What should the dosage of PGE2 be?
According to this, the molecular weight of PGE2 is 352:

That looks pretty light and easy to penetrate skin, should work awesome, just like RU and even better with dermarolling, perhaps best when exfoliating skin and no more than 30 minutes after washing hair since sebum is then produced which does affect penetration.

my 1.5mm will arrive friday, im going out of town this weekend so i will start monday. i used a 1mm once every 5-7 days with minox for a few months around february but didnt see enough improvement to put up with the hassle. also my old roller was a 540 count wich actually causes micro cuts instead of micro holes.... not sure if tnis had something to do with lack of results. however, it was great for getting rid of some stretch marks i had. i was quite impressed. i do shave my head with a stubble guard so the roller should get great penetration and results will be quickly noticable.
as far as pge2 dosage... no one really knows. StoicOne is getting us a great deal on some, like $125 for 50mg that should last at least a couple of months. in the vitiligo pge2 trials re pigmentation of the skin was seen with just 0.5mg daily in a topical solution. so we know that that is a safe amount and that would make 50mg last 3+ months.

Just got my 1.5 mm dermaroller from amazon for 10 bucks. Will use it 2x a week with minox and along with ru 10mg x2 for 1 hour wash and rinse. If this work then this is the cheapest effective treatment to mpb.

Would anyone advise getting a 2mm dermaroller considering it will be rolling over a head WITH hair that will make a 2mm dermaroller more like 1.5mm considering it has to go through the layer of hair?

Upon reflection, I don't think 1.5mm was absolutely necessary for a couple of reasons:
1) My hair is already thin, it doesnt create that much of a thick layer for the dermaroller to go through.
2) My scalp skin is very thin, so the dermaroller doesn't have much to go through.
That said, its better to be safe than sorry so the 1.5mm I'd still recommend.
Interesting though that I'm balding in area's where there's a thinner layer of skin and everywhere else where theres a thicker layer of skin theres LOTS of hair.
Anyone know if scalp skin thickness has any kind of relation to the follicles?

Hey man, Any chance of showing the dermaroller you bought? Or does anyone else have any recommendations.
Thanks

What type of derma roller is everyone going to use?
I have one packed with needles, but I've seen others that have the needles very spaced.
I think that's the reason why I'm experiencing very little pain even when putting pressure, I don't think the needles are going all in
