    Hello. Has anyone tried Hair omega 3 in 1? Please read

    Hello,

    I'm currently 24, in shape and eating balanced diet. I don't quite have an NW2 (I'd say NW1.5) My father and both grandfather on each side of our family have gone bald. Starting at 24-25 my dad said he started experiencing hairloss so I figure I'll put a stop to my hairloss.

    I still have my hairline but it's slowly turning into a solid NW2 because the hairs are getting weaker on the sides. I still see little hairs on the corner of my temple. If these were to turn strong again I think I'd be back to a 'NW1' again. I've been on hairomega 3 in 1 for about a month now. It's suppose to lower DHT levels which in turn will allow me to keep what hairs I have left. So far I have to say I think it's working. My nails seem stronger, my hair seems stronger and very surprisingly I have no acne anymore. I've always been suffering from acne ever since I was a teen. I tried almost everything to stop it but nothing worked, however this supplement seems to have cured my acne. My face has not been this clear since I was 14 lol. It's only been less than a month that I've been taking hairomega 3 in 1 but already things seem promising.

    I'll also note that my sex drive was pretty darn high ever since I was a teen (as most other young guys) but ever since I started hairomega I think my sex drive has been gradually reducing. Simply put I don't get as 'happy' when I see a knock out girl somewhere. lol. Otherwise sexual function is normal.

    Ok now that I have that out of the way.. This is my REGIMEN:

    I have recently started taking 5% topical minoxidil kirkland signature brand (starting yesterday). I have 100% green tea everday, I take fish oil gels everday with each meal and I have also switched to a biotin shampoo with saw palmetto, wheat protein and all that other good stuff that helps stimulate the scalp and thicken hair.

    I think this is a pretty solid 'maintenance' regimen. I know there are many more things I can do but I think the DHT controller (hairomega) and 5% minoxidil will be my best bets in preventing hairloss. I realize minoxidil isn't for the hairline but I've heard that it does work in maintaining a hairline. I truly want to avoid propecia though. I realize the risk of side effects are small with propecia but it's enough to scare me away from it.

    I've been keeping a picture log of my progress. When I start feeling brave enough I'll post it here. I'm already looking at the 'before' picture and my hair looked completely lifeless... Now my hair looks healthy. If the little hairs on the side of my head strengthen again I will be very happy. Hopefully I'll be able to keep my hair for enough time until a true cure comes out for hairloss.

    Green tea is good stuff, I drink it too. Consider including extract as well plus grape seed extract.. extract is much more potent and I'm planning to add it soon. Black tea is reported to be much more potent in terms of fighting DHT - some even claim it blocks more DHT than finasteride.

    I personally use beta sitosterol 510mg + 300mg saw palmetto daily, to fight DHT, and also some other stuff. Soon I plan to include ganoderma lucidum(reishi) - it blocks up to 50% of DHT. These might be the nature's BIG 3. Surely not worse than quasi proven 3 drugs, and side effects wise.. these natural compounds are safe - studies report no significant nor permanent side effects as with propecia.

    Flax seed oil and flax seeds are also rich in omega 3 and is more natural and environmental friendly choice than fish oil.

    As for propecia, I 100% agree with You, its a hazardous drug and ought to be avoided completely. Dr. Irwig and Dr. Traish, Boston & Washington studies have recently linked it to permanent ED, cancer, depression etc.. manufacturer has also pulled down their own website and first class law suits are becoming reality.. damaged people are standing up and pressing charges.

      Thanks for the reply. I also bought fish flax borage so I'll be taking that one soon. I agree about propecia, it seems safe for the most part it's the side effects that the few people have experienced that makes me avoid that route. I'm sure there are MANY happy propecia patients out there and on this forum but I just don't want to take that big of a risk of losing my manhood you know?

      I disagree about the black tea though. my dad has been taking black tea ever since he was maybe 6 years old. He religiously has it everyday but he still lost his hair. In fact he has maybe 4-6 cups of tea per day! I've also been raised with black tea. maybe it helps slow down hairloss but from what I've read from anecdotal evidence online is that green tea is better.

      Take some time and look at each of these ingredients in hairomega 3 in 1 and let me know what you think: Some of the ingredients here are just amazing for hairloss from what I've heard. Maybe some members here might join me and try it after reading what's in it, lol. If anything I'm hoping it will at least maintain the hair I have left while minoxidil regrows and strengthens some hair on the corner of my head.

      Serving size: 3 tablets. Vitamin A (as beta carotene) 10000 IU 200% Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) 250 mg 416% Vitamin E (d-alpha toco. acetate) 12 IU 40% Vitamin B-1 (as thiamine mononitrate) 30 mg 2000% Vitamin B-2 (as riboflavin) 100 mg 5882% Niacinamide 30 mg 150% Vitamin B-6 (as pyridoxine hydrochloride) 100 mg 5000% Folic Acid 400 mcg 100% Biotin 2000 mcg 667% Pantothenic Acid (as calcium pantothenate) 250 mg 2500% Zinc (amino acid chelate) 5 mg 33% Copper (as amino acid chelate) 1 mg 50% Iodine 150 mcg 100% Choline (bitartrate) 250 mg * Inositol (monophosphate) 250 mg * para-Aminobenzoic acid 100 mg * L-Cysteine 100 mg * Silica 60 mg * MSM (Methylsulfonoylmethane) 50 mg * Ginkgo Biloba (24% extract) 30 mg * Saw Palmetto (40-45% extract) 200 mg * Pygeum Powder 50 mg * Beta-Sitosterol 150 mg * Green Tea (40% extract) 50 mg * Grape Seed (5:1 extract) 100 mg * Soy Isoflavones 10 mg * Red Clover (1%) 150 mg * Mexican Wild Yam (12.5% extract) 5 mg * Stinging nettle 25 mg * Sarsaparilla root 100 mg *

