I did see it and it is interesting. However that method is not practical. By the time they have a workable system that a woman could use at home, Histogen and Replicel will have a much more effective treatment on the market.
You can buy a mesotherapy gun yourself and they are very easy to use! However, they are quite pricey (500-thousands), but you do make up for it a little bit by only having to use very small amounts of minoxidil (or whatever else you want to inject). If I ever go that route I will make posts about it here. I think it is an option that should be explored, and surprisingly is not, but as you said in years time we will have Histogen.

I was not being disagreeable. I was being factual. Contraceptives are in fact notorious for triggering hair loss in women. If you actually knew what you are talking about, you would have known that. Advice from anyone who so obviously does not know what they are talking about is harmful advice.
so basicly you are saying that our european doctors are simply plain old dumb right ?
Both Diane 35 and cyproterone acetate are illegal in the US. So you need to be the one to shut up.

Aw man, sometimes I really hate reading these stories, but I can't stop myself!
Dealing with hairloss is horrific for a man, I can't even begin to imagine what it must be like for a woman. When my mum was having chemotherapy treatment and her hair started falling out in patches, it broke her heart :(
Whether we like it or not, men are shallower than women when it comes to choosing a mate, for evolutionary reasons - men have less invested in sexual encounters, and men just want a healthy partner who will produce healthy offspring, whereas women are looking for a male who is willing and able to protect her and said offspring. That, and because it is rarer in women, makes hairloss that much more difficult for ladies.

That's an unequivocal yes, if a woman is otherwise attractive and nice and kind, it wouldn't bother me. And actually, reading your story reminded me of something - a couple of years ago, my then-flatmate and I had this friend, and we used to go and visit her in her building, and my flatmate and I both had a HUGE crush on her landlady, who was sexy as hell. Then our friend told us that her landlady wore a wig, because her hair was falling out (not sure why, if it was medical or what). I'll admit that I never saw her without the wig, but it didn't stop me and my flatmate lusting after her, lol.
I hope you're ok anyway.

Bimatoprost will be much more effective than minox but will not be on the shelf until around mid 2017.

Really? Tell me what other styles can you do because I am struggling to do anything other than that.

Contraceptives can promote hair growth in some cases, but that isn't a generally advisable application since the hair growth isn't necessarily limited to the scalp:

You can have longer hair at the front, like I do, and most people can't really tell I'm losing hair... But long hair is the only style you can do to hide some of the hair loss, I'm afraid.

Are you capable of paying attention? Now get off your lazy butt and read this. Read all of it. Every word.
