Why do we never hear from tested persons?

On this article, you hear about 3 balding men who completely recovered by this "wonderpill"

I mean come on, if it's clearly working for them.. why haven't we seen pictures or anything?

And do you think once the baldness cure is found, that society will banish baldness, due to the identity hair gives?

By the way the drug is called ruxolitinib.

You didn't read the article correctly. On the other hand, the article wasn't written in a very precise (or well-informed) manner on purpose.

The article speaks about a drug that is used for AA, not for Androgenetic Alopecia/male pattern baldness. It distinguishes between "alopecia" and "pattern baldness", which is as incorrect as it gets. Either way, nothing that would affect male pattern baldness sufferers.

And why you never hear from people in clinicla trials in general? NDAs, trial location (India, Philippines), their very low number...

Why do we never hear from tested persons?

Because there's barely any trials being done on a cure or even treatment for hair loss.

I'm coming up to the 12 month mark on a trial now and the doctor am I are pretty happy with the results.

Can you give us any details on this trial? Topical or pill? What kind of results, i.e. regrowth (if so, how much would you say you subjectively had) or maintainance? Location of the study? Side effects?

What trial are you a part of? Histogen? Follica? Something else?

Replicel isn't in trials right now (or maybe they finally are but would only have just started).

Also; please dont troll the forum with bogus snake oil trials.
