Is any one else going to try this .
I've been using this since it was first advertised couple months ago. I bought one S5 and one S5 Plus.
It's very difficult to get through your hair so I've mostly been using it on my hairline. I honestly can't say if it's working or not. Still seems like my hairline is receding some. I'm also a little bit skeptical as to what exactly in it. spironolactone may actually work but there's no way of knowing if this is true spironolactone

If you Wikipedia "spironolactone" , it does mention effects on hair loss, it also mentions sexual side effects.

I dont mind sexual sides if it can halt hairloss. I went from NW2 at 23 to NW5 at 32 now. Cant accept one more norwood. And probably I will only use it for a few years by then Tsuji or other treatment will come so a short period of sides is acceptable for me as long as it is effective.

I'm willing to spend my own money and get a batch of this stuff tested out to find out if it's the real deal. The only problem is I'm not sure where to take it. Does anybody have any suggestions on where I should take this to get a lab test done?

When males take oral spironolactone, they notice effects in the 200-300 mg/day range, just check the tranny threads. There was a guy that took this dose and posted his progress on youtube, he got regrowth but his face started feminizing noticebly, the guy really fucked his entire facial structure, he did had smoother skin though.
At hospitals I've seen a lot of patients with cirrhosis that take spironolactone, they're hair is just as horrible as other males, their dosage never goes beyond 100 mg/day. After a few years they have some boob growth.
At the end of the day, you need to take as much spironolactone to take your testosterone levels to pre-pubescent levels, as transexuals noticed.
After spending countless hours checking on the internet for Spironolactone effects on hairloss, the only people that noticed effects used it with estrogens, killed their sex and developed boobs one way or another.

I mean this stuff works, at least orally, but to get better effects than finasteride you will get sides worse than Finasteride at an even more rapid pace.

I personally haven't seen any study about spironolactone cream, and the people with spironolactone cream got some results after they added estrogens in it (estrogen goes systemic like no other) and got side effects.

Topical spironolactone is not a growth stimulant. It is an androgen blocker, in the group of treatments intended to prevent further loss.

Topical spironolactone is not a growth stimulant. It is an androgen blocker, in the group of treatments intended to prevent further loss.

Hair Loss Treatment Type:

Anti-androgen

Availability:
Prescription.

Notes:
Spironolactone is one of the most powerful anti-androgens available. It is also absorbed locally when applied topically, so it is good for hair loss treatment since it is not absorbed throughout your body. Since it is so powerful, it is not used orally due to side effects (except in women). It is not widely used since it is available only by prescription.

Claimed Results:
None.

Observed Results:
Halting of hair loss and some regrowth.
