Hello, everyone! I've lurked here for a few months now and decided to join. Great info and insight here.
About me: I'm 26 yrs old and I'm pretty sure my hairline has been receding for a few months now. It's not terrible or anything but I can see it. Being the proactive person I am, I intend to start fighting now.
I've heard good things about s-equol but I'm disappointed by the lack of experimentation with it. So I'd like to set up an experiment.
Here's my 3 month plan: I would get initial blood work and hormones checked (T, DHT, etc) as a baseline. I would then take 100mg of equol every day for a month. I would then have another test done and increase the dose to 200mg per day. For the final month, I would increase to 300mg per day. I believe that this would give good answers as to it's effect on Test levels.
Here's the problem: All this stuff is expensive! I've heard equol is high priced. Also I'd have to get 4 blood tests done to prove its efficiency, each costing at least a couple hundred.
Would anyone want to put in for this experiment? I would give regular updates with my hair as well as my health and any side effects. I may even start an email list for it.
Post here if you're interested. I can't wait to see if this stuff works!
