CALLING ALL RU USERS - Time for another official RU thread

[kawnshawn]

Mega dosing RU and have been on it like a month and a half and still shedding. How the f*** can bodybuilders taking testosterone and anabolic steroids and maintain on this sh*t

Hi guys,

I opened my thread about some RU issues yesterday but had no replies yet.
Would be amazing if you could share your insights

I am almost out of RU, and am not sure if I should buy more.

 

[davesmith420]

I mean this in the nicest way; has anyone besides Irish and Hellrouser had success with RU? It seems like people who use it always end up dropping it because it didn't seem to do anything.

I've had success but I started it at the same time as everything else, which is typical.

 

[buckthorn]

it's been about a year now on it and I am done, not going to reorder... like everything else, I am 100% sure that it's made my hair thinner and lead to increased scalp inflammation.

What are you trying next?

Alpicort F?

Are there any vehicles that are not drying for the scalp (that are not KB or alcohol)?

 

[Afro_Vacancy]

Can liquid rogaine dissolve RU?

 

[Afro_Vacancy]

Yes. Absolutely. I have done it many, many times. It can only dissolve a certain concentration, however.
I mix 90mg in 3mL of Minoxidil. The first hour, some little snowflakes fly around. Let it sit in the freezer, bring it out before I shower, by the time I get out and get ready to apply, its perfectly clear.

You have to refreeze it every day?

How long do you guys do with 5 gram of raw powder? How much mg of RU do you actually apply with a 5% solution?

Thanks

 

[INT]

50mg/mL.

You go until its out lol Depends on how you use it. So, 5 Grams is 5000mg. 5000/50 = 100. 100 applications, +/- 3 months.

Thanks for the reply.

And that would be enough for someone who would only use it for the NW3 area?

The premade version says: 50 mg/ml as well. Then how is premixing more expensive? Premixed 50 mg/ml costs around $50 en 5 g raw powder costs $80?

Sorry if I am missing something very simple here, had a long long day...

 

[Afro_Vacancy]

I just ordered 3 grams of RU.

I've been taking 15 mg/day (maybe the smallest dose on the forum), so that should last me ~200 days.

I hope it gets shipped without problems.

 

[INT]

So it seems like there is no way to apply RU without bloody alcohol?

No idea, are you Muslim or something?

 

[INT]

No idea, are you Muslim or something?

Haha no but I have very dry hair and alcohol makes it dry out even more.

 

[Prada1]

Im pretty sure in Islam alcohol is allowed for "medical" purposes. lol

I do exactly the same. 80 mg Ru in 3 mL minoxidil. I used to think you had to do the whole eth/pg mix but I'm trying out this mix instead and the RU does dissolve ok. any results yet?

 

[Maddy17]

buckthorn, have you looked into PG pathways in conjunction with your anti androgen regime? You may find that highly beneficial. I.e Swiss temples regime, also anti-inflammatories, increasing pge2 ect

Can you elaborate on your suggestions, please!
