    Default PDG2 Stuff

    A few weeks ago lots of people were hyping about PDG2 inhibitors and such and on other forums I even read that it stopped hair loss completely for quite a few people who tried it. But the problem was it also inhibited PGE2 which was needed for hair growth. Iron dragon had some RAMATROBAN PDG2 receptor antagonist which didn't interfere with PGE2, isn't that the solution we want?? I haven't really been catching up with this PDG2 stuff lately, but no one talks about it anymore? Are people waiting for some sort of PDG2 inhibitor which will get clinically tested so that it is proved safe?

    I'm using ID's Ramatroban's solution once daily. Nothing to speak of yet. Frankly, not expecting anything but maintenance.

    Even maintenance would be amazing, there would no need for propecia and thus eliminates those scary side effects. But, I guess the question now is whether romatroban is safe or not. Could you please keep us updated with your progress, sides etc

    I get the strong impression that genuine PGD2 inhibitors will work (once dosage/purity/vehicle issues are sorted and agreed upon) BUT affecting that specific prostaglandin and crth2 receptor is only a piece in the puzzle, and won't do much on its own even in ideal situations, whatever those end up being.

    Its hard to know how just how genuine home experiences are unfortunately. Along with the chance of the drugs being duds, wrong concentration/vehicle etc there is also the powerful effect of placebo.

    Big concern is we don't know if the drug is penetrating the scalp enough....

    I don't think it would do much for hair dependant on minox

    I have a hard time believing the claims that it stopped their shedding

    There are people on forums that have used several compounds over the years and they claim all of them "at least stopped their shedding"

    It is too difficult to validate something like that, I've been using fin for 3 years, and I'm pretty sure I haven't regrow any new hair, but I have no idea if I have maintained or not

    Got a friend(NW2probably) who used Minox/MSM for a while and had a moderate result until he had Indo/Chromo(6 month ago) and let me tell you that i never seen a better hair quality(globaly) in my life, today hes like NW1.3, so i guess that the combinaison Minox/Indo+Chromo is a huge combo, but this kind of results are only possible for young guys with NW <= 2-2.5 for sure
