    There's a difference between follicles that are miniaturized and those that have stopped producing hair altogether. What works on the former may not necessarily work on the latter.

      You also have to be careful about how that growth is measured. If you have 100 hairs in a given area of your head and some treatment increases that hair count to 200, that's a 100% increase based on the existing hair count. But if that area of your head initially held 5,000 hairs prior to the onset of MPB, an increase of 100 hairs isn't going to make any cosmetic difference to your appearance. You would have to hope that such a treatment was compoundable to be effective.

              HSC isn't going to be perfect, but it's the future super-treatment that seems (IMO) the most likely to end up having mass-market affordability. If it tends up costing in the same region as laser eye treatments (Lasik and so on), or better, even cheaper than that, it's there.

                    People have reported diminished mental capability and depression as side effects of fin.

                      That is so bull. No way in hell does fin cause diminished mental capability. Its amazing what people on this drug believe it can cause. Been on fin for 11 months and no side effects at all.

                          It caused my morning erections to pretty much vanish. But they are back with a vengeance now that I've stopped taking it.

                          My god I hope Histogen works!!!

                            Itīs funny how people can even think that depression is a side effect of fin. Donīt you think that people that goes on fin have depression from hair loss? I can buy that those who have some dick problems of fin can get depression but otherwise hell no!

                              If histogen can make my thinning hair follicles to produce full-thickness and produce with the help of fine normal hair for about 10 years at a reasonable price, I will leave the hair depression a decade!!! I will also make a histogen tattoo! Please god make this work!

                                But we also have to keep in mind that hair thicknes has also increased by 20% or something like that which makes a difference too.

                                And it was the first trial, im looking forward to the trial that seems to be running right now, in which they will inject more of the HSC i think.

                                But you are probably right in terms of keeping the expectations down as long as we dont have absolutely clear data
