I've recently given topical 17α-estradiol another look. Having just finished reviewing the literature for data relevant to its its safety and efficacy (the former being the primary concern, since most things are in the experimental stage), it appears a worthy candidate. It's a chemical that, while probably not terribly effective on it's own, might make a good addition to a good topical antiandrogen such as spironolactone or RU58841. I wouldn't use it as a standalone agent.
The question is of course: is it cost-effective? Millions of drugs work against Androgenetic Alopecia to some extent. The difficulty is in narrowing down the list to those most worth of one's time and expense. It will need to be relatively inexpensive for it to be worthy of attention. Please post source information and prices if you have them.
BTW, please do *not* use this thread to share your perceived personal experience with 17α-estradiol, or anecdotes about its efficacy. Please create a separate thread if you must do that. I want to use this thread solely to assess its monetary cost. Thank you.
