Hi,
I read a lot of forums when I started noticing hairloss about 4-5 years ago (23-24 years old), and then again 1 year ago when I decided to do something about it.
So, now I think my hair-loss is under control (growing back pretty well) and I wanted to contribute my 2 cents and share what seems to be working pretty well for me. If this works for someone else, great. Be careful if you follow this and talk with a doctor. Its basically propecia but I also take a big handful of vitamins which also make me feel great!!!
I have been super stoked with the results of this and wanted to share it with whoever it can help. I have been doing this for 1 year and feel great, and have a lot more hair.
I take 1 mg finesteride (sic?) in addition to a bunch of good quality supplements (don't bother with cheap-o supplements since you will not absorb them):
For 5 of 7 days of the week:
-1/5 a pill of proscar for 5 of 7 days (same as one 1mg propecia)
Each of these daily, every day:
-Curcumin (look it up on mayo clinic website)
-Fish oil caps
-Cayenne pepper caps (now I just eat tons of spicy food and don't bother with the caps)
-good quality RAW multivitamin for men
-L-Lysine (1/2 a pill)
-L-taurine (1/2 a pill)
-B complex (1/2 a pill)
-Reservatrol (1/2 a pill)
-Neem Plus 1 pill. (look up "neem" its a traditional indian medicine used for a long time)
Topical: I also put 100% emu oil on my hair when taking a hot bath for about an hour once or twice a week. I think this helps, and have read that it is good for alopecia. Even if this isn't helping re-grow hair, I can tell its making my hair super healthy and stronger. I also only use shampoo once or twice a week (after the emu oil) and use good quality natural "organic" conditioner with biotin daily when I wash my hair.
I was loosing hair fast and have been using all these for 1 year and have re-grown most of my hair. Its really remarkable to me. It took about 6 months to see real progress but its been speeding up for the last 6 months. I really think that the supplements help kick the propecia up a notch. I not only have grown hair but I don't get sick when my buddies do and I feel great! I caution not to take a bunch of cheap-o supplements since I dont think they will do anything if you cant absorb them, or if they are weak. I chose these ones with some advice from a doctor friend.
Be careful when taking supplements since you might be allergic. Start slow, I take a lot of half pills to avoid overdoing it. All in all, this cost me about 250 bucks every 4 months. I live in Asia now so the proscar is super cheap, like 10 bucks every 4 months. Most of the cost is shipping US made good supplements from my hometown health-food store.
