Started RU 3 Weeks ago

[Pate]

I can't see any reason why 200 mg RU would do harm. Not to your hair at any rate, it's probably not optimal for your body but unless you're super sensitive to androgens you should be okay.

I've been on 1ml of 5% for 2.5 months now and I'm shedding like a bitch. Definitely more than normal. No idea whether I'm getting regrowth yet. Nothing obvious. But I'm hoping it's a good sign. I will keep using it for 6 months and then reevaluate.

Hurry up CB!!!!

My diffused area and vertex have thinned out a bit since the start of RU /Callipogain. I hope this is a sign of it working. Does anyone know if using 200 mg does more harm than good?

jlantern, can you give me some pointers on Letro? was thinking about getting some because i too have gyno from fin. is it an oral drug or injection? do i have to take it in conjunction with other stuff to kill the gyno or just standalone? any sides i should be worried about? really don't know much about it but desperate to kill off this gyno before it becomes permanent...

btw won't the gyno just come back over and over if you keep taking fin? do you plan on taking letro and fin in conjunction for the long haul?

I only get gyno when I lift really heavy and eat heavy. I feel like it goes hand and hand with my test levels. I use it when I feel sore, which has been 2 over 14 months for about 2 weeks. Its oral and I use 2.5ml

Thanks for the update. So you are applying Minoxidil 5% twice a day and RU 5% once a day?

At week 2 I started applying it around my whole NW6 area. I saw some shedding got me worried. Its hard to tell if the shedding is still continuing but on the bright side my hairline is showing some nice thin hairs popping up and some of them are starting to get some length to them.

No pictures?

Just started will post before after pics. My hair is a very light color as it is, I dont think the camera will pick it up .. I have to look at the hair and a certain angle. The hair is getting longer and darker.

On a side note I noticed a hair pomade I use sometimes has castor oil in it as the primary ingredient. I am going to smear a put in my temple area to shorten up my concern with dryness. I also purchased capillogain and hope to add as soon as it arrives.

Hari, Thank you for your interest. I feel you should start your own thread with your questions about fin and ru together

[HARIRI]

Thank you jlantern. Im just wondering, Minoxidil supplies blood to the hair follicle, while Finasterdie blocks DHT. How about RU? I think it plays the same role as Finasteride? So would it make a difference if used both? Correct if I am wrong Buddy.

I just kicked it up for the next few days to see if I notice accelerated gains. In additional I use kirkland 5% minox, JASON biotin b complex shampoo / conditioner and 5,000 mgc biotin orally ED. I am also still taking fin 1.25g EOD.

I did, you mentioned that you WERE using Minoxidil and Finasteride but are you STILL using them while you are using the RU58841 recently?

Also which strength of RU58841 are you taking? 1% or 2% or 5%? You said 200mg so what does this mean? Which strength is it?

Yes Minox Morning and night. I put it on usually before or after RU, I let RU/minox dry before I apply the next topical. I am using a 5 percent KB solution. I mix 100mg of RU + 2ml of KB.
that is 2ml of 5 percent. I apply it to my temples and crown and whatever is left in the outter diffused areas.
