    Jlantern: great progress. I'm getting anxious as I await my RU from Kane and keeping seeing results on here from users. Quick question, what else are you currently using beside RU to combat your hairloss?

    Any sides to date on your end from the RU?

      I thought RU was giving me heart palpitations, exp when I drank coffee I went to the doctor then it stopped. it was unrelated and never happended again. So no real side to report.

      Im using Fin Capillogain, prox-n (might stop using it) niz, RU, lipogain.

          i myself stopped using mpbs ru as my hair loss was getting worse using it im now thinking that a pgd2 blocker may be better.

            Folks, over on another thread there is a user who prepares his RU by pre-measuring his daily 50 - 80 mg into small bags (kept in the fridge I assume). He then adds ~2ml of Minox to that bag and applies.

            This seems like a very easy way to apply the RU. Curious if others have tried this method and their results?

            I will be honest guys, the shedding Jlantern has had while starting RU scares the crap out of me. I am hoping to start on a lower dosage of RU 1/daily may be less risky.

            Thanks

              I should tell you I only applied minox ( for last 3 years on off) to crown and hair line. When I started RU I applied that and Minox all over the head and the shedding was pretty good. Most of the shedding was from the top of the head that did not get much minox .. so its hard to tell if it was RU or Minox. On the other hand my hairline and crown did shed too. its worth it I would say .. it has to get worse before it gets better. If you read lilpaulys posts he also gets worried about his shedding and talks about almost discontinuing some of his topicals because of it.

              Keep calm and grow hair.

                I just got back from getting a hair cut and my hair in he back and on top looks at lot thicker.. I got about 1/2''' long hair now. Shedding of ONLY thin hair that grew out from the temples has speed up a little now too. Which in the long run is exciting news

                  Im noticing that shedding is getting even faster. Shedding only thin hairs around the hairline .. some on the crown.

                    are you planning to experiment with BNP-32 or PGE2 in the future?

                      thats a good question. I did minox for a year, saw what it could do, then its limitation . same with keto.. and ive been on fin for over a year added RU. By far I have seen the best and fastest results since adding RU given the level I am at. If I am satisfied with RU and if RU keeps on this pace I wont need anything else.

                          "Imalmostbald" how long have you been using the RU/Minox mix? Any noticable shedding like "jlantern" mentioned?

                          Thanks

                            So RU dissolves in minox? DOes the strength of the minox have anything to do with it? I can only get 5% minox in Norway.

                            And I dont get sides from fin. But I have not used it long enought to see if its working. Would you suggest that I should use fin for some more time to see if its working for me before I start RU? Or should I just start RU asap

                              Stay with fin, if you're not experiencing sides..

                                Hi, only 2 weeks in at the moment. But i don't notice any shedding yet, i do actually notice a decrease in shedding tho. And yes, my RU dissolves pretty easily in kirkland 5% minox.
