Around a week in at 10g a day (ran 5g for like half a week before that). Those weak peach fuzzy hairs along the temples are strengthening by the day. Not by much but some are gaining length and some thickness but definitely looking more alive and beginning to "sprout".
Almost seems too good for such a short period. So afraid this'll come with a catch tho like them never going fully terminal or something. *KNOCK ON WOOD*
Will run 10 grams for like a month more then eventually stay at 20 grams indefinitely or until it feels/seems worthwhile.

I'm exactly the same ref not wanting to get to excited but it's very early and signs are excellent and incomparable to anything I've seen before. The way I see it even in a worst case scenario where the early signs don't progress into full length hairs my hair texture has without doubt improved and skin looks more youthfull and clear. Also generally feel more energized. I'm only on 5-10 oral and 3-4 sprays Topical per day. Think I'll up to 10-15 grams oral. Also not on any of the so called big 3, just small dose saw palmetto which probably does nothing. And magnesium oral/Topical daily. I'm remaining very optimistic and for the price it costs there's nothing to lose.

Yeah some supplements are as good as minoxidil for thickening. I doubt for regrowth. Also if you have diffuse thinning, especially with back and sides thinning, controlling inflammation is key to stopping shedding. Receders and vertex only, no chance. DHT is the problem IMO.
I’ve had generalized thinning, probably for the last 8 years. Didn’t notice anything for 4 years. Even now it appears minor to some people but I’ve lost over 50% because I started with a rug. The itch come and goes but has never been major. Finasteride gave me constant telogen effluvium. Didn’t work. I can’t be 100% I wouldn’t have had regrowth but I did give it a year… zix gave me oily skin. I already have high T so perhaps high zinc did this. Was still shedding crazy while using it.
For the last 3 months I’ve been supplementing with tocotrienols and grape seed extract. I had a 0 buzz the entire time. I’ve started growing for the last 2.5 weeks…absolutely zero shedding and my sh#t is looking thicker.
I’ve just ordered more. Touch wood this is working for me.

What kind of hair loss do you have?

Diffuse as well
Interesting. The outside of my lower shins have always been more sparse than the rest of my leg hair. Even in my teens and 20’s when I had a Bush on my head. What’s more interesting is that when I used finasteride both legs, lower outer calf when completely bald. They grew back when I quit. Perhaps we have the same hair loss. I believe inflammation and circulation is the cause. I could see my hair like yours when I’m in my 50’s, too. Dad is that you? But seriously, how was your hair when you were 35? If you remember.
And you’re saying tocotrienols didn’t help? I’m assuming you took them because you saw the studies.

Nothing noticeable. Granted— I’m taking so much sh*t, it’s hard to kno. But tocos won’t stop Hair loss on its own for 99% of people
No, tocotrienols definitely won’t stop hair loss but in my case they have thickened my hair and body hair like crazy. I’m only taking 2 supplements. These cover inflammation, circulation and thickening.
If you’re taking a cocktail then how do you know MSM works? It’s probably dutasteride but MSM will certainly give you thicker body hair. Tocotrienols, too!
