[ryan555]

Just got my blood drawn. I should have the results by the middle of next week. We shall see...

I will never quit it because there is no way that I would go back to Finasteride plus i need any oral DHT blocker even if it works less. In my opinion keratene is much effective than saw palmetto extract as a replacement. Plus it has zero sexual sides even less than saw palmetto 500 mg. Sexual activity is very important in my life and cant sacrifice with it for hair.

But but do you think it's benefiting your hair, or are you clinging onto it as a last resort hoping it's helping?

This stuff smells like strong curry powder if you break a capsule open and smell it, even looks like it.

Anyway a week on it for me x2 and nothing sides wise to report. Think I could eat x5 daily and be fine frankly.

ryan,
did you undergo a shedding phase while on fin?

No.

ryan,
did you undergo a shedding phase while on fin?

I have a neurological condition and my doctor wanted me to quit all meds for a while. It worked wonders for my hair the whole time I was on it - regrew my juvenile hairline and kept it lush and think well into my 30's.

ryan555, just a consideration.

Probably the result of your blood test will described the method used in the examination.

Hugs.

When did you start losing? And did you have aggressive loss aka destined for NW4-6 by your 30's?

What made you quit the fin after all that time? Was it effective for you?

[ryan555]

Nice man. Btw, when you took fin, did you get sides? If so, how severe?

If your DHT levels are lowered by Keratene, then I'd be convinced it is worth taking for those who either 1) Can't tolerate fin 2) Want to see how their body reacts to lowering DHT before jumping on fin (but obviously if hair is maintained they wouldn't need to hop on fin)

I did have a few sides, but I was unaware of them until I stopped using it. My sides were deceased body hair, a short period of groin pain (may not have even been related), and...uh...a little "dribbling" when I urinated. In the 12 years I was on the drug, I never went online to read about side effects, never even expected them, and my life was not compromised by them. I would gladly take them back in exchange for not thinking about hair loss every freaking day. If this keratene turns out to be bunk, I am going to try fin once again.

Edit: I should also note that I was taking half a 5 mg pill every day for the last few years. I don't recall having any sides earlier on when I was taking 1 mg. Also, in the last few months I was on the drug, I started taking a whole 5 mg pill and I noticed some minor gyno symptoms. Again, it didn't even occur to me that it was fin causing it, I just thought I needed to hit the gym. It went away almost immediately when I stopped taking it.

Thing is Dan26 - i dont think ryan is going to see a change, same a Julio - i'm prepping myself for a let down here, I hope i'm totally wrong, but it seems like a well thought out elaborate scam to me..

I'm honestly quite skeptical too, for a number of reasons:

1) every positive review I've read online is by someone who has one post on a forum. They also all tried to sound like a "brah," like they were trying too hard to connect with other users. Also, the trials were done in Europe, but most of the reviews are coming from guys who sound like American frat boys. I have spent a ton of time in Europe and those types of guys do not exist there.

2) the only legit people who have been tested showed no decrease in DHT.

3) of the people in their trial, all of them had super high DHT. Did they screen out anyone with low to normal DHT or was this just some insane coincidence? If they did screen them out, why not disclose that?

Luckily, skepticism cannot affect a blood test. I do also find it quite interesting that Prohairclinic showed positive results in their "independent" study, done with a university. It seems unlikely that they would risk their entire reputation by falsifying study results to make a few bucks off some vitamins. Trust me, if this is a scam, I am going to make sure everyone knows it. If its legit, I'll make sure everyone knows that too.
