!

I tried his 5% for 6 months and i can honestly say that this did absolutely nothing to my hair. I would look at some other products instead spironolactone. In my book his spironolactone is a snakeoil.

you say "HIS" meaning other spironolactone containing products arent... or you mean you think spironolactone does nothing and spironlactone is snake oil?

I don't know about other spironolactone products. I tried Dr. Lee's 5% cream and it was waste of my money as it did nothing for me in 6 months period. So for me spironolactone cream is a snakeoil. You can't find any real success stories with it anywhere anyway.

success stories? What would you called success story when it comes to spironolactone?
It slows hair loss, it doesnt work like minoxidil. It wong grow your hair....

So if you had the same results with finasteride (tried it for 6 months, with no noticeable effect), would that also make finasteride a "snakeoil"?

There's a very old study showing improvement in hair appearance and density using spironolactone 3%. The lotion was applied twice a day for a period of 12 months and most of the improvement was achieved between the 6th and 12th month.

I believe there may be two critical points when it comes to use spironolactone: 1) Apply it twice a day, as it degrades so quickly, and 2) Be consistent with the treatment for at least 9 months to evaluate results.

I think people who state spironolactone is "snakeoil" should report how long have they been using it and whether they applied it once or twice.

Once a day should be enough. I have read somewhere that after it gets absorbed, it works for a few hours.

I think spironolactone is underrated.
