Hello...
So after getting tired of the sexual side effects of propecia, I want to use something else, but I am overwhelmed by all the options. I saw this on another post....
1) Propecia (2) Rogaine (3) Tricomin (4) Topical spironolactone 5% (5) Revivogen (6) Crinagen (7) Folligen (8 ) Everything else.
For a propecia alternative, there seems to be topical spironolactone, revivogen, and crinagen. Anyone have any preferences on these alternatives, or have I missed any that I should consider?
I'm also thinking of trying tricomin since it has copper peptide stuff going on, a different way of working maybe, but I've seen people saying folligen is cheaper and also uses copper peptide technology so that's one thing I need to decide on...which of those to use.
Then, as for Rogaine, Dr. Lee has a number of Rogaine products with azelaic acid, retin-a, different strengths, etc... then there is Spectral DNC. Dr. Proctor also has minoxidil formulations. I feel the 5% standard minoxidil I am using is not very effective so I'd like recommendations on what to try next on the Minoxidil front.
In summary, can someone who really knows their stuff recommend a regimen that does not include finasteride but has a DHT inhibitor, a minoxidil formulation, and one of the copper peptide products? (and anything else I may be missing)
THANKS!
Kevin
