Is there a way to see all of the posts in this thread where people have posted pictures without having to search each page manually? Very hard to see the forest from the trees. Perhaps I should get a webscraper extension.

Bueller?

Have any of you tried this? It's being touted as a second/third gen version of PRP, but there's no actual peer reviewed research on it with hair loss that I can find. Just the claims of random beauty clinics' websites. It has been shown to have possible effects with dental healing and scar...

My surgeon in Europe suggested to do PRP on a schedule of 1 month post op, then every three months after that up to a year. I asked a surgeon local to me about their PRP regimen, as I can't fly back and forth 4 times to Europe over the next 12 months, and his assistant told me they only give...

Fat around the heart is usually directly proportional to general weight and linked to excessive cortisol (ie. Cushing's, chronic stress). That's probably the linkage.

Wow talk about a resurrection. 20 years later and still scratching our heads about this. Great example of what the pace of science really looks like.

Finasteride reduces DHT about 70%, dutasteride about 95%. Neither will completely stop hair loss, but slow it and occasionally cause regrowth. Your pictures are limited because you took them from arms length with a phone, so they're going to have a fish eye effect which makes it extremely...

Caffeine in water increases androgen sensitivity, but in green tea it has beneficial effects as described. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3521899/

How are people still thinking like this in 2019? Yes, green tea increases testosterone. So does Avodart. Andrologia. 2016 Dec;48(10):1195-1201. doi: 10.1111/and.12560. Epub 2016 Mar 8. Effects of dutasteride on serum free-testosterone and clinical significance of testosterone changes. Enatsu...

Bumping an old thread to add an explanation -- garlic inhibits DHT formation in prostate cells (see below). Usualy when something inhibits DHT formation, testosterone goes up. Similar to closing an exit increases the traffic on the highway itself. DPC are not prostate cells, but they are...

It seems like there has been some progression in our understanding of green tea and ECGC over the last 15 years. Soy Phytochemicals and Tea Bioactive Components Synergistically Inhibit Androgen-Sensitive Human Prostate Tumors in Mice Jin-Rong Zhou Lunyin Yu Ying ZhongGeorge L. Blackburn Green...
