    Default Natural DHT blockers - HLCC Script Complete

    Does anyone have any experience with natural DHT blockers? I have come across one called HLCC Scripts Complete.

    The company's web site says it has NO side effects. It says the following about how it works compared to propecia:

    HLCC: Blocks androgen receptors so DHT doesn't bind to hair follicles
    Propecia: Stops 5 alpha reductase from converting Testosterone to DHT

    Here is a link to the site: http://www.hlcconline.com/001HLCOMP30.html

    I am seriously considering this as propecia caused me to have side effects. I am struggling to find reviews though. Thoughts please?

    The vast majority of "natural" DHT blockers are nothing more than over priced versions of Saw Palmetto Complex. Note that I said "complex" not straight Saw Palmetto. You can buy Saw Palmetto Complex at your local pharmacy in the vitamin isle.

    It is important to note that if any "natural" DHT blocker you may find actually does block DHT in some way, it will likely cause similar side effects as Finasteride.

    There are no legitimate studies to show that any "natural" product for treating hair loss actually works. There is some anecdotal evidence that Saw Palmetto Complex might work for some people.

    Thank you. Do they actually work differently enough so that no side effects are experienced?

    I am excited about my new regimen now. Minoxodil began yesterday, Nizoral ordered online, I will purchase a HairMax LaserComb online and tomorrow I will buy Saw Palmetto at pharmacy. Surely if I do get side effects from it, they are natural and so no "post-finasteride" syndrome.

    Hey Rupe

    I was keen to know if you stuck with your regimine of Nizoral, Saw Palmetto and the laser comb.

    Was it as effective as finpecia?

    OldSchool on the baldtruth forum.

    Thanks

    Personally, I don't think they work at all. I cannot test them myself to find out. If they actually do work, they would likely cause the same side effects as Finasteride.

    Fine then!!!! Apparently Revivogen is a substitute for Propecia and has no side effects.

    "Potentially one of the most effective, clinically-backed products on the market. We cannot stress this enough. When you Google "hair loss treatments", you are bombarded with literally hundreds of snake oils. Revivogen is the one treatment out there with actual studies backing its ingredients, and this is unique. Revivogen is a topically applied DHT inhibitor that contains more scientifically-backed ingredients for inhibiting DHT than you can shake a stick at. The makers set out to create a solution that contains as many known DHT-inhibiting, antiandrogen ingredients as possible. Since no significant amount is absorbed into the bloodstream, there are no side effects, as may be seen with orally-ingested treatments like Propecia."

    Revivogen is nothing more than an over priced bottle of empty promises. It does nothing appreciable. The "studies" they claim to have mean nothing because they are not true legitimate studies.

    Hey Rupr. I checked out that site. Interesting products but whats up with the price?? $95 for 5% minoxidil? Thats crazy. The 15% gel they have looks promising but requires an Rx. I'd hate to see the price on that!

    Thanks for your encouragement Mirage! I guess that has to be the aim, to do as much as possible to at least stop or slow down the hair loss.
