Exploring The Hormonal Route. Hair=life.

[sg2000]

Most likely yes. When I was taking 25 mg of bica EOD I had less hair on my body and even on my beard. Now that i stopped it for a month already, I am getting hairy again.

There is a study that shows it. https://www.jaad.org/article/S0190-9622(21)02738-9/fulltext

''All patients commenced bicalutamide at a dose of 10 mg. The mean dose of bicalutamide that reduced hypertrichosis was 14.4 mg (SD, 5.25 mg). The use of concurrent bicalutamide permitted an increase in the mean daily dose of minoxidil to 2.2 mg (SD, 1.67 mg) without development of hypertrichosis.''

''Oral bicalutamide appears to be beneficial in mitigating hypertrichosis caused by minoxidil in FPHL patients. Daily bicalutamide (mean dose, 14.4 mg) both reduced hypertrichosis and permitted an increase in the mean dosing of minoxidil by 0.7 mg/day without further hypertrichosis.''



As you can see per studies 14.4 mg is enough to reduce the hypertrichosis, so 25 mg EOD would be 100 mg a week and 14.4 mg ED is 100.8 mg a week so as you cant really take 14.4 mg the best bet is to use 25 mg EOD, which due to bica's half life it will be very similar than taking 14.4 mg ED.

let me know if you’ll ever recover with your new and consistent regimen

Even tough it doesn seem to be guaranteed im gonna give it a try and that would be my last.At least im gonna have that peace of mind that ive tried everything i can for my hair.If after 1 year im still losing ground i will stop everything!

That is what I did, the fact that I tried everything makes me less anxious of going bald

Same here. At least I tried the standard hairloss treatments, high dose dutasteride with high dose oral min and it didnt do JACK sh*t. So I feel hrt wouldnt be much better for me. Also I reached my limit with hairloss treatments. finasteride has already given me permanent weak ejaculation from a big shooter. Hrt would mess me up permanently 100%. I wouldnt mentally handle growing tits or see my male body change in any way. I feel male and love the male body so much that I wanna lick a man all over with my tongue.

Yeah I think it wouldn't be worth for you, the bad stuff outweights the benefits in your case, if you want to remain flat chested you rly shouldn't touch estradiol, since it will alter your nipple shape and you will start to accumulate fat on chest area 100%. It is not even a possible side effect, it is one of the very few stuff guaranted with hrt, even if you take meds like raloxifen you won't prevent chest grow 100%

did you had oily scalp before hrt?Has hrt solved it?

I didn't but hrt should help with it since you are gonna lower androgens in general.

Tbh this 4141 clown dont even belong in this thread. Hes a full blown transexual for gods sake and the ONLY trans here that is currently active. This thread is for cis males that want to improve their hair with alternative treatments. Heck even the OP is straight and even ended his hrt journey. If I was admin I would ban this freak of nature. Stay on your tranny reddit threads and dont come back here.

shes retarded i would kill him

bro im going on e2 and spironolactone sooon

 

[exwhyyou]

On that note, I upgraded by bica dosage from 12.5 to 25mg today… will report back my experience

f*** this sh*t im back to 12.5

 

[exwhyyou]

25mg bica on top of proper e2 injections makes ur skin good but gives you michael jackson face almost and thins hair out. i wonder if @Adri23 problem comes from him taking 25mg every other day as opposed to 12.5 daily. the 25mg dosage all at once may be hard on the liver or inherently start ar upreg somehow

Exactly. It made my dht to spike as well. I stopped it entirely. I havent taken it for an entire month and things got worse but I think my receptors must be hypersensitized after a year and 6 months on it.

25 mg daily with castrate levels of T is just poison

 

[Adri23]

I've been warning this for a long time and ppl thought I was crazy but it happens to more ppl

 

[exwhyyou]

i mean poison is going a bit far, i think you had a particularly bad reaction. since ive done this experiment twice now, i can say 25mg bica reacted exactly the same both times, with mogger skin and the hairline/partline gains getting fukkd. i expect the hair to improve within a few weeks on 12.5, just as it did last time, as well as more temperamental skin but whatever.

2nd day pf taking 200 mg spiroo so excited

In my personal opinion (not everyone has to agree with me) I think one of the best treatment for Androgenetic Alopecia is estradiol injections, dutasteride at 2.5 mg or more and minoxidil. dutasteride at high dosage already inhibits like 80-90% 5ar1 and 98-99% 5ar2 so you would be left with castrate levels of T which shouldn't be a big issue.

 

[Adri23]

In my personal opinion, my skin was getting oilier when I stopped bica and was on daily 0,5 mg dutasteride, but after 3-4 weeks on high dosage dutasteride my skin started to fix. I did a blood test after and my DHT was 3.5 ng/dl.
