Get with the program Harrisson. Propecia was cool back when it was launched as the MIRACLE PILL but the cat was out of the bag soon enough.

It makes no sense that people in 2012 are still on that man-poison.
Exactly. Well said.

But let's keep the discussion oriented towards tocotrienols. I've ordered some in hopes of testing efficacy. I will start taking daily as soon as they arrive.
Way to carry on my friend. I'll be interested in seeing how things work. I myself will hopefully be good to go in two or three weeks and will restart the 8 month trial.

No worries. Problem with me is I really need to find a retailer that carries them in Canada if I hope to be in this for the long term. For the first batch I've had to ship from the US, as you can imagine this is extremely costly.

What else are you doing? Testing the efficacy claims of hair growth from this while taking anything else seems iffy, unless you've been just using fin and not seeing any loss or growth.

Now me...I'm considering this after discovering it here. Right now I am...adverse...to screwing with my hormones chemically. If doing something natural screws with my hormones fine. Not chemically.

Not taking anything else currently.

As I've mentioned though, I'll only be able to continue any sort of trial if I can eventually find a retailer somewhere in Canada.

I've been on toco 8 for 3 weeks now. Beard growth has indeed accelerated. Temples stubbling with miniature bristles. promising.

I must admit I have resumed my regimen with renewed vigor and added several new agents so I can't report on toco 8 under controlled experiment conditions. My logic is simple; they all probably work modestly in their own right by different mechanisms... BUT I don't have time to test each individually and be repeatedly disappointed; My ONLY chance at cosmetically significant improvements is to blitz everything.

I never touched propecia.

Survive this next stretch of 1 or 2 years and a real solution will hopefully redeem us entirely.

Don't be afraid to disclose your current regimen mate. I for one am curious, as I'm sure others may be.

Yeah even tho I felt ripped off with TRX2 lol I'm willing to take a punt on this stuff, seems cheap n cheerful.

So what's the 'best' brand that can be ordered from the UK anyone?

To all those people who reported thicker beard growth: that is a bad sign!

Apparently tocotrienols INCREASE testosterone production:

that's why your hair elsewhere gets thicker while the hair on your scalp gets thinner... the cause of that is extra testosterone
