    Yea maybe you're right. I will stay of MSM for a month and if my erections aren't back to pre fin I will start with MSM again.

    I'm not sure. When I first started fin I got erectile issues that may be attributed to placebo. They went away after a while and then returned at the end of my fin usage.

    Placebo.
    Maybe but the study says that MSM decreases nitric oxide which is an important substance for erections. Viagra, for example, works through increasing nitric oxides effects

    I have taken 7g MSM per day for 3 years and my hair looks pretty much the same now as when I started it. Two years ago I stopped finasteride after using it for two years. My hair loss didn't increase after the cease of fin and I thought this was due to trx2 that I started a few months earlier.

    The last year on fin I got problem with my erections and it didn't go away when quitting fin. In fact, the problem is still here to some degree.
    I have read that fin decreases your nitric oxide levels so that may explain why it can give you ED but the ED should go away when you stop fin.

    A few weeks ago I found this studie:
    Methylsulfonylmethane (MSM), also known as dimethyl sulfone and methyl sulfone, is an organic sulfur-containing compound that occurs naturally in a variety of fruits, vegetables, grains, and animals, including humans. In the present study, we demonstrated the anti-inflammatory effects of MSM in lipo …


    It says that:
    "MSM significantly inhibited the release of nitric oxide and prostaglandin E(2) by alleviating the expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase and cyclooxygenase-2 in LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 cells."

    So I have now taken a break from MSM for about two weeks and I think my erections are getting stronger. Anyone else noticed something similar with MSM?

    Nitric oxide can effect more than just erections.

    Edit. I also think that I'm loosing more hair now (can be attributed to other things). I'm a nw 2,5

    Thing is - trx2 has been on the market for what? Two years or so? And going by their 'customer testimonials' by now, all us long termers should be seeing positive results. I'm not, and really, i don't think any one else is either. Those that 'think' they're having a little benefit, cant even be sure its attributed to trx. The more time passes, the more i believe we're being taken for mugs.

    I've been on trx2 close to
    2 years. Msm/vit c 6-9-12 grams (varies when I remember), since around 9/12. Since being on trx2 I've essentially maintained my hair and thickened somewhat but with same back an forth phases on my hairline (still not 100% sure if its **minorly** recceeding or holding or maybe strengthening lol).

    I've tried a bunch of other stuff in the past and surprisingly trx2 is the only
    Thing that has been able to
    Maintain for this length of time and especially without side effects (which is HuGE for hairloss meds). Maybe it's my natural
    Slow progression but like I've said I've had plenty of negative past experiences.

    I have also been using hydrocortisone and, very occasionally, miconazole nitrate on the hairline. I believe the hydrocortisone has been a valuable addition

    Nearly twelve months for me, highly doubtful I'll reorder any. I don't see anyone other then ulanude highly praising it. It's not encouraging and its bloody expensive.

    This is probably a stupid question, but you don't think there's any harm in combining this regimen with EMU-oil on your scalp right?
