Anavar and hair loss

[gotheemz]

I'm planning on running anavar soon.

My hairline is hanging on by a thread, but its still workable. I've always wanted to do anavar because of the hype and i finally got suckered into it. Previously i had been avoiding DHT derivatives like the plague out of fear of hair loss. I've heard from several people that anavar has a very low side effect profile. However, Its a DHT drug so i have my doubts.

I am wondering what your guys experience with anavar and hair loss is? Particularly guys who are susceptible to it.

Are you on a hair retention protocol? Micro needling and minoxidil, finasteride, ketoconzale’s?

Yes to all but micro needling. On that note is that something i should adopt. I've seen MPMD's material on it. Just didnt seem worth it. What is your experience?

I wish I could help more. I haven’t started noticing any substantial losses yet but I just got in trt this year. I know it’s coming and have been doing research for the day. It sounds like your doing all the right stuff, maybe try the micro needle? Sounds like it can suck tho.

get on a protocol and you can run whatever you want. you don't even need micro-needling. trust me

edit: I misread your post. i didn't know u are already on a protocol and ur hairline barely hanging on. i think the key is to get on a protocol very early into using aa's because then you will experience no loss or it will at least be significantly slowed. that is my experience at least. also, that topical research chemical RU is very effective in my experience you should add that to your protocol if its not too late too.

Ketokonazca 2%.you can’t buy it the us only at 1% concentration. Go fo on Amazon Canadian. I prefer it form the 1% isn’t enough. Minoxidil but should be apply 2x daily. You should be pretty good with those.

RU is a God send

A couple years ago I went to one of the most respected hair transplant centers in the country and had a consultation with one of the doctors who gets paid to lecture other transplant surgeons and writes medical textbooks on the stuff. He said I'd need to thicken up my hair before I'd be a good candidate for a transplant. He wanted me to take oral minoxadil and oral finasteride for a year and then come back.

There was no other tips or tricks, and believe me if they worked drastically he'd know about it. He recommended oral minoxidil mainly because the generic pills are cheap, about $10 for a month supply. And in pill form it's easier to be consistent. And of course the finasteride for obvious reasons. And as with all things regarding hair loss or gains it takes about a year to see results. I think switching your shampoo to Nizoral is worth a shot too. There's some evidence for that red laser therapy and he'd sell me one of those devices if I wanted one but he wasn't pushing that.

As for anavar I'm not sure where you felt it was hyped. Most people think it is the weakest AAS except for proviron. The advantage is it's least virulizing for women and least liver taxing of the orals. Apparently the only hair safe AAS is nandrolone.

Gah, this "DHT derivative" bro-science shit is so incorrect. Var is one of the safest compounds for hair loss. Var is not derived from DHT, it is a 5α-androstan-3-one (already 5α-reduced, so it won't be converted to DHT in scalp [a good thing]) and neither it nor its metabolites are potently androgenic in scalp.

 

[Rido]

All this big word bullshit. just inject and lift your weights motherfuckers! only pussies care about being bald

@Ironman580 where are you? I cant keep doing this


Everytime @Type-IIx posts I think of Ironman

 

[All Nats McGee]

Thank god I’ll probably never lose my hair till wayyy later. But if I was predisposed I would definitely pick to work out natty.

God it would suck to be one of those short juice heads that look twice their age with red faces and bald heads haha

 

[gotheemz]

Ill take being predisposed to MPB (all men are btw), over being a dyel twink

Just because the compound isn't a dht derivative doesn't mean it's not going to cause hairloss.

I've spent the last 7-8 trying to mitigate hairloss. Speaking from my experience, if you rely on the "big 3" while on most PEDs, you're going to be very disappointed.
Until I started using RU I was unsatisfied with the state of my hair while using the big 3 protocol. Granted my hairloss could of been considerably worse without it.
Right now I'm using deca, so I pulled the finasteride but I would highly recommend anyone wanting some help with your hair to incorporate microneedling and RU

Now, I didn't say that, did I? Read what I said again.

How in the fuck did you read my post and conclude that I'm saying only "DHT derivatives" cause hair loss?

I will never stop mentioning to people that their (even firmly held) bro-science factoids that commercially available non-5a-reducible androgens are not "DHT derivatives."

Well now that I re read what you said knowing the context, I understand I misread it. Maybe my reading comprehension has declined haha, but how I originally interrupted your statement was that anavar isn't a dht derivative, making it hair safe.
My bad

Interestingly I get no hair loss from masteron or primo, but a decent amount of shedding from anavar. At equal dosages too. At least with anavar you can drop it if you notice shedding and it will be out of your system quick.

Microneedling helps, especially if you use RU. If you aren't using RU, you definitely should be.

I'm a huge fan of the ol' var, but don't generally run doses above 30mg per day because I don't like the bloody noses it gives me. At that dose, I don't notice any hairloss, and I've been diligently keeping track of every follicle for the past few years, lol.

The problem with DHT derivatives is that individual response on the hairline varies massively. You're probably just going to have to try it and see.

Yep. RU is an absolute game changer.

What's your protocol for applying the RU?
Just got some this week.

Thanks

Everything I’ve read, even William Levelyn (sp?) said it wasn’t hair friendly… I’m really interested in this, never known it was safe