        You're welcome. Borage oil is good too - it contains GLA, rare acid ! I know, same reason why I don't take propecia as well. But You'd be surprised - even on this forum, if You go from thread to thread reading peoples' experiences - theres plenty of those who have quit the drug due to side effects or lack of results.. and some of those have taken the drug for years.

        Extract is much more potent - either for black or green tea. I've read extract is even up to 10 x more potent. You'd need to drink 10 cups of tea to achieve the effect of 1 tablet of extract.

        There are good bunch of ingredients in that product. But I use most of them and many in greater concentration individually.

          One month is not long enough to make a reasonable or realistic assessment of whether something is working or not. Treating hair loss takes a painfully long time. It typically takes six to twelve months before you will actually know if something is working for you.

          If any natural treatment actually could work well enough to be useful in treating hereditary hair loss, it would very likely have similar side effects as Propecia or Finasteride.

          The only thing in your regimen that actually can do anything to treat hereditary hair loss is Minoxidil.

          Minoxidil works everywhere miniaturized hair still exists. Minoxidil does not care where on your head the miniaturized hair is. However, I do not believe there is much a male can do to prevent a male hair line from developing because this is a natural and normal masculine trait, like bigger hands, bigger feet, lower voice and so on.

            Thank you again my friend. I'll look into getting tea extract and grape seed extract. Anything that helps.

              You're very welcome. Best of luck and take care. Also, please keep me updated, as we use very similar regimens, I'd like to compare the progress.. I'm roughly near to end 1st month of my current regimen.. and fingers crossed in the months to follow the progress should be more visible.

              PS. You already have green and grape extract in that product. If You use 3 or more tablets, its pretty much good already, You can only add up if You wish.

                I already know what you are going to see. I know what you are going to see 12, 18, 24 and even 36 months from now if you stay this course.

                  something tells me that if propecia worked for you, you wouldn't be here bashing it with your bogus studies...

                    That's exactly right.
                    There is no difference in HOW you reduce DHT in your body. If your body can't handle that reduction, then you will get side effects.

                    All those "natural" treatments like saw palmetto and beta sitosterol work in a same way as Propecia except that they are much weaker.
                    What makes you think that just because they sell them in every grocery store that you won't react badly to them?

                      Hi Tracy, I didn't even notice your response earlier. I actually have not seen any difference in growing new hair but I do believe it's working because it seems to have taken care of my acne problem. I also feel like I'm losing less hair but maybe it has to do with the shedding cycle... I know that NW2 isn't that bad but I have a feeling i'll head straight into NW3 shortly after so if I can at least halt it at NW2 I will be very happy.

                      You're right though, Just because something is natural doesn't mean it's necessarily safe... Many natural herbs can be very dangerous for certain people. I'm not saying the above mentioned herbs are dangerous but I understand what you mean.

                      I guess I'll gain more info as I search throughout the forums. I was really just wondering if hairomega would at least work to maintain hair. This is really my first hair loss regimen so if I don't see any results in 9-12 months I'll know that hairomega wasn't effective. I really was considering starting propecia until I read all these horrible reviews on the product all over the internet. Then again I've also read a couple reviews that say minoxidil makes you lose your hairline completely! Thankfully I've read more positive reviews on minoxidil than bad ones. I will keep propecia in mind if my hairloss is worse in a year from now.

                      One website was saying that propecia lowers DHT in the blood stream so that's why it's more effective than other natural DHT blockers. saw palmetto has no effect on DHT levels in the bloodstream but I think a combination of herbs like pygeum, grape extract and the ones listed above make it more effective.

                        that's a shitty way to judge a product ESPECIALLY when it's a drug
                        Read what the scientists and doctors say about it instead of some johnny from iowa...

                          I think I've read saw palmetto blocked DHT in all areas.
                          But if You're right - its even better.. where DHT makes damage is in folicles, if eliminated there, elsewhere doesn't really matter.

                            True true. I'll consider propecia if I don't notice a change using the 'natural' way. I have to try the natural way for myself to see if it works. I'll keep you all updated on what happens with the hairomega and minoxidil combo.

                            stressedtothebald, what I meant was I think propecia works better because it actually lowers DHT in your bloodstream. Correct me if I'm wrong but if propecia doesn't work to halt your hair loss then I don't think any other DHT blocker will be as effective unless it's a topical DHT blocker.

                            I definitely want to get the nizoral shampoo to add once or twice a week to my regimen...

                              Contrary to popular belief, propecia doesn't work for everyone. Just browse here on the forum and You'll see people talking about it. Just recently I've read threads, one guy was using propecia for 5 years and it did nothing in terms of regrowth, the other guy was using for 3,5+ years..

                              More importantly, You are gambling with extremely dangerous side effects - including permanent erectile dysfunction, depression and cancer, just to name a few..
