spironolactone?

[Goldee Lox]

What's the scoop on this S5 cream? Is topical spironolactone effective at all?.. Looking into topicals other than minoxidil..

 

[Digidako]

spironolactone definitely has its place, albeit proving more beneficial in combination therapy with minoxidil and finasteride

It seems interesting.

I use it. It's slowed hairloss, not stopped it. Very minor regrowth.

What other topicals do you use?

Edit: I always forget about the "view my regimen" tab... How do you know it's not the minoxidil helping a bit instead of spironolactone? Or vice-versa. Hair loss proves to be a tricky equation :/

Exactly, there's no way to pinpoint one treatment, especially for us guys that are on multiple things. Best is to look at studies where the efficacy has been proven with subjects that are on one medication only.

I use Minoxidil and castor oil as well.

Any more opinions on this?

Lol i've been using it for months (topically). No sides to report, erections as hard as thor's hammer. Sexual desire as robust as an elephant in musth.

Orally might be a different matter..

Thinking about using it topically.. even if only slightly beneficial to my current regime.

Go for it goldee lox, if you're using finasteride and minoxidil, adding S5 might be even more beneficial for you.
