Exploring The Hormonal Route. Hair=life.

Why do the boxes of this stuff always look like it's from the 80s lol

How long have you been on this regimen with 50mg bica?

I started treatment a little while ago I can't report anything yet. I'm not in it for 15 days

I was trying to diet and , keto cream, e2 oils and also with all this treatment that I had sent there that I already said in my other posts finasteride bla bla bla , but a slow and unreliable result in my body, I was afraid to insist on it for 6 months and become bald yet.

Finasteride logically increases production of T because of restriction to the receptor.

Seen this way it is safer to take finasteride and E2

However blocking the AR signal and estradiol at the same time is infertility as well.

Thanks, it's probably about right. What is interesting is that I have 2 brothers one older, one younger, my older brother has a full head of thick hair whilst my younger brother went Norwood 7 in his 20s. I didn't start balding untill my late 20s. Our individual biological identities should be similar but obviously they are not.

I see this in my family too, I have bald uncles on the part of father nw5 but they have brothers with nw0 I have 2 uncles on the part of father who are nw0 with 50 years old and the other 3 brothers of them nw5 - 6, however in my mother part everybody old is nw3-4 even 50 years old, they are bald but it is not an aggressive baldness.

Genetics ....

My brother have 190 cm and he no have baldness and I am 175 cm and have bald

genetics .....

I can't understand this sh*t.

I think we are pretty much doomed before we leave the womb.
In the 6 weeks since starting bi-estro there hasn't been any loss in labido, erection quality etc so I will carry on for now and hope the axis self regulates to some point.

Bicalutamide has been identified as a potent protease-activated receptor 2 antagonist (PAR-2)

There are many studies that address the elucidation of PAR2 function in different cells and tissues. [20] In the case of human airways and pulmonary parenchyma PAR2 is responsible for increased fibroblast proliferation [21] and increased levels of IL-6, IL-8, PGE2 and Ca2 +. [22] In mice, it participates in vasodilation. [23] Along with PAR1,

Its deregulation is also involved in processes of migration and differentiation of cancer cells

Manipulating the receiver can deregulate it, zzzzzzzz

I think genetics will say here, but that's it, that's really nuclear.

 

[tato123]

Curious and that immunosuppressive regrowth drugs usually have a chance of cancer too, damn this thing is crazy.

Everything is connected, cancer, infertility.

As if we knew how to kill the insect but we were unable to do it with a slipper, only with a bazooka, some solve the problem but it is a kamehameha on your body.


We need research in this area to be able to isolate the effects of this treatment only for the hair.
But it never happens.

Another day another head

Lol

I am waiting for blood work and another appointment with my doctor. I'm pretty sure he will presrcibe me bica (+ raloxifene).

Did you have prolactin checked on last round of blood tests?

 

[Pls_NW-1]

Did you have prolactin checked on last round of blood tests?

No! The doctors dont want to! Weird docs. I will go to an endo next week monday and will do a full hormone test.

 

[JaneyElizabeth]

Somehow the Powers' people get full work ups with prolactin, progesterone, DHT, estrone. LSH while all I have ever been given is just T and E2. My doctor is doing a seminar on zoom tomorrow night and I will see if I can request a full work-up.

@keepcoolmybabies How do you apply minoxidl with your long hair? Are you only use it on your temples? :\ And do you plan to use it indefinitely?
please i must know

Thanks for reminding me, I need to get that checked again.

Also, I cannot recall who said it (perhaps it was you), but resveratrol also reduces prolactin somewhat (as does vit E and B6).

I took too much B6 lately and it induced psoriasis (which it does if your cofactor and electrolyte levels are not sufficient to produce new skin cells), I have to be really careful how much B6 I take as it upregulates cellular growth as well.

Not the person you're asking, but you simply have to have a liquid dropper and basically gently run it right along your scalp, releasing small amounts of the liquid right at the scalp instead of dripping it on top.

My strategy is to do this, and then to massage it in at brief intervals to get optimal coverage without it mostly getting into your hair.

Does anyone have experience of topical estriol? I keep hearing that it's not strong enough. However, I've just ordered some estriol powder and I will be making my own solution. What will be an effective does with minimal side effects?

Both Tato and I did not get spectacular results from it, but for me personally I feel like it did reduce inflammation and increased cellular hydration of the skin which is better for hairloss than not.

I do honestly believe that estradiol is the sh*t that will actively induce hair growth if at all, it will also directly antagonize testosterone and work strongly at the receptor site to protect hair from the effects of androgens.

One thing, don't apply too much because for whatever reason you can get wild crazy headaches if you do, maybe that was just me and my unique medical peculiarities, but yeah, don't apply excessive amounts.

Is it possible that taking a vitamin K2 supplyment while applying topical estrogen b17 would negate feminising effects? Or would it just stop receptor binding in the follicle too?

Vitamin K2 binds 17beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase 4 and modulates estrogen metabolism - PubMed

Vitamin K is a cofactor for gamma-glutamyl carboxylase, an enzyme that is important for blood coagulation. Recent studies have shown that vitamin K has other roles, in addition to post-transcriptional modification, such as bone metabolism and antitumoral actions; these findings have indicated...

pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov

Be extremely f*****g careful with vit k2 and estrogen, the combined blood clotting could f*** you up.

And no, the simple answer is I've had virtually no extreme feminizing effects and I'm rocking straight 17b estradiol gel applied to my scalp.

Not even f*****g gyno, of all things my facial hair growth slowed down just a little but not even compared to what it was back when I was in my 30s when I could get away with shaving once every couple of days.

So people freaking out about it, no you have nothing to worry unless your liver does not metabolize estrogen quickly, and then it will build up fast, and if that's the case that means you already probably have higher levels of circulating estrogen as it is, meaning more estrogen is probably not going to help much.

What effect will one press of 0.75mg E have? Will this give any effect, or is the minimum dose 1.5mg E, i.e. 2 pump presses? In general, Bicalutamide at a dose of 100mg completely blocks androgens, so I don't think there is a need for estradiol. However, this can speed up regrowth. And then support him on Bicalutamide

Almas, Bicalutamide does not raise estrogens to high female ranges, so the hair can regrow. That´s why Bicalutamide monotherapy is not used by MtF, only for Cancer patients.


It will surely stop male pattern baldness, as long as it is taken, but I wouldn´t expect significant cosemtical regrowth on Bicalutamide + Finasteride/Dutasteride. We still need growth stimulants, and I think estrogen would be the best because then we can stop it and maintain with the AAs, but with Minoxidil, you are tied to it for ever, dropping topicals to your scalp, ew.

Almas, I think you will be great on 100mg Bicalutamide. Don´t play with hormones much, Bica is already playing with fire.
