Get Me Up To Speed ...

[Whitehart]

Hi All,

After discovering Propecia a few years ago I had hoped hair-loss would be a thing of the past. In recent months I've noticed my hair has begun to thin again.

It's left me searching for alternatives and trying to get up to speed with the latest developments ...

My hair-growth approach will most likely be based on using a herbal shampoo and Dutasteride. That begs a few questions:

Why hasn't Dutasteride been licensed and are there reputable websites I can purchase the medication from online?

Do headstands increase hair-growth? Based on anecdotes and common-sense I believe it does, but I'd like your take.

Are there are other effective treatments I can use -- Or others on the horizon?

Thanks for reading this. I'd appreciate your advice.

Headstands.. No.

Look into dutasteride, or RU in conjunction with fin.

[Whitehart]

Hi Clandestine,

I appreciate your response. Why don't you think headstands work?

I know someone personally who regrew his hair using headstands. He wasn't selling a product, just sharing his experience.

So I'm intrigued ...

[clandestine]

He was taking the piss out of you. If he regrew his hair, it wasn't with headstands.

I appreciate your response. Why don't you think headstands work?

There is no evidence to suggest they do in any regard.

Why hasn't Dutasteride been licensed? With this question, you mean for MPB? It's already an FDA approved drug for BPH. It's already proven to be safe. There's no point in putting it through FDA trials when 1. Their Phase I and II trials for MPB showed it was superior to finasteride, 2. People already buy it for MPB anyway, since like 2002.

Where can you get it online? Me and several other members get it from inhousepharmacies, which is a very reputable online pharmacy that has been around for a long time.

Headstands increasing hair growth. That's the first time I heard that. But is this by increasing blood flow to the scalp? I'm not sure how to answer that. Try it and tell us how that goes

No, he wasn't. He's actually a journalist who's written for national newspapers.

But lovely welcome to this forum ...

Thanks for your response. I appreciate your advice in regards to Dutasteride and Inhouse.

In relation hair-loss and headstands the 'anecdotes' are well established. Years ago Andy Bryant published a book about the technique.

Whether he's a fraud or not -- And he could be -- the technique strikes me as a common-sense approach.

Headstands will do nothing to help your cause and the notion is ridiculous. Use common sense, if it did work every balding man would have been doing this for years already.

[Whitehart]

Given that hundreds of people claim to have used the technique with success, by your 'third party' logic, the technique works?

I never said it did, by the way. I'm fielding opinions.

Actually, gravity is the main culprit in hair loss...the hair just can't overcome it, so in theory if you do head stands, gravity works with you and you should see some regrowth in 3-4 months

Anyway, sorry, no, headstands will do absolutely nothing but make you light headed

I am absolutely astonished that any remotely educated individual could entertain this....Please tell me how you think headstands do anything to stop DHT from attacking the follicle. I'll be waiting. And to be so rude when people tell you that your idea is stupid....My mind is shattered.

Hello F^ck Face.

Bryan Gould, former British MP states it worked for him. Remotely educated? ... Perhaps.

We know hair-growth is dependent on the bloodflow quality (trace-elements) and quantity (vasodilation/constriction).

Perhaps you can illustrate, in lieu or your extensive research, why headstands do not increase blood flow to the scalp and follicles?

I'm all for dignified debate based on facts and reason.

Don't insult me, when based on the testimony of others, I dare to ask a question.

I do not recommend headstands unless maybe you are strength training. However dutasteride will almost definitely help, it is strong stuff. As for shampoos, try 2% ketoconazole (you need an rx if you live in USA).
That is basically my regimen....dutasteride + keto shampoo. (I still take fin but it may be useless now that I am on dut as well)

Thanks mate. I appreciate it.

I'm not even going to comment on headstands as it doesn't seem like you can be swayed from your stance on that one.

But yes, dutasteride is more potent than fin and has been shown to be more effective at 0.5mg per day and even marginally more effective at 0.1mg per day. Although most people go on dut for 2 reasons, either that fin isn't working for them or they want results quicker, in both of these cases there wouldn't really be much sense in taking 0.1mg per day.

If it was simply to be cost effective then I could see why someone would do this though. I heard of someone taking dutasteride at that dose for years with good results at the cost of about 10 pence per day.
