Did Anybody Try He Shou Wu Topical By Any Chance?

"The hair growth promotion effect of oral PMR was most probably mediated by the expression of FGF-7, while topical PMRP promotes hair growth by the stimulation of SHH expression" - https://www.hindawi.com/journals/ecam/2015/517901/

I remember Swiss taking the normal supplement. However reading that topical relates to SHH I got interested. There are also tinctures around.

Sorry, Shh and FGF are about growth factors. 5α-reductase is a fairly irrelevant topic. You can just take dutasteride/finasteride/Ru or whatever to block it. More interesting are growthfactors (PGE2, wnt-pathway, Shh...) and blocking those factors that inhibit growth (DKK1, PGD2, NF-KB, Histamine, GPR44...).

It is more than just one button deciding about growth or decease.
