It will probably be out next year. I'm not sure where you got the "few years" part.Just another thing that may or may not ever amount to anything. Come back in a few years and see I guess. Nothing else to say as usual with this type of thing, but more endless speculation for the years of waiting.
if it is availble at a reasonable price and works, I may be inclined to use it as a shampoo
as for the prescription, apparently they are researching a formulation that would not need prescription. As someone underlined, this is not necessarily a good thing because it would mean fewer tests (and less accurate) are needed for commercialization.
Can someone explain why equol hasn't been tried as a treatment for male pattern baldness?
Hi,Could you email the Italian professor who invented this lotion and ask him for an update?
This will sum it up: we don't know when this will come out or how effective it is.
As I told in another thread, yesterday there was been a congress about AA. Also Brotzu has talked, but for only15 minutes.
Here is the video, FOR NOW NO ENGLISH SUBTITLES, but where you can see photos (NO Androgenetic Alopecia PHOTOS)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BqfKEPW0OfY (starts from 4:50, photos about AA from 17:20)
As I said, first of all NO PHOTO about Androgenetic Alopecia. Only a couple of photos about AA. But a baby with AA, initially completely bald, has received a very good grown after one years. If it is true, brotzu is a savior for AA sufferers and I am very happy for these unlucky babies.
However, let's do a brief summary:
He spoke about how he did this discovery (he was treating diabetes, not Androgenetic Alopecia or AA). He explained how capillarys are, how they work, and briefly where minoxidil acts. He told that there are two chemicals that are present in AA (slide at 9:00), that cause the block of the blood flow in the capillarys.
He studied PGE1, that was already present in literature for other stuff, and has studied what are the precursor of the PGE1, i.e DGLA.
Another thing observed, linoleic acid, facilitates the passage(flow?) of the endothelial cells. <--- here he was not clear
Then, the mechanism of creation of DHT (we know so much...).
At 11:43, finally, the explanation of liposomi. They charge positively liposomi, for increasing adhesion.
At 12:50 photo of hair and liposomi. 12:53, liposoma with electronic microscopy.
Then some pictures of liposomi and other stuff. At 14:18, see the slide (he repeated what is written xD). Other slide, that he skipped, because it was talked about hair for the previous speeches. At 15:00, slide about his experiment (we already know the details) did 7-8 years ago. He discovered that , not only diabetes was recovering, but also hair was restored, but with PGE1. Then some people with Androgenetic Alopecia want to try, and was stopped the hairloss.
Then they treated the baby (also with PGE1) with AA, and her hair was regrown!
(From 17:20 photos, that I don't think are so spectacular respect to the one at 19:00)
However he explained that he did not act on the cause of hairloss, but with this treatment, he blocks the mechanism of the hairloss.
He did a metaphor: imagine a billiard in which there is a cue that hit the balls. The cue is the cause of the hairloss, the balls that "go to the hole" is the hairloss. So with his treatment he blocks the cue(stress, other unknown causes...), he does not remove it.
Then, at 19:00, a new baby treated this time with DGLA (not a drug anymore) treated for 1 years (it is a photos from 22 april of this year!).
Conclusions about that he discovered how to treat symptom, but we must discover the cause.
I am sorry, it is confusionary, but I did the best
Someone has asked some questions about Androgenetic Alopecia and the answers are:
-This lotion improved the microcirculation better thant the minoxidil
-He thinks it will be available next years
-It does not block cause of Androgenetic Alopecia, but inhibit effects
-It seems that could substitute finasteride
Question: Must we take the lotion everytime?
Answer: On a baby we stopped after 1 year and her hair are still present
(my comment: it is AA, not Androgenetic Alopecia)
-If Androgenetic Alopecia is still new (4,5 years) can make regrown, if present from 20, 30 years, unlikely...
------------------------
My final comment: we will send an email to fidia and we keep up you...
Let's try, in the meantime, how to get linoleic acid and let's prepare this lotion witn linoleic acid (maybe less effective than DGLA, but maybe effective the same)...

Fantastic news.
The cure is upon us i think, we only need to hold out one more year.
