Valuable or invaluable - we will leave that for the readers to decide. Again, this was not meant to discredit you in any sense, and more in light of a transplant, as many believe that it is the ultimate end of their hair loss.
Coming to the effort part - My math includes the time and resources that goes in the blood work afterwards, as well as procuring any medication, and does not stop at 20 seconds. But, I do agree with your learning part. Good luck with your experiment!
Fair enough. I thought you were being a jerk and you were not. My bad. You'd be surprised how many idiots post on here that have nothing to offer to others, just fish for information. I am defensive I'll admit. I am sorry.
My dad owns a lab and I can get bloodwork done everyday if I want for cents and since I am very interested in leaving my hormones alone this is totally worth it for me and fun to share. I understand why that would not be convenient for others
