Been on CB for like 5-6 months at 7.5% twice a day. So far, hair has receded a little in the temples, which was the target area. No sides though. Overall, not going to be enough for my situation so I'm looking into dropping CB for topical SARMs (10mg s4) and run blood work to see if I get...

What is the difference in number of subjects between the 'optimal' group and the 'everyone' group?

On my third week of 7.5% BID CB. No results yet. Only applying to my hairline and monitoring very closely waiting for new tiny hairs to poke through. How long until I can look super close at my hairline and see the start of new growth? I know everyone says wait 6 months at least for...

At that quantity I would be worried about degradation. Does someone with more familiarity want to chime in and talk about degradation of powder in the freezer and degradation of solutions in the fridge?

I know you've tried RU and haven't had success with it. What is your experience with CB? Any other treatments I should look into? I'm currently taking oral castor oil, not doing much for me yet but it's only been 2 weeks. I'm just trying to stay away from anything that messes with my quality...

That makes complete and total sense to me. Thanks for the response. On a side note, what do you think the best chance of combating hair loss is currently without any femanizing side effects? a.k.a. no dutasteride/finasteride. And what treatment do you have the most faith in for the upcoming few years?

https://files.constantcontact.com/c2fa20d1101/e58ed57e-a02c-4bd1-a0b1-7e8f3c61d368.pdf From the article: CB binds with 100 times weaker the DHT. This is the reason why the results suck. The binding affinity sucks and can not compete with DHT at the androgen receptor level.

Where did you get your CB? Can you post before/after pictures? What has been your protocol, mixing, vehicle, storage, ext? General experience with Norwood and shedding?

You are right and I still stand by what I said from the beginning. I think the current hair loss treatment pipeline is a complete joke. I have started multiple threads about different chemicals, and I am still adamant that the CB studies show terrible results. We are no where close to any...

He has posted pictures. Things got worse for him on CB. I don't know why he is still praising it. I bought CB for myself and took tons of before pictures to compare to in lots of different lighting and angles. Everything is still in shipment but I will hopefully start treatment this week...

Seriously just ignore all these clowns. If you think you have hair loss, you probably do. Pictures don't really do things justice a lot of the time. Trust your own judgement. My CB is currently shipping. I'm hoping my results are better than what people have reported so far. It's a shot in...

How often did you make batches? What was your storage like?

There are studies. Most of them are weak though. It seems that (needling + minoxidil) > needling > minoxidil. I've been needling alone for about 2 months now with no topicals and if anything my hair has gotten worse. I would advise you looking into the needling + PGE2/PGD2 approach. Seems to be...

Strong enough to thicken up thinning areas and stop further miniaturization long term.

Awesome. I didn't know if grabbing a bag of powder straight out of the freezer and starting to mix it was advised. That's what i'll do.
