Spironolactone lowers adrenal androstenedione levels by inhibiting 17α-hydroxylase and 17,20-lyase, and reduces DHEA-sulfate levels by inhibiting 3β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase. Its primary mechanisms of action are the blockade of androgen receptors and the inhibition of 5α-reductase, as well...

You are mistaken; everything can be restored. At a younger age—say, 30 to 40—it is still possible to regrow hair with HRT.After age 50, it becomes more difficult because the body's processes are no longer as rapid.

No, in 2019–2020 I took spironolactone orally—50 mg at breakfast and 50 mg at dinner—along with 3 mg of estradiol gel. Now I take only 25 mg at breakfast and 1 mg of estradiol gel.

No, I’m not transgender; I used this to restore my hair to a Norwood 0. Taking spironolactone and estradiol allows hair to grow back to a Norwood 0. Many transgender people have proven this; your transgender friends probably aren't taking the kind of spironolactone that lowers the two...

Yes, four pumps of Estrogel, plus 100 mg of spironolactone split into two doses—one at breakfast and one at dinner. I believe I achieved those results thanks to the estradiol and the androgen receptor blockade provided by the spironolactone. Right now, I’m experimenting with much lower doses to...

I completely regrew the hair on my receding hairline at this estradiol dosage.

From 2019 to 2020, I was taking 3 mg of Estrogel; I had a blood test for estradiol, and 9 hours later, my estradiol level was 850 pmol/L and my testosterone level was 0.

Absolutely all androgens—testosterone, DHT, androstenedione, and DHEA-sulfate—are harmful to hair. If your cells lack sufficient aromatase—the enzyme that converts androgens into estrogens—hair loss will occur.

Apply to clean skin—specifically the shoulders, forearms, and arms (excluding the hands).

I used 3 mg in 2019–2020; that gave me 800–850 pmol—roughly 200 pg—meaning 1 mg yielded 50–60 pg. In terms of blood concentrations, it delivers exactly what the studies claim.

0.6% is the estradiol concentration in 0.75 mg of gel. I buy it at any pharmacy.

I’ve gone back to taking spironolactone—it’s the best medication for restoring hair growth in the androgen-sensitive areas. My standard dose is 25 mg, taken after breakfast. I’ve recently changed my dosing schedule, moving it to the morning and combining it with 1 mg of estradiol gel...

All you need to stimulate growth in balding areas is estradiol and an androgen inhibitor.
