The best way is to use a coffee grinder to grind the flax seeds adn then sprinkle on your food. Use about 1/4 cup daily, which should yield about 180mg of something called SDG which is contained within the hull of the seed. It is that which has the benefit for male pattern baldness, not the oil itself. Although...

Can anyone of you testify is effectiveness/non effectiveness. I know it's really cheap to make so it would be a great product if it works with very little sides.

Dunno - but it can't hurt to try, can it??? I tried finasteride and it screwed with my head I tell you. I was off the planet about ten days into taking it - recurrent deja vu sensations and a general vagueness. I couldn't get off it quick enough, hence - I'm back to the untried and untested. I may give...

Of course I know the difference!!!! I was responding to a previous posting in the thread where aomeone was talking about the efficiacy of topical Saw Palmetto!!!! Thanks for the link however!!!! :lol:

Where do you get saw palmetto in a form that you can apply topically??? I know products like revivogen contain Saw Palmetto but it's damn expensive, so I assume there must be a way of making it yourself?

I did forget to mention when I posted this that my sister has Systemic Lupus and about ten years ago lost a large part of her hair at the front during a flare up. She was told it probably wouldn't grow back, but after a chinese practitioner - through the aid of acupuncture and scalp stimulation...

It has done exactly the same to me. I have only been on it about 10-12 days. I've had to stop. I was feeling really out of it and a just weird, basically. The nut-ache didn't bother me a bit, but I just felt weird to the extent that it was a little scary. Couldn't focus my mind completely and...

How many of us are using finasteride without their doctors knowledge or prior consultation? I know it's not the most sensible option but, like many, I buy the generic version. I have never discussed my intention to use it with my Doctor prior to using it. Any others in the same boat?

Personally - I use the 5%. Yeah it does get a bit messy, but I have a short cut so it's not too much of a hassle for me. Give the 5% a go - not much to lose really!

Ok. A few hours in and nothing too bad, although I defo feel a bit spaced out, just a little, but definately there. Nothing else to report though. I don't feel like I'm turning into an alien. Tyler, you're right about looking for sides. I'm actually more aware of my body and it's...

It's taken me ten days to pluck up the courage to do it. I just though sod it and popped the little bugger. I'm more than a little apprehensive. Need to thicken up the crown area and see if anything can be done with the temples -although, funnily enough - they've never really bothered me THAT...

Thanks for the advice guys. A couple of you mention flurodil. Is it available yet?? Also, as a musician, vanity is a big part. I'm 35, but look a alot younger, bar the hairloss. I really know I should have started treatments earlier as I'm at about a Norwood 3-4. But need to do something. It's...

It certainly makes for interesting reading. I really think the immune system, brilliant as it can be is also still fundementally flawed. It's not uncommen for the immune system to turn on it's host - the disease Systemic Lupus is a case in point. Immunology is probably where the next...

Tynan - I see you're on finasteride. Did you get any side effects???

My first ever batch of generic finasteride tablets arrived this morning. I'm staring at them, can't quite pluck up the courage to take one, hearing all kinds of side effect stories and the thought of growing man boobs. What is the real liklihood of any of these?? Man, why did I have to start...
