Should I Add S5 Cream To My Regimen?

[JeanLucBB]

I'm doing minoxidil and RU.

The other stuff is bonus, takes less time and money.

Tea tree oil and peppermint oil are known anti inflammatories.

Intermittent fasting is for general health.

Anyway keep wasting your time and money on LLLT. It has no science backing it up.

Intermittent fasting has no evidence backing it up. Again, hippie sh*t. I bet you don't even lift. Do you have body pics?

You can at least delineate an explanatory hypothesis with an underlying mechanism of action for peppermint oil and stemox. Not telling that it will be validated by experimentation, but...to compare this to LLLT is nonsense.

LLLT= Scam

"Do you even lift?"

Lol.

Dude that's actually a meme of what idiots say.

Google it.

Anyway you're a low information individual and I've arrived at my destination. Enjoy talking to yourself.

And just because it is a meme doesn't mean it isn't valid in this context.

This is a hairloss site bro. If you want body pics go to bodybuilding.com or something.

I'm not gay though. Also he claims intermittent fasting as part of his regime, I want to see evidence of the health benefits.

Intermediate fasting has many studys done.

Almost everything you listed is useless for hair loss. Nizoral is complete sh*t as well (even though some people live by it, I think it is just the placebo effect). I honestly believe the only 2 effective treatments are finasteride (dutasteride) and minoxidil. I am on 2mg finasteride daily (doctor upped my dosage recently from 1mg) and was using minoxidil 5% 2x daily for 2 years and continued to lose hair, so wouldn't say I am not using them properly. Minoxidil is proven to not work for everyone, and literally do nothing for many people. Also finasteride isn't necessarily strong enough for everyone. I remember reading somewhere that it only reduces scalp DHT levels like 50%, which is not necessarily going to stop your hair loss (may slow it down though) if the follicles are extremely sensitive to DHT. Also I don't believe DHT is the only cause of male pattern baldness, I believe there are other factors involved, so blocking DHT won't necessarily stop hair loss.

I was recommended to take 0.25mg finasteride daily by another user here:

https://www.gourmetstylewellness.com/intera...nning-and-graying-story-and-questions.103245/

Do you guys think that would be enough mg for finasteride? Like dralex the minoxydil seems to be doing nothing at the moment, i have just started using a minoxidil solution with topical finasteride though so i am hoping it will get better.

Also i just found out about ru58841 and can't seem to find it in the UK so it seems i have to order from the USA, what strength and solution do you guys think i should i get if i ordered from this store?

http://www.thekaneshop.com/solutions-4/ru58841-solution-50ml.html

Also does anyone know if i use topical DHT blockers then stopped if it would shed hair regardless if i took oral finasteride? I took my first 0.5mg finasteride tablet today and i am hoping it will help since i apparently cant have a hair transplant.

1mg reduces DHT about 68% while 0.2 reduces it by 61%. 0.25 is probably somewhere like 63%. In my opinion everyone is better off taking 0.25 mg and finding something else like RU or Nizoral to make up for the small loss.

 

[dralex]

I've never heard of the placebo effect actually growing hair.

Not sure you know what placebo effect is then? Placebo effect as in they think they are getting thicker and more hair as a result of nizoral, but actually aren't. Or are you just trying to claim that nizoral does in fact grow hair. Provide me one study showing that nizoral grows hair. Seriously I am interested, because everyone talks it up so much. The study that other dude babbling linked showed absolutely nothing about the effectiveness of nizoral.

.25mg should be fine. Reduces nearly the same amount of DHT as 1mg. I am only taking 2mg because I am getting the stuff really cheap, my dermatologist thought I could give it a shot, and I am losing hope in these treatments. I honestly may drop back down to 1mg soon though cuz it seems pointless as I am continuing to lose hair.

Also how long have you been on minoxidil? How long on finasteride?

No comment on RU as I have no knowledge on it

Oral finasteride is probably doing almost everything for you if minoxidil isn't working. Topical DHT blockers are ineffective in comparison to oral. I am not really sure if people experience a shed on topical DHT blockers. I am assuming they wouldn't work for me given that oral finasteride isn't even.

Are you going to shut your ignorant pie hole now? The mechanism by which it works, and the efficacy in the real world combating hairloss are very, very clear.

Just because you spent a year on a purely nizoral routine and lost all your hair because you were too pussy to use propecia doesn't mean nizoral is useless.

First one isn't topical. Do you have a link to the actual study in the second link? And sorry not trying to be a dick, just curious if there is any proof to the effectiveness of this stuff.

Cool thanks. Not sure if that is saying it helps with male pattern baldness or if it just reduces sebum excretion rates (which could be unrelated), increasing hair diameter. Nonetheless interesting read. May start using it again.

There is barely any evidence for it, but I'm thinking of moving solely to a shampoo with purely herbal DHT blockers, Nizoral 2% was fine for about a month but its dried the sh*t out of my scalp, trying Regenepure DR twice a week now and even that seems to have the drying effect. Shame because Nizoral in particular makes my hair look ridiculously thick.

Where'd you get 2%?
