Hidden Gem -> MSM/Vit C & TRX2 - a fin alternative?

[Jcm800]

Interesting that you've maintained sizzlinghairs, downhill spiral for me, glad something is helping you tho..

Anyone got any up-dates on this combo? I've lost count of how many pills i've popped (been on it around 11 months) anyway i feel i'm wasting my time, what about anyone else?

Gave up early last month after about 8 months of taking the stuff. It just wasn't doing anything other than making my hair really dry (an effect that's still persisting, annoyingly. I want to give Nizoral a go for the itch but trying something that's supposed to be drying when your hair is dry anyway sounds like a recipe for disaster). I wasn't really expecting life changing results in that time frame or anything, but it didn't have the slightest effect on the itch either. Not going to deny it may have an effect for some people, but I didn't seem to be one of them.

Oh well, wasn't really any harm in trying - though I certainly didn't maintain during that time.

Badger, cant remember if you tried trx2 along side msm?

Nope, just the MSM/Vit-C. Wasn't willing to pay out the kind of money TRX2 costs when it seems so sketchy. Maybe if I had a lot more disposable income, or a lot more people had positive experiences with it, I might have given it a try, but I'm not quite at 'run myself into debt trying anything possible no matter how remote the chances of success' levels of desperation yet.

Been on it for about 9 months ...defiantly helps with the itch...might only get a slight itch once a day for a couple of seconds ....if I don't take it for a few days the itch comes back ....when I used to just take niz it would only relieve the itch temporarily ....are people who are using this combo....I only take msm and vit c and use a lemon shampoo with jojobo oil that I added myself ?

Are other people only use this combo or are your adding any PG2 blockers or dht inhibitors ?

Interesting thing I noticed is the main ingredient of solgars "hair, skin and nails" tabs is - msms+vitc!

Of course solgar is probably the most expensive manufacturer out there, but that tells us there is something in this combo that works.

I'm pleased with how things are going for me (no itch, no oil...) so I'm continuing into my 9th month with the combo.

OK so I am a month in and have a few observations.

Firstly, I think I have recently gone through a shed (especially frontal hairline, as others in this thread seem to have reported). Remember I have never really used anything in the past for hair loss except vitamins etc, so it can't be attributed to dropping anything.

I put this down to the fact that maybe I was due a shed anyway, but it seemed a bit of a coincidence to be honest....

Also, I got a terrible itch where I lost ground on my hairline.
Maybe my body reacted to the sudden intake of these supplements and needed to adjust, and possibly caused a shed. What do you think of that Gutted? Do you think that could be possible?

Anyway, the good news is that for the last week my itch has pretty much gone. I probably haven't had such a comfortable feeling on my scalp since I can remember. Which is really great.

So maybe this is the start of good things, as you predicted. I can only hope.

wow, can't believe I've been on this regime so long looking back at this thread!

Anyway, balding brothers, I have stuck to it religiously (popping all these pills is a daily ritual that had become second nature now).

All I can report is the following: less itch (I think that's purely the tgel to be honest), I feel healthier and more active. Possibly the MSM & multis etc.

Hair wise, never been worse. Natural progression of MPB carries on, and now over a year later my crown is scarce and hairline is very far back. Probably should shave my head now but I actually think I look better with the 'that guy's going bald young' look. Or maybe that's just chickening out. I keep it reasonably short, but just think I'd look shit with a shaved head. Too soft faced/boyish for it in my opinion.

Anyway, my only conclusion is that TRX2 is bullshit, MSM probably does your body some good but certainly not your hair.

Just thought I'd update to save you guys any money who might be contemplating such a regime. I really gave it a good try.

I'm jumping ship and hitting the dermaroller craze as of tonight.

Cheers.

[Jcm800]

Cheers Ticket, yeah I've been on it well over a year myself, it's a ritual like you say, but if it's helping other people - I don't think it's helped me.. Hair has never been worse..

Gutted - where are you? I think you're advice was well intended, but ultimately useless in my case.

140+ pages in this thread on MSM/Vit C & TRX2. Incredible how it got this far. I never took this regimen seriously, in fact this is my first time posting in this thread.

There should be a forum named 'Junk' where all usuless treatment thread get moved to.

Totally agree with you, I'm partly responsible for the posts myself, wish the TRX2 thread could be locked and deleted, it's a useless product, pure scam.

[fl4va]

Pure bullshit. Someone delete this thread.

[fred970]

Seconded, I even tried the MSM/Vit C thing. It didn't hurt me and had some benefits for the state of my skin. But hair wise: nothingness.

[AgainstThis]

Yo, ages no talk my brothers-in-balding.

No doubt about it, TRX2 was and is a pure scam. I've been off it for about a year now (Maybe a little more, but I am not even bothered to remember) and just take 3mg MSM and 1mg VitC daily, mostly to stay in the hair-loss junkie loop and because it doesn't really hurt anything.

Surprisingly, I've not lost any more hair since getting on the regime and the NW2.5/3 that I had is healthier and shinier than ever.

This *could* be construed as a sign that it works somewhat, but if it doesn't do it for EVERYONE who tries it, I just think that it's my hair loss's natural progression (as I said in previous threads, it was never really aggressive to begin with).

At least it's dirt cheap.

Anyhow, take care, stay away from the TRX and be strong.

[Jcm800]

It's nothing but a well thought out elaborate plan to make balding men part with cash in the hope they'll regrow their 'second generation of hair'. Pure scam, I'll shoot anyone down who says otherwise. It did nothing, absolutely fck all for me in 15 months.

As AgainstThis has already said - stay well away.

[sizzlinghairs]

Well I thought I might chime in. I can understand everyone's frustration here.

I have been on trx2 for a little over 2 years. Msm/vit c for around 10 months.

Before I got on msm/vit c, I think I can say trx2 significantly slowed my loss, and made my hair look healthy and manageable again. Also some thickening but nothing dramatic. I believe my temples/hairline were still receding, but at a significantly slower pace. Since adding msm/vit c I've maybe noticed thickening / better health hair, but can't even say for sure on that.

So it's possible I just have a lot less aggressive hairloss than you guys, or maybe there is some other reason.

Some days I shed more than others and some days ill feel like my hair looks thin, but it varies. Overall though, I can say trx2 has helped me. I'm trying to find ways now to regain my hairline but we all know how difficult that is.

Againstthis, you have absolutely no decline whatsoever at all
Since dropping trx2, nothing, not 1 drop?

Buy the ticket, you have not noticed even 1 drop of increased hair health since trx2?

Jcm, you have absolutely not noticed 1 drop of increased hair health whatsoever from trx2?

why have I noticed a difference, it's strange..
