******* 5% ?

[LesterB]

O.K., I'll rephrase. ******* is not available via legitimate channels in the US.

At best, ******* is just another hokey product - an over priced concoction of generic Minoxidil and "other stuff". At worse, ******* might cause harm. 5α-reductase.

Your body is your body and your money is your money. Do with them what you want. I need results and I need the treatments to be safe, so I'll stick with the FDA approved treatments.

mmh.. hold on.

I found ******* to be one of the very few formulations of minoxidil my scalp could tolerate.
Topical finasteride is a topic that is open to debate (with studies in hand), but the way I see it *******15plus (there are quite a few different variations on this theme) is minoxidil + finasteride, with the addition of azelaic acid, in a propylene glycol-free formulation.

mmh.. hold on.

You added stuff to my post when you quoted me. That is not right.

You need to talk to a doctor who is experienced in treating hair loss.

sorry, that was a copy-paste which did not work very well.

At least you can see that "5α-reductase" does not quite fit in well with what you were saying. My apologies.
