you probably shouldn't use too much then

Do you think I could get my hairline back?

Right now I'm using the same amount of Prog that Androforte uses for women (I'm a man, and I don't have
boobs, or anything else, just using it for hair regrowth).

Do they sell it in the U.S.?

I think you would need E for that. I dont know alot about progesterone other than it inhibits 5ar and that cypro is a progestin.

Hey Bridge, you seemed to have good results with Oestrogel, why change to oral? Oral is surely more risky no? I’ve been using the gel for the past 3 weeks now applied morning and evening with Alpicort F haven’t seen any changes yet but it’s early days I suppose.

Im still using estrogel but combined with oral pill, actually im taking the pill buccally as its said is better than sublingual. swallowing the pill is more risky but sub and buc methods bypass the liver and go directly into the bloodstream. I feel its safer for my hair to use 2 different delivery methods, maybe each method has advantages and I can get both. also im worried if i use the gel all the time if someday the skin will resist it. how much are you using?

Interesting, I've not heard of people administering estro in such a way. I'm applying ~1.5g of Oestrogel on the temples and 2ml of Alpicort F all over per day. Limited sides thus far.

thats what I did in the beginning. try not to waste the gel on the hairs, it needs to reach the skin to absorb

biopsy, trichogram, pull test,...? what they did use?
Nothing like that. They just looked at it and inferred it’s male pattern baldness.
One guy used usb microscope. Anyone can do that.
I myself got the Blood test done and any possibility of nutritional deficiency.
Also thyroid is normal. Got that checked as well.

Of all the docs, one gave me unique advice that since my scalp already produces enough sebumI should not apply oil.
I had mild folliculitis (grainy particles on scalp)and it should go away with time upon normal sebum level is achieved.

Hey Jose, all the meds are self prescribed.
No Doctor here will prescribe anything beyond finasteride.

I didn’t find any of em that knowledgeable though.
f*** doctors like that. they expect us to only take FDA approved treatments like a good boy and never consider anything else.

Brother,
Can I harmlessly pop finasteride, dutasteride, spironolactone, loniten and estradiol in one go?

Look guys, hair regrowth on HRT in 30 y. o. mtf that was balding since 15.
Regimen: 200 mg spironolactone, 6 mg E2, 1.25 mg finasteride and topical minoxidil. No dermarolling.
These vellus hairs on the forehead look very promising...

Omg dhtpolice. I would kiss that girl in your profile pic if what you posted is valid for everyone. More background needed. How long did hrt take to work, started when. Initial dosage. Sides.

If we are gonna start posting before and afters of those who have treated Androgenetic Alopecia with oestrogen, I saw this one whilst browsing the net earlier today that I thought was pretty note worthy, pic below. The guy here was on 100mg spironolactone, 2mg E2, 1.25mg finasteride, and min, not as dramatic as the trans @DHTpolice posted but significant frontal-temporal regrowth nonetheless.
