    I used that Better Than Blue comfort cream that I mentioned above a couple of times but it had a slight burning sensation on my skin, probably due to the herbs. I only used it twice topically and have not used it since.


    9 Month Update --

    For the past 3 weeks I've been taking Propecia every other day -- M, W, F, Sunday, and using my homemade herbal hair growth tincture and spironolactone cream topically, once every other day at night. I no longer use the ketoconazole shampoo as it was drying my hair out too much and there is really no need for it.

    Currently I only shampoo my hair every other day (the morning after the night I applied the topical products). I use a natural coconut based shampoo. I like the fact that I don't have to get a shower and wash my hair every day like I had to when I was applying the topical treatments daily. Now every other day I can just get up and style my hair and I'm ready to go. Less stress and less time.

    My hair loss has stopped. Current hair is regrowing quicker than normal and I constantly see new hairs sprouting up along the hairline.

    My hair has filled in where the hair loss was, and it is continuing to grow in a positive manner. The hairs are still somewhat short in the new growth areas (about 1-2") so when my hair is wet, there is still noticeable thinning appearance.

    However, when I dry my hair with a blow dryer and style my hair there is absolutely NO detection of hair loss. My hair has regained it's youthful appearance.

    It is only going to get better as time goes on.

    I am thrilled! :-)

    Will keep you all updated on my progress.

    Where did you buy all those organic ingredients?? The Hibiscus rosa-sinensis is very interesting and would love to buy it. Did you buy it off a site? or A store?

    Hi.

    There are so many varieties of hibiscus that if you buy it at a store it might be miss labeled. So I decided to buy mine from a hibiscus specialist to be sure I got the Rosa-Sinensis variety.

    I bought mine from here:

    alright is it possible to make your remedy without that stem u get from your friend or is it a critical ingredient? Also, just to make it all simple, i just add everything together and mix with the amount of alcohol u said?

    I suppose. If you read the study it is a critical ingredient.

    "just to make it all simple, i just add everything together and mix with the amount of alcohol u said?"

    Yep.

    I've heard Spironolactone does indeed work for some, but the sides are apparently pretty brutal.
