If there a difference between Proxiphen-n (sold at http://www.drproctor.com) and "Dr. Proctor’s Advanced Hair Formula" sold at lef.org? If so, what is it?

Proxiphen-N is more effective than the "formula.
Below are some quotes from the below mentioned website:
"Proxiphen-N is another Proxiphen similar product but without some component , without tretinoine, minoxidil, fenitoine, spironolactone, particularly the ingredients are : water, propylene glycol, tween 80 (polisorbate 80), SD-alcool 40-B, NANO (an abundant dose, almost saturated), ascorbyl palmitate, copper-binding peptides, SOD, aspenol, glicylglicyne, glicylhystidine, arginine, Hystidine, BHT, allantoine, zinc sulfate, copper sulfate. It has a pleasant perfume. It is in liquid form. I have measured the quantity of every vial. It is 60 ml (2 fl.oz). Ten drops are half ml. This product contains a good quantity of sod."
"Another version, sold in the big distribution it is "Dr. Proctor's Advanced Regrowth Formula" , less effective of the regular Dr. Proctor's products in the treatment baldness. Dr. Proctor's Advanced Hair Regrowth Formula contains a potent dose of a "natural" minoxidil (NANO) combined with EDRF enhancers, SODases, and free radical scavengers."

This should answer your question. Hope that cleared some things up.

Thanks for your reply. I still have one more question.
HOW is "Dr. Proctor's Advanced Regrowth Formula" less effective than Proxiphen-n? Is there less of something in it? Is there anything different in it? I don't understand. I feel like they just say "it is less effective" so you will buy the more expensive stuff from proctor's website. Any thoughts?

Look above. You'll see that there are by far more ingredients in Proxi-N. Remember that http://www.anagen.net doesn't sell anything - merely an informative site.
No....."without some ingredients" is referring to the difference between Proxiphen-n and prescription strength proxiphen. The official ingredients lists that I've seen are exactly the same between Prox-n and "Dr. Proctor's Advanced Formula." This is why I'm wondering if the "advanced formula" is cheaper because it has different concentration or what. I e-mailed lef.org with this question, but they haven't answered me in 5 days....
Okay. I don't know anything about it. E-mail Dr. Proctor himself about it. He replies really fast.bobo said:No....."without some ingredients" is referring to the difference between Proxiphen-n and prescription strength proxiphen.

Got some "answers," if you want to call them that:
Me: Proxiphen-n vs. "Dr. Proctor's Advanced Hair Formula," what is the difference between the two? I've seen the "advanced hair formula" at a few websites (lef.org). It looks like the ingredients are the same. Is there any difference?
Proctor: Prox-N is stronger. This is so we do not compete with ourselves. But, the advanced hair formula is a little bit better deal for the money.
Me: How much stronger is prox-n? I was thinking of getting both prox-n and the advanced hair formula and switching off days. Is prox-n more concentrated just in NANO or in every ingredient? How significant is the difference in concentration?
Proctor: For various reasons, I cannot say. Sorry.

i'm no fan at all of Proctor's products.
I absolutely love prox-n. It's application on my hairline is so smooth, it's clear, and it's not greesy. I can put it on any time of day and you wouldn't be able to tell. I've been using it about a month and my temples are starting to fill in a little more. I'll keep you updated on my progress.
The only thing I didn't like about Prox-n was the price, that's why I found and asked about "Dr Proctor's Advanced Hair Formula." It has the same ingredients but is much cheaper, so I think I will go with that. I'm not so sure about the "I cannot say" answer I got from Proctor. Sounds like they just want your money.

In fairness, he has developed these products himself and probably does not want others to know his formulations. For instance, in prescription prox, he has successfully combined spironolactone and minoxidil in the same formula - the only person to do so.
In fairness, if his product was significantly stronger he would have said so to keep business. "I can't say," means "the other stuff is a much better deal." Obviously if the other product has his name on the bottle, he is somewhat involved. The ingedients are EXACTLY the same.....
