What the hell is going on with replicel

I mean this is a company that claimed it would start phase II 6 months ago. Any updates???

Last thing they said was that Shiseido is waiting for ministry approval to start trials in Japan.

Come on Shiseido, hurry up. We''re EAGER to give you our money.

I think at this point it's the Japanese health ministry that needs to hurry up and give them the go ahead.

So they could come to market in 2017??

Likely 2018 according to a very recent conversation with Dr. Naughton.

I hope no delay this time.

We must have a viable treatment/cure by 2018-2020.

A huge mistake that replicel is not a viable treatment already. Lives of many guys could have been improved

Sorry for a little off topic, but I found a sentence of their web page:

Eventually, the follicles are no longer able to function properly and they completely disappear in men, though in women the follicles usually survive in their miniaturized state.

WTF? So what is the truth? Do they really disappear? I had an impression it's a myth..

No, that is not true. The follicles will remain there, it's just that they're very small.

Follica is the real deal. cross your fingers that it turns out to work and be available soon. cause if so - it sounds like a cure.

I'm a bit worried we might be well into our 40s and still roaming forums looking for a solution.

Hello Desmond,
Do you mind sharing (again?) what is your present Norwood and
how well has your treatment mitigated your male pattern baldness?
Thank You.

Desmond_84 · May 15, 2016

Hey brother. I'm NW2 thanks to 0.25 mg of Finasteride TWICE WEEKLY. Here's the photos I uploaded on BTT today.

I'd definitely be NW4 or higher if I didn't start finasteride 4 years ago. Hope that helps in anyway

cratusg · May 15, 2016

Desmond, did you take 0.25 twice a week from the beginning or have you lowered it throughout the years?

The first year it did a bit. After about a year my body had adjusted to it. I should say though, the day I'm due for taking it my scalp does itch a bit but no shedding so far.

I take it every Saturday morning and Wednesday night.

Yes from the beginning. I don't know if I can post this link here, but if the link didn't work, google "My Finasteride Story So far" and read my story on BTT. Microdosing is our only solution at this point unfortunately as much as I hate to say it. At least for another 2-3 years.

btw, are you sure 0.25 is the best way to go?

You can see from the graph that 0.25 doesnt reduce that much DHT. With 0.25 mg it stays around 55, ng/dL, and with 0.5 it stays around 40 ng/dL. Quite a big difference IMO
