Hair Loss

[Ghoul]

Don't you need a prescription for that?

Only in the US. You can get a telemedicine script for $20 and 3x4oz bottles for $25, which is enough for about 6 months of twice a week use. Or India pharma has it as well. LMK if you need specifics.

After the five minutes I just rinse it and follow up with my regular shampoo/conditioner. All the Keto shampoos I've used are very drying and don't smell great.

My main problem with them is the smell, not just my hair, but also while I’m actually showering. In that sense I’m a delicate princess.

The one I was using was Revita, but as I said, they stopped making it. Probably, I’ll just go without and see what happens.

Keto falls into the same category as microneedling, laser caps, scalp massage, stem cell injections. That is, they are all effective in a small way, but represent the last 5% you can do while Fin/Dut and Minox cover the first 95%.

The only exception is if you have hyperseborrhea, like I unknowingly did. That is, hyperactive sebum glands. If you MUST wash your hair daily or it becomes an oily mess, Keto shampoo can make a sizable difference in preventing hair loss by very efficiently clearing the DHT rich sebum from your scalp and pores.

That is my understanding as well, thus my willingness to let it go. My hair loss isn’t that bad. Hair line isn’t perfect but seems not to have moved much in the last decade.

Also using RU58841, but I’m not sure how much benefit it yields. I’ve not seen much regrowth.

If you look good bald, I envy you. Some guys do, I'll admit, but not most of us.

I was definately one of the "let it go" types after my finasteride nightmare, but in hindsight I regret losing so much ground and ended up overcoming my fear. lowering the dose, and returning to it. Far later than I should've though.

I found mine on eBay shipped from Canada to USA. There are also quite a few sellers shipping from India.

Anyone know of a good ketoconazole shampoo that isn't terrible? The one I liked pulled out the ketoconazole and added in a bunch of "natural" ingredients.

Revita Shampoo. I use both nizoral and revita. Doesn't dry out as much if I'm going out. It's 1% but smells great so I use it on days i don't use nizoral 2%

 

[HU_Master777]

Does your friend have male pattern baldness to begin with? These anecdotes need to come from people who were losing hair with steroids in the first place and now with test-deca and finasteride don't.

yes, he's nw 2.5

Going to try making my own RU-58841 5% solution for the first time here soon as a way to potentially save some bucks. I have consumed enough content on the subject that I am feeling pretty confident I can pull it off.

I'll make a short video on this as well if there is any interest. Already have the Ethanol, PG, glassware, scale, etc. on hand, and the RU powder is inbound from Chemyo.

I used fungoral, it smells ok.

Nice, but why do all that stuff when you can simply add the powder to a topical minoxidil bottle like rogaine which already has the solvents and stuff? That's how i did it, 3gr RU powder in 60ml 5% minoxidil, you apply 1ml morning 1ml evening and you're g2g

Thanks for the suggestion as this is not something I had considered

Revita Shampoo

Yeah, they reformulated:





I don't want any of those things. I just want a basic shampoo that includes ketoconazole.

Oh, I don't. I've shaved my head in the past and look like a serial killer. Not exactly the type of image that I'm trying to project. Thing that that I'm willing to let go is the ketoconazole shampoo as, as you stated, it's the last 5%.

I used fungoral, it smells ok.

I'll try this, thanks.

Just to level set what "smells ok". What are your feelings about Axe body spray?

Well, i could better say it doesn't smell like trash. Don't expect to smell like anything commercial, it's still a pharmaceutical product for dandruff.

Without overanalyzing it you can use the keto shampoo, let it sit for 3-5 minutes, wash, then apply any shampoo you prefer and wash again. Keto isn't meant for hair, if there was a way to apply it directly in the scalp that would be great. You have to gently massage your scalp with this, there's no need to make foam on your hair and definitely no reason to do the back and side of your head. After this you can still use a regular shampoo, just make sure it's something with neutral PH.

where do u get the RU powder from? thx

 

[connoristiny]

yes, I do. Have to do very low dosage because of this unfortunately. But the dutasteride works great regardless, so I don't need much minox..

are u referring to a very low dose of nandrolone?

 

[BuildABro]

Chemyo and Anageninc would be options I would suggest to explore. Anageninc has a 10 gram option as well which cuts down further on costs.

Me personally, and maybe this is just because I use gear, but I did not see any significant improvement in terms of regrowth until I added RU to the mix month 2. I think for now I am basically just treading water or maybe regrowing further on a very marginal basis, but I will take it compared to where I was previously.

 

[JACNZPP]

Exactly the kind of articles/posts why I love this forum.

I have a issue with hair loss so will take a deep dive into this protocol!

Thanks bro!

I was trying to be funny, but thanks for your response.

QSC has it. There are other domestic sources as well.

Wait, QSC has RU? How the hell did I not realize this before now.

Wow 50 grams for 250 bucks too. That is a hell of a value proposition. I will scoop some up with my next order, but ill start with the 10 G.
