It's another "saw palmetto" pill, I'm thinking. Just another scam, in a long line of scams.

As a general rule, anytime anyone says anything "works as well as Propecia" they're lying. Aside from Rogaine, no other product has been tested for hair loss to the extent that Propecia has. So no such claims can be made about any other product on planet earth.

Just to avoid any misunderstanding that we worship and harp on FDA approval ... FDA approval is almost never specified on this site when it comes to judging the validity of a product. I have never endorsed FDA approval as the only method of determining legitimacy simply because FDA approval only means someone had a legit product *and* a lot of cash. Legit products can exist without the cash, and without FDA approval.Bismarck said:
The differentiation I was hoping to make was just on the *extent* of testing. No other product has been tested to the *extent* that Propecia has. Meaning ... 1,553 people ... over a period of 2 years. Logically you can't make any claims about a product working "as well as propecia" unless you do a 1,553 person 2 year study, too. That was the logic behind it.
FDA approval is nearly irrelevant to me in the legitimacy department... except that they really rigorously test things. The label stamped on it however, doesn't mean too much to me. I put as much faith in Topical spironolactone + Revivogen for my own hair, as I did in Propecia (or at least as much hope) ... and they of course aren't FDA approved.
Dutasteride is an exception.
