Questions about Folligen

[BoundByLight]

Hello all,

I am a little confused after reading the "Men's Guide to Hair Loss Treatment."

Treatment loss goals:-
1) Maintenance
2) Growth

I am not interested in Propecia due to side effects, Rogaine is a little pricey, which led me to Folligen.

The product comparison says Folligen is a DHT inhibitor but the it also says Folligen's main purpose is additional growth stimulation.

The main purpose other DHT inhibitors is long term maintenance, and slight growth.

Why isn't the main purpose of Folligen also long term maintenance, and slight growth?

Thanks.

If you use Folligen by itself, you're going to go bald. Think about it....you want to stop DHT from getting to your hair. Why even bother if you're just going to try to stop it once it's already gotten there? That's an uphill battle no creme is ever going to win on its own.

You have to block DHT from the inside with finasteride or dutasteride. If you don't want to try those, then you at least need to be on minoxidil and nizoral. The off brand from Amazon is dirt cheap.

are you saying folligen can CAUSE baldness instead of helping? i started using the folligen spray a month ago, but it seems to be getting worst lately.
