Nobody on this forum is capable of that and the only ones in the world that are, are the following people:

Dr. Takashi Tsuji
Dr. George Cotsarelis
Dr. Beren Atac
Dr. Gerd Lindner
Dr. Rolf Hoffmann
Dr. Angela Christiano

That's it. I'd love to put Dr. Gail Naughton into the mix, but Histogen hasn't shown to completely reverse NW6 to NW6, although their results are incredible.

I'd put Naughton's name in the mix because I'm not a NW6. I also think that you shouldn't ignore Samumed. Either Samumed has something special or they're foolish because they're starting to invest heavily in SM04554. Samumed knows how well SM04554 performed in their original phase 2 study and they invested more cash into a second phase 2 study. I don't think they would have done that if SM04554 didn't perform better than current treatments in the original phase 2.

Jesus. You all just shut down any advice or hope if it doesn't involve "Wow, your life sucks. You might as well off yourself and put everyone else out of the misery of having to look at your disgusting baldness." I'm now realizing that you don't want encouragement or hope, but someone to vent to...I get it. Just remember not to sound ungrateful or pitiful when people try to help...that pity party (when people try to help) is far more unattractive and annoying to the people around you than baldness.

I really do wish the best of luck to you, and I'm sorry you have to go through such emotional distress over all this.

Peace out.

Judging by some of your earlier posts, I do realize that you are probably a level-headed guy who is actually trying to help. The problem is that we've received the "hit the gym and be fit" advice countless times already and it always comes from people who have barely any hair loss whatsoever. At least not enough hair loss to be even considered some one who is remotely balding. In order to truly understand the devastation of true hair loss (and not just simple hairline recession or an NW2), a person really needs to firsthand experience it for themselves. The erosion of their looks, the loss of their identity, the inability to recognize themselves in their own skin. That doesn't come with keeping most of your hair, which you say you have done. I have friends who have essentially full heads of hair who give me the same advice and I just know that if they were in my shoes, they'd be singing a completely different tune. I mean, there is a reason that even though you're married and have kids, that you're still taking finasteride to ensure that you yourself do not go bald.

Less actually, when you consider Dr. Atac and Dr. Lindner as one team and Dr. Christiano focusing pretty much exclusively on Alopecia Areata instead of Androgenic Alopecia (Male Pattern Baldness).

Another thing about SM04554 that seems hopeful is that we aren't hearing anything negative about it. First of all, we know that there were 2 TBT posters in the original phase 2 study who were posting and then they suddenly stopped. They were very open and they were talking freely and then all of a sudden they both stopped talking. One of them was even saying that one of the nurses told him she hadn't seen any regrowth on any subjects yet (At that point in time the nurse would not have knows whether or not the drug works). That phase 2 study is now completely over and yet both of those posters remain silent. Since the study is completely over those two guys have no reason to fear Samumed might kick them out of the study for releasing information. So why are they quiet? I've played this out numerous times in my head and the only reasons I can think of for why they remain silent is that the drug worked and they want to stay friendly with Samumed because they think they might need Samumed in the future. I definitely do not think either of those two men dropped out of the study because if they had dropped out of the study and told Samumed to kiss-off then they would be posting again. I think those two guys are trying to stay on good terms with Samumed and I think that's a good sign.

And there were other people in the study besides those two posters. None of the subjects are talking. Not one of them. No information is coming out except for the information that Samumed is releasing. Usually some information leaks out from these studies. Nobody has any information except Samumed. Samumed has been very successful at keeping a tight lid on the information and that seems kind of odd to me, especially for a company new to this clinical trial stuff. When drugs don't work the subjects walk away and release information and then guys like Staten Island Joe disclose the information to everybody. But that is not happening with SM04554. Why not? I think it's because ALL of the subjects saw enough (and heard enough from the medical staff) to know that the drug worked at least somewhat better than available treatments so the subjects are all trying to stay on friendly terms with Samumed.

It's very hard to understand why there is no negative information leaking if the drug did not work. If the drug did not work I think that the test subjects would all be walking away grumbling and some of that would leak onto the internet, but were not hearing one negative thing from anyone.

F2005, what is your level of hair loss? Is the medication you're using working?

EvilLocks, I'm not saying that ALL of the relationships involving gold-digger women and guys with money are all disgusting relationships but those relationships are not what I would want. I would rather be alone and know that my life was destroyed by a disfigurement beyond my control than be in a relationship like that.

You see, if a man buys a woman, an idea which has been recommended to me, she does not truly WANT to be with him. If she doesn't truly want to be with him she may leave him after he falls in love with her, which would be very painful. Or it could lead to her cheating on him, which would upset him a great deal. Look at what happened when Nicole Simpson Brown didn't want OJ Simpson anymore. All across the world guys are becoming very upset because the women they want don't want them. It's making guys very angry and hurt, and it's causing tragic things to happen, including suicides and even murders.

What is the point of being in a relationship with a women who's not emotionally attached, and involved with you?



My as well invest your money in prostitutes, because that's essentially what you have when you lease a women with a title labeled girlfriend. Atleast with a prostitute, the strings aren't attached, and you can go separate ways.



Zero point being with a women unless she's physically, and emotionally connected. 'chemistry as they say'
