Topical finasteride

[Pavi]

Can I call my local pharmacy and request they make this? How does this work? Some of you are on topical finasteride.... How??

 

[Pavi]

Glad you asked! Medical Wellness Center. Online script (you only get charged if they prescribe it to you).

A medical doctor will review your application. In a few days, you will know if they prescribe it or not. If they
do, you will be able to get it from Pittsburg PA (Murray Ave Apotherapy/Susan M is the owner/pharmacist).

It takes around five days or more from Ohio (I live closer, so it probably takes less time).

Really though, your already having success. Saw the pictures, it looks like your winning and you jumped up
a couple Norwood Numbers!

Actually you might live closer to Pittsburg PA. If your going to go that route (liquid finasteride, and Min), I
would recommend only putting it on your forehead and temple area.

Currently I'm in my late forties. If I can grow some diffuse hair in the temple area, just imagine
how much hair you can grow back!

Good luck.

Thanks man. Does it decrease sides?

Why would you want a topical 5ar?

 

[Pavi]

It actually clears more DHT than oral, believe or not!

It hits the target directly.

There is a US government study with 45 men, half on oral, half on an equal dose of liquid finasteride.
(Not sure why they had an odd number, though).

They were pretty much the same. But the truth is liquid takes away 80% (.1 ml = Propecia dosage/1mg oral).
Whereas oral takes between 70 - 75%, on average. Personally I also think liquid is more effective for growing
back temple hair.

Most white males have issues with temple hair regrowth.

My serum DHT is 17ng/dL..... The range for the lab was 16-79.... I'm very afraid of taking a 5 AR inhibitor

You're already on minoxidil. Have you considered trying a minoxidil compounded w/ finasteride? I would keep on the 5% foam because you're doing awesome, and supplement with this perhaps once a day.

Do u guys think 2% keto will have a good effect? I used 1% regenpure but just got an Rx for 2% generic Keto

What you're doing is working VERY well and you're continually looking at changing it?? Be happy. Be grateful man. Hair greed may end up destroying your hair.

The front really hasn't improved that much.

I thought topical finasteride didn't exist?

Ketoconazole has a side effect profile for gynacomastia..so be alert while using it..

Its better to be harsh sometimes..well said..

I am also using topical finasteride from past 3 months and have no side effects as such. I apply 2-3 ml everyday at night which makes it equivalent to 3 mg in oral as it is 0.1% concentration.

Show me any evidence for this

Take half, but don't let people pressure to take any, if you don't want to. It's just hard to regrow temple hair,
even in your mid twenties. Of course, with age, it gets harder.

This is interesting!
What's the difference between white & blacks growing back their temple hair?
You said that whites have a more difficult time, but why?

Hi. I am from India and have recently added (2 weeks) Topical Finasteride to my regimen. I currently use a Topical Minoxidil & Finasteride Solution. It is a lipid based solution. Composition: 5% Minoxidil & 0.1% Finasteride. Dosage: 1 ML Twice Daily.

Although there are a number of studies that show the efficacy of Topical Finasteride, there is a school of thought (Doctors) which says Topical Finasteride is not effective as it does not get absorbed into the scalp unless administered in a Liposomal Soultion.

Topical finasteride in a Liposomal Solution is not available in India. This is making me think if I should switch to Oral finasteride?

Please share your experience with Topical finasteride. What is the carrier of the Topical Finasteride that you use? Is it in a Liposomal Solution? I would highly appreciate if you could share pictures.

Thanks in Advance !

It's a pharmacutical compound, that's available from a doctor's script only. Keep in mind, I was a Norwood 4/5 at one time, and
now I'm not. Also, I am in my late forties.

My pictures are very big, but if you want to see them, checkout my Progesterone thread (same title).

The last pictures I saw, the front was looking pretty good. Maybe a Norwood 1, if that.

It exists. It definitely exists. In the US, you need a script for it.

I want Hasson and wong's topical finasteride to come out

I just went and ordered some Polaris labs nr-10 with 0.1% topical finasteride and 16% minoxidil. Has anyone tried this? I wonder what topical finasteride will do for me as I'm already using RU. I used 15% minoxidil before but it was giving me side effects. So I just used a low dose on my temples only, may do same with this product. I still use 5% minoxidil - no sides.
