      Pumpkin Seed Oil works similar to Fin in that it can inhibit 5-alpha reductase, which will reduce the amount of DHT. There is pumpkin seed oil in a prostate health supplement that I take. If the men in that test didn't report any extreme sexual sides, that's fantastic.

      @bmoreno, considering PSO operates like Fin, I wouldn't do such a big dosage too quickly. Maybe 600-800 if you want more and ramp up if all is well.

          I do. I am a girl, so I am not that exposed to the sexual sides like men, but i don't want to mess with my hormones. I use it as a topical, also i eat pumpkin seed, and use pumpkin seed oil to cook. You can use it as a carrier for other oils : emu oil, castor oil (PGE2), primrose evening oil (DGLA), borage oil (DGLA).

              Hi,

              Castor oil is known to be good for hair. Also I read that, esides primrose evening oil, borage oil (huile de bourrache/ don't really know the englis translation) is also very good, cause it contains DGA - DGLA. Beware that rosemary oil is an essential oil, you must not put too much drops (gouttes) on your concotion, essential oils are powerful.
              Thank you for sharing. I did some research into Borage oil and I'm very interested. I'm thinking of making a mixture of Borage Oil and Rosemary Essential Oil, with Pumpkin Seed Oil as a carrier for the two. Thoughts?

              I have had trouble finding a Borage oil source that I trust. Can anyone make a recommendation?

                I think it's a good mixture. The thing is you have to put it on your scalp often (at least 3 times a week i'd say). You should add castor oil or put it alone on your scalp too. Castor oil = PGE2 (PGE2 have been showed to be higher in fullhead scalps, low in balding sclaps).

                Do you know Aroma-zone ? They have a lot of oils and it's cheap and natural.

                  Now I need a source of Castor oil, too.

                  I saw your link to Aroma-Zone, but it's all in French and I don't know how to find anything. Would you be willing to direct me to the items I need (or give me the French names)? Thank you!

                        You're wonderful! I just received my oils from Aroma Zone . Very low prices indeed and good variety. Shipping cost more than the oils

                        Question - what is the point of Pumpkin Seed Oil (topical)? The castor oil I bought is regular Castor Oil, not essential Castor Oil, so can't I just use the Castor Oil as the carrier oil for the rosemary and borage?
