Hi,
It's been a long time since I have posted here. I have been using Revivogen, Dr Lee's spironolactone 5% cream once a day, and Nizoral every three days for a few years now and I can say that these treatments have definitely slowed down my hair loss. I tried other treatments like Propecia back when I was 24 but had really bad Telogen Effluvium reaction from it.
I am 30 now and over the years the frontal portion has been thinning slowly. I am a diffuse thinner so there is no real bald spots yet, but my hair has gradually thinned out all over, but more in the frontal portion. When I use a good shampoo like Revivogen shampoo or Nizoral, it hides the thinning but you can still see through the hair, especially under bright light. However, I am doing better then some younger family members who are fairly bald and others are just thinning.
Anyway, I was thinking of trying Fluridil and alternating it with Revivogen / spironolactone 5% cream nightly. So I would use Revivogen / spironolactone 5% one night, and then Fluridil the following night and then wash my hair in the morning. I want to see if Fluridil would offer any benefit over Revivogen / spironolactone 5% cream. Perhaps if I did respond better to Fluridil, I could slowly phase out Revivogen / spironolactone 5%, or just one of these treatments for Fluridil. I have had the thought of jumping on the Fluridil bandwagon for awhile now, but have not fully made up my mind.
Also, I know there is no data out there to compare, but which regimen do you think is more effective (Revivogen + spironolactone combo every night) or just Fluridil? I would still use Nizoral every three days like I am currently doing.
Your feedback would be appreciated (Bryan, HairLossTalk.com, or anyone else).
Thank you.
