Nizoral contains ketoconazole, which is an antiandrogen. It is similar, but it is weaker and is poorly absorbed. It's still helpful but it's not a replacement for something like RU.
is it something you would stack on top of RU and everything else?

Some people talk about the hazards of RU like heart palpitations and lung secretions (not good during covid lol) or a vast varying vague list of them I've seen.

Sure, you can use keto shampoo 2-3x a week.

And there are anecdotal reports of those kinds of side effects with RU. I personally never had an issue with it. It has a short half-life and will clear the system quickly, so it's easy to drop if you need to. You can always adjust dosages as needed.

hopefully that's not some form of programmed obsolescence that is used to make us buy more and more lol

My feet and hands got more hairy, so it is working on my body, but my NW2.5 temples are barren as ever.

I'm also taking 0.5mg Avodart every other day.

This is extremely distressing. What is the point? I'm killing my heart and can't even f***ing regrow temple areas, really?

It's not a baby dose either. FML
The vellus hairs on my right temple is longer and abit darker so ye it is working but you need to use higher dosage and twice daily. I used 20mg Day. May go back to that dosage.
