Best non-finasteride option to stop loss? Help out a returning old timer...

[RockyMtn]

I use it aswell have been the past 2 half years now;

15% minoxidil
0.1% finesteride
5% azelaic acid
0.25% progesteone
0.025% tretinoin
0.1% Hydocortisone.

Cool, thanks Jazz! Are there any studies showing that 15% minox would be more effective than 5%? Also, at 15%, does your mixture come as a lotion or liquid?

Thanks!

She has replied and stated they are looking for Bimatroprost powder, I'm pretty sure she can formulate 1/2% depending if she can get the powder. I have emailed her back asking when and if they can formulate the 1/2% .

Hi jazz we spoke via email, I added what you recommended the same as you but 1.5% Azelaic and 0.05% fin because I suffer sides when taking it orally.

Hey bro I'm so sorry I'm always trying to help people I forget who is who lol, I'm glad your are doing well and hope everything works out well for you .

There's no way she will be able to get setipiprant because it's not fda approved, but bim at 1-2% would be amazing

Let's see I have emailed her back in regards to the powder and I have asked about the 1/2% .

Hey bro the 15% comes in more creamy liquid form, the 12.5% is what my friend uses and stated it is more liquid. I do not know about studies but from my own experience the higher % and mixture of additives has made a huge difference for me.

Hey bro no worry I'm only doing what's best for the community as these forums were the ones who helped me from depression during my hairloss not my useless doctors and dermatologists.

Anyways I have emailed Susan in regards to Bimatroprost so will keep you guys informed, I must go sleep now as I just spent last 2 hours replying to emails and forum questions lol.

The best advice I can give is to take Standardized Saw Palmetto Extract around 300mg-500mg per day. Just make sure its Standardized. Also you can add Minoxidil 5% to your regime. These two are the only safe choices you have recently.

Awesome! Thanks so much!

No problem, she will most probably reply later as it's sleep time in the US for her lol.
