Has anyone else here been using seti either topically or orally, then stopped and noticed hair getting thinner or weaker?

I was taking about 900mg daily for a few months and hair loss seemed to slow down. I ran out in late Jan and ever since my hair has gotten lighter in color and finer, but i havent noticed it falling out at a greater rate though.

Was hoping someone might have an answer as to why this is happening or if maybe knows if my hair became dependent on the seti and is now taking a loss in quality

The same thing happened to me back in January i ran out for a month or so and my hair got really weak, finer and lighter in colour as you said. I am not sure if this was because it was because of the hair being dependant on the Seti... the strange thing was that i was still on CB until i got some more seti and i didn't expect to see the drop in quality that i saw, because i thought the CB would continue to protect me. I got back on Seti and the quality improved again after another 6 weeks.

Same thing when you drop any treatment. DHT/PGD2 are attacking your follicles again.

This shouldn't have been the case with me though as i was continuing to use 50mg per day of CB in the interim until i ordered more Seti but the hair quality still deteriorated.

There would still be a drop in hair quality after dropping Seti though. 50mg of CB isn't going to stop all the PGD2 in your scalp.

Maybe 900mg of seti + 50mg of CB is substantially stronger than 50mg of CB alone.

Why are you using it orally and not topically?
Did you get side effects?
Who did you buy it from?

yeah didn't have any for months then the sides slowly crept up on me... el duterino noticed the same thing when he was doing 50mg per day and had to drop down... another member on here mentioned the same thing in PM he sent to me... the sides were comparable to RU but not as harsh... lowering the dose was the answer... it could be batch dependant from kane, the last batch i had i was doing 50mg and didnt notice any sides, or they have just taken months to creep up on me...

uhm... some points:
- hair getting finer in few weeks is more likely a cosmetic effect; miniaturization cannot occur so fast, and on the whole shaft
- topical AA sides should be almost immediate, right?
- I expect no sides from CB, and this is beyond theory now... it should be side-effects free even if you eat that. The only chance to get some systemic sides would be IV.
- I did CB up to 95 mg ED, and no sides. Now travelling at 50mg ED, 2 months in
- some of the sides that people experience might be due to adjustment waves from previous treatments (e.g. finasteride)
- anyway, 25mg (1%) should be as good as 5%
- there's a chance that CB is not always at the same level of quality; this could have some impact on sides

what CB vehicle are you using, lynney?

ok. Neo could be quite pushing the CB down.
Not that it means it causes systemic sides, but a part of it would be inactivated into cortexolone. So, wasted.

I'm on ethanol + PG 5% + transcutol 2%.

How do you know if CB from Kane isn't just RU? Did you notice that it looked different or that it dissolved different from RU? In case you tried both that is.

I think we're wasting our time on the "RU scam plot". If you were a clever chinese scammer and you would like to scam a bunch of antiandrogen hypersensitive male pattern baldness sufferers, what would you sell them? RU? Really? You would be 100% sure you would be spotted.
I would send an inert white crystalline powder: in the very first days, no sides (hooray!), then wait for some months before noticing it's not doing anything for you... in the meantime, the poor male pattern baldness sufferer has spent 100s of $ in dust.

We're lucky enough because in our group buy we have people with some interesting properties: very strong male pattern baldness itching, and very high sensitivity to objective sex sides (ball ache). All in the same person.
So, if they use a mild or fake AA, itching won't go away (corticosteroids help mildly in that).
But if you give them strong AAs, ball ache raises almost immediately.
Afaik there are few compounds that can fit both requirements, and CB is one of them.

So we have at least a measure of these parameters.

I was personally using it orally because it was just easier to stick to that protocal than going topical.
Im kinda glad im not the only one that sees this, so maybe when i start back up again things will stabalize

Hey lynney45, can you tell me how i can get on the stopaga forum and become a member. The GB im on is taking forever to launch this new batch

More on my condition currently, hair is thinner and lighter in color. Vertex is going away fast and hairline is receding back quickly too. This all really started 2-3 months ago, once i ran out of seti
