Propecia will fuck u up mate, if the hairloss from b5 is mpb then why have most of us lost hair all over the head, I've lost loads from the back and sides aswell as the mpb areas. I believe it's nothing to do with mpb that's why propecia doesn't really do anything, it will help a little bit but it would anyway. I still think it's adrenal. I have loads of the symptoms of adrenal fatigue.
propecia helps everyone? I started to drink it
what do the doctors say?
If it means mpb Propecia should help .. if it is not mpb means eventually everything will
am I right?
Propecia helps some people, not all. RU helped both me and PJ. The key is to take the meds for 3 months minimum. The major side effects are decreased energy, decreased sex drive and brain fog. If you get side effects, your choice how much your hair is worth. It does not stop on it's own. I ordered RU 5% from Angeninc, it's premixed.
I suggest nizoral also, it's the only one without side effects, but also the weakest. I'm at university for nursing, and speak with a lot of doctors. I had hundreds of tests as well as other members. I spoke with endocrinologist in the United States and Europe. No on knows anything.
There might be potential cure based on lipids. Some members on hair forums are currently undergoing the procedure. If it works for them I will talk about it here, but for now just take meds.
I did stop taking RU because I was getting terrible brain fog and fatigue. I might try a lower dose because my hair is getting terribly thin. I don't think I used it long enough to know if it slowed down the shedding, but it definitely started growing hairs.
The minoxidil didn't help much. I probably used for 2 years and nothing promising so I stopped.
I did try both Propecia (1 year) and Avodart (over 1 year) and neither slowed down the shedding.
I took a few capsules of the iodide but I stopped because I have my endocrinologist appointment is coming up on Nov 3rd which I will have tests done. I don't want to screw with my system before I have the tests.
What RU dose were you on originally? I ordered the 5% from anageninc and am deciding how many mg to use per day. I'm surprised you got brain fog on RU, it doesn't block DHT from being formed, but rather blocks DHT from binding to the receptor just like spiro, but more powerful. Were you on RU and Propecia at the same time?
Haha yeh pretty much everyone has got a receding hairline on this forum except mabe 1 lol
Glad to see you Blue. Using any treatments or anything?
I have not heard about the RU ..what is it? it is in Russia??itsoveryesDoctors can not determine the BCH is or just hair loss?
It is an experimental anti androgenic, it prevents the binding of DHT to the hair follicle thus preventing hairless. It can be ONLY gotten online. What is BCH?
I recommend you stay with propecia for 6 months before trying RU. Propecia is FDA approved, RU is not.
Mate the doctors don't have a clue what it is, my advise is just wait, me and others have spent years trying different things, nothing works. No point in taking propecia all it will do is fuck ur body up, it's won't regrow ur hair back to normal so no point in wasting your time

Hi mate na not taking anything now given up haha spent too long and too much time on bloody hairloss. Still shedding nearly 5 years now:-( I check the forum every now and then to see what's happening but still no luck eh. One day guys 1 day
? ?
, ? , mpb! .. ?
ru)
p/s If Propecia does not work - so it's not mpb! and it's good! means the hair should grow over time. am I right?
I'm not prepared to try propecia, when I tried saw palmetto that fucked me up enough and it's supposedly weaker.
I've also been losing hair for around 5 years, didn't even notice it for a while. I used to have very thick hair so it isn't too bad, girls think I'm handsome still but imagine if I had a full head of hair.
I'll give it a few years and hopefully there is stem cell therapy available by then, if not I will consider a hair transplant if it's got a lot worse.

