Oleic acid is beneficial, but I think it is better if you add a tiny amount of lye to make it less acidic, and I don't think you have the ability to add the right amount. I don't think oleic acid is very strong, and I think other stuff is more important.
If they did not have propylene glycol, you could just use your minoxdil.
Here is my regimen advice:
Buy 5% minoxidil. Use a bottle at night, perhaps by itself, incase is made ineffective by other stuff. Probably not, though.
Have a separate bottle for the morning, which you may wear to work. Dilute it with everclear. Do 36mL of minoxidil to 24mL of everclear. That gives you 3% minoxidil in a vehicle that dries fast, and maybe almost as strong as the 5%. Add 2 borage seed oil capsules to it. They will help your scalp tolerate the alcohol, and will fight inflammation, and give your scalp some good fatty acids. You can put some capsules in the 5% to help inflammation there too if you are sensitive to propylene glycol. To the morning bottle, add 500mg of apple poly, 500mg of green tea extract, and 240mg of grapeseed extract, and maybe a little SOD if you want. That combo will fight hair loss in many ways even after some DHT lands on the androgen receptor. If you can buy some DMSO and octyl salicylate and add 2 mL of each to your mixture, that will greatly increase absorption and take it deep. Quirt 2-4 avodart in there. That is your powerful mixture, and your 5% minoxidil stays clean except for the borage oil so you know it will work. If you can buy PG, you can make your own separate mixture for the night as well, and apply it after the minoxidil, since they are not likely to react fast enough to be a problem on the scalp.
Take dutas. I think it may be better to take 3 per week, and put some on your scalp, so you don't get the big testosterone spike, but still get your scalp taken care off. This is based on the spike being caused by brain DHT dropping and the brain telling the testes to make more testosterone. Grapefruit juice saves money by letting the dutasteride build up.
eat tumeric powder. and drink green tea. all this stuff is needed everywhere in your body. the same stuff that attacks hair may hurt your body too.
