Melatonin For Hairloss Clinical Study To Support It

[-Synergy-]

Lol yeah but I’m confident a person could get about half of those ingredients in the amount the clinical studies advice to for in a single topical. Your right though, the extracts and herbs would be a pain in the @ss to break down. Any percentage of oil that you put in water needs just as much polysorbate 80 to emulsify.

I would like to add my 2 cents to this thread on topical melatonin.

But first, I am 55M, started losing hair at 16.

2 years ago started taking 0.25 mg finasteride. A year ago added dutasteride and Oral Min.

I am an NW7 and over the 2 years, I have noticed some regrowth on my crown, but hairline has not improved.

So progress has been painfully slow.

I have been realistic from the start, and I knew that if I was to start to regain some lost hair, I would first see it by a diminishing number of hairs lost when I rub my hands through my hair.

On top of losing most of my hair from the top, I have also experienced significant thinning on my sides.

Just running my hands through my side hair I would typically get 30 to 50 hairs per day, just on one side.

No treatment I have ever tried has in any way reduced this loss from the sides.

But about a month ago I noticed an old bottle of liquid melatonin that I purchased for some purpose (not sure why) over the past 2 years.

So after previously trying topical min, topical finasteride, estro, spor, CBD oil, LLLT, microneedling, et al to reduce lost hairs specifically from my sides, I gave liquid Melatonin a go.

Results?

Well, this is not a scientific study, so I can’t claim cause and effect, but the day after I applied liquid Melatonin on both my sides, I have only been able to drag out 2 hairs in my repeated hair pull tests over 2 weeks.

This is the first time in almost 40 years that I have run my fingers through the side of my head, and have seen no hairs in my hand.

I have applied this liquid 4 times in 2 weeks, but this cessation in hair fall out still remains.

It may be worth someone repeating this to see if results can be replicated.

I think you'd run into solubility issues unfortunately

you run into cytotoxicity and lack of any information about correct dosage

Also there are hair serums that have a bunch of those ingredients in them anyway

Take before and after Photos and continue

Whats the Brand or Dosis?

 

[RStGeorge]

I typically apply 1 spray on each side of my head, primarily on the sides only. It doesn’t leave any grease or residue and in fact seems to thicken the feel of my hair.

I put 60mg raw melatonine in my minoxidil since 3 years.

Im not sure about melatonin cause it inhibits aromatase

Topical Melatonin study

5 clinical studies on Melatonin and Androgenetic Alopecia

 

[jake_b]

mike im not going to argue with you. i tried it and it didnt work. its a gimmick/snake oil/bullshit. if you want to waste money on it gooooooooo ahead. studies dont translate into real life. thats the problem with you forum users, you guys ask for feedback if product x works, ppt give their honest feedback that it doesn't work, and then you guys try argue for why it should work in theory. move the efff on

1% topical is like 300x higher concentration than what was used in the studies. Often times more isn’t better.

Why is this considered an invention? It seems to simply be a blinded study on topical melatonin on females with diffuse or pattern balding.

Thats true but 0.003% sounds like nothing but thats the dose of only one study. I guess 0.1% will probably be okay. I mean whats the matter with buying a microgram scale and melatonin as a powder for 20 bucks and mixing it with Alcohol. It should be really cheap