I'll let you know how RU is. It's a topical AA, shouldn't have any systemic effects. Hopefully stem cells, lipids, or growth factors come soon. Best is if whoever reads this thread doesn't take B5 to begin with!
Read through the pages. Hair does NOT grow back by itself.
Take propecia if you want hair. Add RU after 6 months
Hello.
I have just logged into this site after a while - and it is quite upsetting to hear that nobody has had any success with the supplements.
I am still on my regime and my hair is still presently in satisfactory condition (thank god).
I may actually experiment myself in relation to ceasing all supplemental usage and then slowly introducing one at a time, maybe monthly, to ascertain specifically which one of the supplements is having an effect in mediating my B5 related hair loss dilemma.
My gut is definitely telling me it is something in relation to the adrenal/thyroid system in my body - and B5 usage had definitely impacted this in some (positive and negative) way.
I went through a 2 week period recently whereby I had become slightly Ill with the flu. I ordered a different brand of colostrum and over the duration of around 3 days, I had taken copious amounts in hope that it would bolster my immune system, as I tend to dislike taking medications that the doctors usually prescribe.
It worked for me - i felt an improvement in my flu like symptoms on the second day, but I continued with take the colostrum in high amounts over the duration of around 2 weeks until the supplement had finished, and in all honestly, during this time, my hair was in superb condition. I just cannot put my finger on it if it actually does have something to do with colostrum or if it is something to do with the additions of the other supplements I am taken concurrently, as my evidence is still only anecdotal.
I really do need to conduct an experiment myself - as the cost of taking all of these does become quite a challenge on a monthly basis. I need to pinpoint the exact supplement and continue with only its usage.
But I do generally feel really healthy (strength and energy related) since i started this regiment. My immune system and symptoms of fatigue have definitely improved and I tend to have more of a spring in my step - but again, i need to run this experiment for myself.
I will from tomorrow, only continue with the colostrum, and if all is well for around 2 weeks, i will continue and then reassess any introductions I may need to make at the end of the two week period.
I'm quite nervous thinking about it. I don't want to lose any hair during this process as this has been working quite well for me. But it is a financial pain.
freakingthefrackout Im sorry to hear youre losing hair. I have read on diffrent forums about this and it seems to me that girls bounce back. You prob got Telogen Effluvium. Good luck!
Happy to see you back hemetic. Trying one at the time sounds resonable, not only for finacial reasons but for your health. I pray to jebus that colostrum is the cure. Keep us posted mate. And good luck to you too!
About 4 weeks in on the colostrum/high protein thing and my shedding is definitely lessened. When I run my hand through my hair I get 1-2 hairs whereas before I would get around 6 hairs at a time. I worry that others might not see the same success though because I never got the receding hairline. I had pretty severe shedding on the crown and temples though. Still have oily and slightly itchy scalp but nothing too bad.
I have my doubts about this being MPB because I'm always shedding but the net loss doesn't seem to be increasing. In MPB you're always at a downward slope but I seem to be pretty stagnant as far as hair loss/gain. You can certainly tell my hair is thinned out but it's not getting worse. I tend to subscribe to the lipid thing, and the locality of the hair loss is somehow dependent on the follicles most susceptible to lipid disruption. I had a patch of hair on my upper thigh that went completely bald before I had any head hair shedding (should have payed closer attn. to that) which has now grown back almost entirely over the course of a year.
Gonna continue this for another couple weeks then add the iodine and see where that takes me. As always good luck y'all.
Can you please list the amount of colostrum/supplements you are taking per day and how long you have been on this regime. Thanks
"I tend to subscribe to the lipid thing, and the locality of the hair loss is somehow dependent on the follicles most susceptible to lipid disruption."
Nukeng, what do you mean by this (bolded part)?

I take one 500 mg capsule twice daily of Jarrows Colostrum and consume at least 70 grams of protein daily. Those are the only supps I am taking.
What I mean is I suspect that the reason people are seeing thinning hair (mostly) in the typical MPB areas is not because it's MPB but because the follicles that are most susceptible to altered lipid metabolism happen to also be the ones that are affected by MPB. That's just my suspicion based upon what people have noted and my own personal observation.
3-4 weeks ago I started taking colostrum, adrenal cortex and raw thyroid gland.
Its so fking hard to know if its better or not but overall these last two weeks I shed less. I measure it on how much I shed on my pillow each morning when I wake up. Its a big improvement, from maybe 15-20 before to 3-10 now.
But I dont know guys, I wont say "this" and "that" is the cure or working until im completely 100% sure.
Also, for seb.dermatitis, Itchy scalp, greasy sebum etcetc that many seems to have. Buy Himalayan Pink salt, make sure its real and not fake. I bought it from Iherb.
I put half teaspoon salt in half litre warm water and let it dissolve and then pour it all over my scalp and face and let it dry for maybe 15-30 minutes before I take a shower. It works wonder, also good for acne.
me someone can answer? mpb it or not ??? I started drinking finasterid!
here like a man who wrote fallout passed five years later .. is it true?
Hair problems in men only? do not ignore me please
thank
Dude, none is ignoring you. Just read and you can clearly see that none of us have a fucking idea what it is. That's the sad thing, we dont know
