Is Lipogaine A Strong Enough Dht Blocker To Maintain Hair ?

Its seems like common knowledge on here that using minoxidil alone is futile because you are not addressing the cause of hair loss and that any gains you have will eventually be lost. Lipogaine has both minoxidil as well as DHT blockers (possibly azalic acid among other things) so I'm wondering if it is capable of maintaining hair if the pattern of hair loss is not very aggressive? Does anyone else have experience with maintaining on this product alone?

I dont have much faith in the DHT blocking aspect of lipogaine. I think its mostly the minoxidil that does most of the work. You never know though its worth a try. I would just question if those DHT blocking ingredients actually work and actually penetrate enough.
A ton of things should stop DHT in theory, but in reality I never seen anything besides finasteride with any proof of results.
I tried lipogaine for a while its pretty cheap isnt it? Worth a shot IMO.

It may or may not be strong enough, you will not know until the time has gone by to see if it worked or not. Is it possible? I would say yes, because saw palmetto and beta-sitosterol are clinically proven to have the possibility to increase hair counts vs placebo. Topical saw palmetto with Ketoconazole was also clinically proven to be more effective than Ketoconazole alone.
