Of course there is a reason for the FDA to be in this discussion. If the FDA is just a puppet of the pharmaceutical industry (which many people think they are), then they are going to be acting in the best interest of the pharmaceutical industry and not the general public. Not to mention the FDA being in the hip pocket of all the big lobbyists. If most (if not all) hair-related doctors make their money off of hair transplants, then I doubt they would want any non-surgical procedure cutting into their profit margins. It is common knowledge that the FDA is corrupt, but there are lots of elements of the scientific community that are corrupt as well. Look at the example that I provided with Regenerx. They've had a worldwide patent out for almost 10 years for using the chemical Thymosin Beta 4 to regrow hair. Yet they haven't done anything with it, and since they have a patent on using that chemical for hair growth, only they can use this method to regrow hair. I remember about a year and a half ago, a Korean company called Adistem was going to sell a product containing Thymosin Beta 4 to regrow hair, yet they had to stop after only a couple of months because Regenerx was going to sue the pants off of them. The bottom line with this mess is that either Regenerx can develop a hair regrowth product using Thymosin Beta 4, or no one else can. And Regenerx hasn't even attempted to develop anything in almost 10 years. That right there is a prime example of the scientific community putting their own profit ahead of the health and well-being of the general public.
And it is totally true that one of the main reasons that there is no cure for baldness is because there aren't nearly enough people/companies willing to try new methods on humans. Histogen and Replicel are just two minor exceptions to the rule. Male pattern baldness is such a widespread disease (I call it a disease) yet there are only a handful of companies/people even willing to try to develop any kind of treatment or cure to combat it. How the hell can you even know if something is going to work if its not even tested on humans in the first place? All of the chemicals that I have mentioned (Noggin, BMP inhibitors, Laminin 511) have been said to possibly be able stimulate robust hair growth in humans but nobody is gonna know unless they're tested on humans. Some of these chemicals have been mentioned for more than 10 years to possibly regrow hair in humans yet no one is even trying them out. And if these scientists don't think that these chemicals have any potential to regrow hair in humans, then stop touting them to scientific publications as if they do have some hair regrowth benefit. I can understand if there were a bunch of efforts being tried to regrow hair in humans and they somehow failed to do so. Then I would at least know that the companies and scientists are trying to do something to combat hair loss. But there are hardly any new efforts to do so at all.
Your calling me "blind to simple reasoning" is just absolutely ridiculous and frankly you don't know what you're talking about. You compare testing more potential hair regrowth solutions to Mengele's methods, and I'm supposedly "blind to simple reasoning"? Yeah right. Ever since I started losing my hair, all I've been doing is researching potential methods to regrow hair so I know quite a bit about chemicals like Noggin and Laminin 511 because I've read the scientific studies on their potential to regrow hair. I've e-mailed more than 100 of these scientists and even talked to several of them on the phone. So I do know what I'm talking about.
And you say you're not on "some other team against me", yet more than half of your posts on here are spent arguing with me.
