Hello! i made my 2nd order recently and soon it will arrive. so my new question is:
Folligen/Hair Signals-which is better in case of male hair loss?
i read that Hair signals could be more effective...it contains more helpful ingredients, is it true?
is it better to stick with Minoxidil+Hair signals? or should i add Folligen in regime?
if yes what scheme/plan of use it could be?
nowdays i use Hair signals/Folligen on morning and Minoxidil at evening+ Cu+ZN+vit C per os+MSM+Flax seed/Borage oil.
should i change my scheme?

Again dude, you really should reconsider the use of Finasteride or Dutasteride.

Even with Folligen, minoxidil and other vitamins, you absolutely have to adress the DHT/5AR angle...

Finasteride is used since a lot of years...taking it at 0.5mg/day until the next cure is not a big deal...it wont give you cancer

By the way, Dutasterid is more powerfull since it adresse the two types of 5AR ( 5AR1 and 5AR2) but strangly...it really gives less/no sides effects....I will finish my finasteride box and will switch to dutasteride.

If you are really affraid why not using Cortexolone 17alpha propionate (CB 03 01) ? It has a very good safety profil and won't drop your dht levels...it will only silent your AR Receptors in your scalp.

By the way you really should use a dermaroller or dermastamp at 1.5mm once a week then adding a little of Licl, it's for boosting your growth factor and addressing the WNT Pathway, it's very important to stimulate regrowth.

Then, you can add 0.005% of tretinoin in your minox, it's really needed if you use it once a day. Please look at these studies :

Dear Ilia:

Since each individual is different you can always test both products and see which works best for you.

Typically for men, we recommend Hair Signals Therapy. If you are already using Hair Signals, there would be no need to add Folligen to your regimen (only one copper peptide needs to be used at a time).

Your use of Hair Signals (or Folligen) in the morning and Minoxidil at night is fine.

Or try alternating: Use Hair Signals one day / Minoxidil the next day.

There is not one single way to use our products for improved hair/scalp health. There is a variety of ways to use Folligen or Hair Signals.

The main thing to keep in mind with our products is the following:

1. They work well in conjunction with all other hair products (Minoxidil, etc).

2. Only use one copper peptide at a time - No need to use multiple products. Select one and test it out for at least 4-6 months.

2. Less is more (apply either Folligen OR Hair Signals very lightly). Use it every other day. Avoid heavy applications. Take periodic breaks (perhaps the last week of the month off and rest from use).
