So, I'm thinking about taking my hair loss battle in a different direction since I'm probably going to have to remove propecia from the battle. After doing some research I've discovered the the following herbs seem to be TGF-Beta inhibitors which is actually the next step once androgens bind and their complex transcribes the DNA.
So, I'm curious to know what others think or if anyone has used any of these:
1. Astragalus - Huang Qi
2. Angelica or A. Sinensis - Dang Gui
3. Ligustrum Lucideum - Found in AvaFlu
All are recommended for assistance with viral illness, cancer, and to assist the immune system during chemotherapy as they all impact the immune system and regulate its function. So, I'm thinking about trying one of these and seeing where it takes me. I'm pretty much convinced that DHT is needed in the male body and lowering it in any way is not beneficial.
I'm interested to hear any feedback or any thoughts on this one.
Sorry if this is supposed to be in the herbal treatment section. It just seems like nobody goes there and I think that inhibiting TGF-beta is the key to preventing its effects which are to inhibit proliferation of hair follicle cells and scarring through fibrosis.
