Source on the 270 mcg/day? 270 across all forms of K2? Not all forms of K2 are the same, some are more absorbent than others.

Interesting... What led you to start supplementing with D3+K2?

Gains>Hair. The more you exercise, the easier accepting hair loss becomes. I doubt whey protein/amino acids accelerates hair loss much. Just make sure you're using a clean product from a reputable company, and you should be fine. And before you think about substituting with plant protein, do...

What would you define as "moderate"? Is there a certain D3 to K2 ratio that has been proven to be ideal? What kind of K2 (mk4, mk7, etc...) would you pair with that high a dose of D3?

Anyone know what other things have been proven to reduce neurosteroids? Maybe alcohol or something else? Is the inhibition of allopregnanolone something unique among 5ar inhibitors, or could other things potentially cause similar reduction in levels as well? Is there an argument that...

Hm... Is there any evidence that suggests doxycycline could be beneficial for hair loss? I know doxycycline is prescribed pretty regularly at 100mg twice a day for 7-10 days for a variety of things from cysts and acne to gum infections. Doxycycline, is also available at a 20mg dose (marketed as...

"We suggest that men interested in penis augmentation consider this much simpler and safer approach when they are interested in penis enlargement." A daily dose of 50,000 IU of Vitamin D3 for 6 months? Is Hypervitaminosis D and hypercalcemia just NBD?

Looks normal to me. If I saw you in person, I would not think that you were balding.

1. How exactly does Finasteride lower neurosteroids like allopregnanolone? Is it through the inhibition of 5ar enzymes, or through the subsequent lowering of DHT? 2. Do women, in general, have lower levels of neurosteroids than men? 3. Do you think some brains are able to successfully adapt to...

So it's pretty evident that Lebron had a hair transplant, but do you think he takes Propecia as well?

Does anyone know where I can find information regarding the market price of finasteride across pharmacies? For example, Sams Club vs Kroger vs Walgreens, etc... Also, how much more expensive is generic propecia (1mg) than generic proscar (5mg)? And, I know Walgreens stocks the Teva generic of...

@ antman -- thanks for the thorough information. I have decided to start with one of these: - Gaia Herbs Adrenal Health (Mainly because I am a sucker for the positive reviews on amazon, but this one includes many ingredients like ashwagandha, rhodiola, holy basil, schisandra, and wild oats) -...

I have diffuse thinning. I also have high cortisol levels (blood test). Here's the thing: I know what I should be doing to systemically change how I respond to stress. (Meditation, Exercise, etc...) But for the time being, I could use a kick-start/helping hand that could help either a) inhibit...

Full disclosure: I started minoxidil for the first time two weeks ago. And I'm only using it on the temple/hairline region. What do you mean by "fully hydrated scalp"? -- What's the best way to hydrate the scalp? Emu Oil? I just know that coconut oil makes my hair very greasy/weighs it down...
