Do not copy me. For information only.
I have general overall thinning from 15 years of impossible stress and I wished to try to thicken my scalp hair up, I also have modest recession at the frontal area.
Emu Oil, Minoxidil and the type of Estrogen called Estriol all have some part to play in scalp hair improvement. I decided to make a blend of all 3. I had to use DMSO as a solvent for the base hormone Estriol, which is otherwise rather difficult to dissolve.
Web research of home-brew attempts, showed the use of DMSO as a Minoxidil penetration enhancer was anecdotally causing terrible headaches in many, which was taken as a warning signal and caused many to give up. So I wanted to back off on the amount of DMSO I used in my own solution - I used DMSO for years, DMSO is an incredibly powerful skin penetrator/drug vehicle and only a small amount is actually ever needed.
I only use a few drops of the concentrated Estriol base-hormone/DMSO solution mixed into the 1mL of Kirkland Minoxidil and equal volume of pure Emu oil. 4 drops, supplying 4mg of Estriol per session.
I always mix the final blend fresh, just before use, in a cleaned egg cup. I dropper a couple of drops all over my scalp, massaging in. It does absorb impressively fast.
A week in, no headaches. I'll report back in due course if any hairs rise from the sleep. I never used Minoxidil or any other substance on my scalp hair before this test btw.
Do not copy me. It could cause problems, who knows, so just read for now, please.
