    Alfatradiol & Finasteride. Trying To Figure If Its Any Of The Same

    *If* it affects DHT levels, then only in the scalp, because the a-isomer of estradiol has a very low systemic absorption/effect. But as I said before, it is unproven to do so "in vivo" and the very limited number of studies and empirical experience we have with the agent doesn't seem to show any...

    Struggling With Sensitive Scalp Issues

    In this case, all you can probably still do is to apply a topical corticosteroid, like betamethasone valerate 0.1 %, once - twice a day. It's prescription only, so you should see a dermatologist. I use it myself every now and then, it was included in Dr. Lee's Xandrox Formula in a lower...

    Guide On How To Use Minoxidil Properly?

    Can't say anything about the results, I wear my hair really short, so it shouldn't make any difference, because in both ways the foam reaches the scalp easily, but in general, a liquid is easier to apply directly to the scalp rather than getting caught in the hair where it won't do any good...

    Thoughts On The Best Topical Dht Blocker?

    Not at all. But I reduced the time I leave it on to about 5 minutes recently, because it is so inconvenient to have it on the scalp for so long. I use it now every mon, wed, fri and T/Gel on the days in between the Nizoral applications. On sunday (and/or occasionally every now and then), I use...

    Alfatradiol & Finasteride. Trying To Figure If Its Any Of The Same

    Here are some more links for you to check out. I think the alfatradiol was a german invention/discovery, so most of the information out there is in german. Try to translate the content with google etc. https://www.haarerkrankungen.de/expertenrat/faq.php?ParentRubrikID=20...

    Alfatradiol & Finasteride. Trying To Figure If Its Any Of The Same

    There is plenty of information out there concerning the biological inactivity of the "a"-isomer of estradiole, but mostly on german sites. Here is what wikipedia (english) has about it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alfatradiol Trust me, it has negligible estrogenic effects (if at all)...

    Sad. What Norwood Am I Or Appear To Be?

    Not a full juvenile hair line anymore, so no Norwood 1, but no Norwood 2 either. I'd say you're between a NW1 andf a NW2 and much closer to the 1. Nothing to worry about. Regards Kaus Klinski

    Thoughts On The Best Topical Dht Blocker?

    Why not use topical dutasteride or finasteride? Sure, it's experimental to a certain degree and we have no conclusive research on it, but same goes for all the other so called "innovations" like RU etc. 5-ARIs are (at least when used orally) proven to inhibit DHT/stop hair loss. Or just take...

    Guide On How To Use Minoxidil Properly?

    No need to massage it into the scalp at all, just apply, distribute it evenly with your fingertips and let it dry. Done. regards Kaus Klinski

    New Study: Long Term Dutasteride Is Associated With Metabolic Alterations

    I don't see any problems with that, but on the other hand, I don't think it's necessary to take both drugs concomitantly for such a long period of time. If I hadn't had the finasteride in the house anyway (and I wanted to use it up rather than throwing it away), I would have made the switch...

    New Study: Long Term Dutasteride Is Associated With Metabolic Alterations

    Nothing different with my orgasms ... but notice that I'm on high dose TRT, so my T levels are probably at least 3 times higher than yours, even though you're half my age ;-). Regards Kaus Klinski

    Neutrogena T/gel With Rogaine - Any Issues?

    Hi, can any of you more knowledgeable guys say if there is any issue (absorption wise, etc.) with using T/Gel and Rogaine together? Is using it about twice a week enough to keep itching/dandruff etc. in check? I'm planning to rotate it with 2 % Nizoral in a fashion of Nizoral on one day...

    New Study: Long Term Dutasteride Is Associated With Metabolic Alterations

    No, for a couple of weeks I took both ~1,25 finasteride and 0.5 mg dutasteride a day until a my finasteride was all used up. I lost a lot of hair during the 4 years off any treatment (between age 26 and 31 or so), but ever since starting treatment again, my hair loss has stabilized again...
