I read on the hairlossinfo on my space that green tea was one of the cheapest anti androgens, and that you should mix the contents of two capsules with your minoxidil. Can any one confirm any results with Green tea extract? Also, I dunno if I wanna mix it with my minoxidil, instead would it be just as effective to mix it with a shampoo like revita?
Green tea Extract? For real?

I drink green tea too plus supplements.
Green tea has amazing health benefits.

I've been drinkin this stuff like crazy even before I knew it had any anti androgen effects. They have these gallon jugs of Arizona Green Tea I pick up at Walmart for less than $3. I was just wondering if It would be more potent taking them in a capsule form, or if using it as a topical would work. Or whether it really does work as an anti androgen at all.

topically > capsules > drinking cups of green tea

If it were me....I would just take the capsules....I personally hate topicals. Keep in mind there are no clinical trials on Green Tea being effective at all, this is all just speculation.

Yeah - I forget the exact ratio - but it's somthing like 2 capsules of green tea extract w/ ECGC equals drinking 10 cups of tea (again - forget the exact ratio).
Personally, I do both. 4 caps per day, 2 - 4 cups of tea - and in the summer make the move to iced green tea.
As far as topicals go - I went through a year's worth of "Back to Basics Green Tea" shampoo. It was a nice shampoo and inexpensive - but I'm pretty sure it didn't do anthing to prevent hairloss or promote new growth (in my instance).
