I was and still am, although recently I’ll increased the copper dosage from .3mg to 2mg daily. I think it may be helping but either way my blood test results didn’t report any deficiency so that’s why I’m confused. There is an imbalance in the ratio between copper and zinc but other than that...

Alright, another update. This time unfortunately breaking some bad news. So my stomach issues are persisting, my blood tests are showing some abnormalities in my zinc and copper ratio, but they’re unclear to me and my doctor here in france hasn’t been very helpful in his interpretations. I’d...

The reason less people are replying is because you’re flooding the thread with questions. The best advice I can give you is to begin figuring this out yourself. There’s enough information in this thread for you to work with. No one here is doing the exact same thing because no one has an...

Quick update for those interested. I think I actually got a stomach virus and my symptoms were stemming from that and not the zinc. Even still I’m continuing with a lower dose. There’s been no change in my hairloss, zinc is still doing it’s job for me. Although, I’m still interested in figuring...

Ssri’s don’t fix anything dude. I studied psych for my ba degree and trust me all your doing is using a legal drug to modify serotonin’s availability. It’s not a long term solution, you might feel better for a short time, but slowly your brain will be inured to the drug and it won’t be effective...

96% I’m pretty sure. I’ll check tomo

Don’t worry zinc is absolutely harmless. It takes an extremely long time of exposure to high zinc to be in danger. It’s literally a trace mineral. Yeah 50mg zinc (from zinc 220mg hepatahydrate) whatever that means. Literally using ‘PlusPharma’ capsules and on the back of the bottle it says...

Nothing serious, just tingling hands and feet and a slightly upset stomach (for like 5 mins thought I was gunna get sick). Normal sides for excess zinc. If you research online you’ll find a lot of people have had these from just taking it as a supplement (nothing to do with hair). Zinc clears...

Actually no, I made a mistake when I said that earlier on. 1800mg is an insane amount of zinc (heptahydrate version). I’m using 50mg capsules and adding them to my 70/30 mix of isopropyl alcohol and propylene glycol. The reason I thought it was 1800mg because on the bottle the description says...

Yeah have that also just using the capsules that were originally recommended first before moving onto the pure heptahydrate. And yeah minoxidil dropper

I think there’s rice flour or something in it that doesn’t dissolve but I’m not entirely sure. I just shake the bottle really well before applying.

Also, what’s your experience with zinc?

And no side effects from zinc. My libido has completely returned and performance is back to where it was pretreatments.

Yeah the vehicle of the original zix is weak no question. Most topicals available for hairloss use strong alcohol concentrations so obviously it makes more sense sticking to what’s tried and true. And yeah side effects with all of them. Limp with finasteride, dutasteride, fluridil, and didn’t like feeling out...

Interesting. After how many years did you start losing ground? And have you any studies or references to say that b6 is anti-dht?
