It is basically black powder if I'm to put it honestly. Re toppik being cheaper, here in India it is 5-6 times more expensive so even though I can afford it. The opportunity cost is high.

I believe you're going to have great results (=completely like before you started losing them). Ein got his results after 5-6 months and you're already having awesome results after about 36 days on bica.

I believe Ein was having results earlier than that, within the initial months, but didn't notice the hairs until they grew longer. It would be the same case for others who have a great baseline. Since my hair was that bad, growth can be noticed rapidly.

Will it make my hair feel hard? I like playing with my hair during the day... That’s my biggest fear, having helmet-hair
Toppick is actually quality. I play with hair all the time especially when I’m bored at work. And it doesn’t come out. It does get under your finger nails. And your hair does get a bit dry but the scalp doesn’t dry. I posted a picture of my hair the other day. I have toppick in there.
You can shower and go swimming with out it coming out. Even when my hair is soaking wet and it dry it with a towel it still looks like real hair. Although it some of it will come out.
If you go on toppick website you can buy a small tester pot. For like £5 or something like that. Because the last thing you want is the wrong colour haha.

Feeling sad about my hair today... I know it has only been fourteen weeks, but the results I am seeing aren’t as great as I expected... I thought there would be more growth occurring, but there isn’t... When I do a middle parting, it looks horrendous. I guess I will wait eight more weeks, and if there isn’t an evident improvement then I will increase my dosage of estradiol to 4mg/day.

Estrogen isn't a growth stimulant - in fact, there's not enough/convincing evidence that it has any direct effect on Androgenetic Alopecia. That enough MTF hasn't gotten back all their hair is sufficient proof. But that's your choice.

If I was in your shoes, I would add minoxidil either topical or oral. Or would up my dose of bica to 100mg. But your life your choice. (you see Anxious Andy, Obsessive and others tried estrogel with absolutely no results.)

Well it has only been 14 weeks after all, in the 3 1/2 months you've been on it your hair seems to have improve quite a lot, keep in mind that it took @bridgeburn 2 years to go from bald to a full head of hair. it does take at least half a year to assess the real results of the treatment, so don't stress out okay, it's improving and it will continue to do so.

Within six months or so, Bridges density was extensive. If you check page thirteen on this thread, and scroll down to the bottom, you can see his progress at that point. It's just making me sad, along with this horrible breakout in 'acne' (it's more so a skin infection) I got from laser hair removal yesterday... Why couldn't I just be born Asian?! :(

Dude, there's homeopathy written there so it'd obviously be fake. If you went to him despite knowing that he is a homeopath, then you are stupid.
And please, stop posting these things here in this thread - it's irritating.
Yes. My fault. The reviews were good all over the net. That is why I do not want anyone else to get duped by not just this but any sort of scam. I know, I should not be posting here. But the fraternity here is close knit and supportive.
Anyway, wont post no more here. Apologies. :(

for Most of the people it takes 7-8 months for the medications to start working.

i am a 26 year-old male lost testicles 3 years ago, and i began to notice my hair loss when i was 17, and i apply kirland minoxidil at the same year,i kept my hair for 2 years, then i add India finasteride once daily, but finally it began to fall again,i felt so upset, lost confidence. so i searched online to find a way to solve this, finally i found a person used Cpa and E and cured his male pattern baldness from Nw4. It really inspired me, and my hair loss is not obvious, it should be easily to control,so i tried to contact him, and luckily he replyed me, i began to add spironolactone 6*20 mg daily, took oral E2 2mg each day, also with rogaine foam twice and finasteride 5mg. It worked indeed, i got all my hair, though i noticed hairs shed more sometime maybe it caused by seasonal changes or changed shampoo. I added medicine dose for worrying it happens again. I used oral Cpa 50mg e2 4mg, dutas 0.5mg ,and applied e2 gel, rogaine foam on my scalp and i couldn't stop this for the good result 'cuz i know it would happen again when u drop them for ur genetic inheritance. i was also afraid of my body health, i think i couldn't take the medicines long term, thus i decided to cut off my testicles because we all know that eunuch could never be bald.And after i did that, i found i was still worried about it.now, i still take medicines,apply the oily solution or gel on my scalp, once i find some medicines maybe useful, i would buy and add the to my regime. so i added ru58841, bima ,ceti.nobody thinks i am bold, i have all my hair, however i always feel unconfident for my hair. so male pattern baldness is totally a mental illness for me.

Are you encouraging castration to fight hair loss? Are You trying to increase your population by this kind of post? Hair loss is better than no balls and after the castration you will never be able to live a normal life again. Get a life you stupid moron.
i don't think it is a proper way to cure baldness, as a matter of fact,one could not select this extremely harmful way to beat male pattern baldness,just as ur words " Hair loss is better than no balls".i totally agree with u , i just told what i did and my opinion.

You are/were using 400MG; surgical castration is significantly safer than that. I don’t think you should be giving your opinions, sweetie!

I remember seeing you on that other thread of this man who was using only 6mg/day of estradiol! I think you cut off your testicles at home...

If you already have a great baseline, you won’t notice the results until the hairs grow longer which can take around six months. If you are at a baseline similar to mine, or bridges, the regrowth can be seen more evidently at around the two month point.

[UPDATE] I received my hormone blood-work results.

Testosterone: 4.7 nmol/L (with the normal male range being 8.6 to 29.0 nmol/L)
Estradiol: 719 pmol/L (with the normal male range being 41 to 159 pmol/L)

After receiving this information, I can gather that my testosterone levels are significantly lower than the normal male range; although they are slightly higher than normal female ranges. Furthermore, my estradiol levels are significantly higher than the normal male range; they are within normal female ranges.

Within transgender women, the goal is to have estradiol levels within the range of 300 to 600 pmol/L. In that sense, my estradiol levels are slightly higher than the ranges which are aimed at transgender women. I can suspect this is due to the bicalutamide having a synergetic effect with estrogen.

I do have to wait slightly longer for my other hormone blood-work results, since I am not really allowed to know the results until my endocrinologist inspects them.
