Hair Loss Forums

March 31, 2014 -- New hair loss treatments on the not-too-distant horizon may be game-changers. “The development of new treatments, including drugs and cell-based approaches for hair loss, is at an all-time high,” says Kenneth J. Washenik, MD, PhD. He's a clinical assistant professor at NYU Langone...

Hi there, and welcome.

In my view, get yourself the laser product you can get and use it at home. I personally use one of OverMacheGrande's hand made helmets with 300 diodes. For me, it has worked well to maintain.

Hi megan999,

If you would like, send me a private message with your old id and I will try to help you reset it.

Thx

Bobman that's a pretty amazing HT. You must feel great! I'm glad I got mine done as well.

Wow, thanks for sharing! Looks good so far. Looking forward to your results.

yanyan911,

Thanks for sharing this information. How are you doing now that you've had a few months to try the product?

Thanks,
HLF

Have used many. Currently, only laser. I also drink a ton of green tea, and personally think it helps me maintain.

why do you need to do that?

Hi all, Okay, after a tremendous amount hemming and hawing, I finally decided to move the site from the existing server it was hosted on, to a new server, so I can start upgrading the site. It's a long story, but suffice it to say that the old server had many, many problems. After a huge amount of h...

Hi Natasha26,

Thanks for this feedback. Glad to hear you have found something that is working for you. Read your post, and now I want to try it.

Cheers,
HLF

Hi Natasha26 Thanks for the comment on the forum. I have to admit that for several years now, Jacob has been the hero here. My life has been consumed with things non-hair-loss-related. Jacob, apologies for the site going down. I have no idea why it keeps happening. And when it happens, sometimes it ...

Hi Janet, While doctor Bernstein is definitely one of the more respectable hair restorations surgeons out there, I understand your apprehension with going with an associate who doesn't exclusively specialize in hair restoration. While you may get a great result if you went with this person, I would ...

Saw this years ago. It's unfortunate that because of the nature of our condition, and the fact that nothing really works very well (even though some things DO work) it is easy to con people... Thanks for sharing this.

How are you liking the shampoo doke? Any new observations?

Keep us posted as to your results. Wish I could help with the question. I think if you have a protein or amino acid deficiency then definitely amino acid supplementation can help though.

Hi there, Thanks for sharing your experience and situation. Stress and emotional duress can definitely cause hair loss in the form of telogen effluvium. It's also possible that stress can cause an existing underlying condition such as male pattern or female pattern hair loss, or even alopecia areata...

Saw this the other day as well. This has long been suspected, and indicative of the fact that people really need to be cautious when using internal DHT-inhibitors or anti-androgens. Thanks for the post.

I am not aware of any such link. However, a lot of body hair is thought to be indicative of high levels of androgens (testosterone or dihydrotestestorone (DHT)). High levels of androgens are associated with androgenetic alopecia in those that are susceptible.

He's taking a well-deserved break.

Jacob, you are missed!!!

Man, lots of spam trolls these days .... Will keep a close eye.

Thanks to those of you who reported the spammers when you came across them.

Both deleted.... Spam is taking over the world... (sigh)

Hey Jacob,

Thanks and I look forward to when you're back now! I still have the e-mails. Will take a looksie again.

Justin, thanks for the kind words. I appreciate that you find it useful here!

Cheers,
Sam

Hi all, It has been a long time since I have had even the slightest time to be able to spend here. The sad thing for me is that for years, this place (under a different name at the time, Morphollica.com) was a passion of mine, but life's demands forced me to change focus over time, and the site hasn...

Why don't you want it anymore?

Sorry for the late reply.

I'm using a laser messiah and 1.25mg fin per day. Seems to be holding the fort.

I would suggest that if you're going to get a hair transplant, you should go with the best of the best. In my view, you should be willing to travel for it, if at all possible. I recommend Hasson and Wong. I had mine with Dr. Wong, and he has done a fine job. I will likely go back for more density, b...

Hi there,

Which threads are you concerned about?

Thanks,
Sam

Hi Delores, Thanks for sharing your experience. I'm curious what products you tried. I know you said 'all' but it would be helpful to readers to know what ones you specifically tried. Also if you would be willing to share pictures showing your success with dealing with your hair loss that would be g...

Seems pretty spammy. Let's see if he posts anything else.

That's what this site is for.

The majority of the hair loss sites tend to frown upon the use of their forums to promote another forum, or to redirect people to another forum. I tend not to make a big deal if someone posts the occasional link to a legit forum thread in a discussion here, especially if that person is a regular pos...

I don't know. I'm assuming he is focused on his own site. It's been a while since I have been here so I wasn't aware of how long he hadn't been here. Anyway, in the grand scheme of things people will do what they feel is best for them. Maybe he has decided not to post here anymore. If that's the cas...

Hi there,

I haven't talked to him in a while mostly because I have been so busy with my own life, but that's true. We have a great relationship, and I'm sure he'll still participate here as he has expressed to me in the past that he likes the open exchange of info that we allow here.

Sam

This is pretty slick. Good job.

I know for a fact that stress causes hair loss for me. At least temporary loss, but usually when this happens not all of it grows back so... IMHO definitely it is worth it to take actions to minimise your stress response overall. Easier said that done sadly.

I'm alive. Just dealing with a lot of things these days. I'm doing some things behind the scenes. Going to be back in the forums as much as I can...

Hey cuebreeze, Honestly, I think your chances are WAY better to focus on treating your hair loss. I read the link you posted on this, and while there does appear to be a correlation between the bone plates in the skull and areas of MPB in the scalp this correlation does not imply cause. It's not cal...

I was trying to increase HGH naturally, or at least boost my body's own production of it via several supplements. I think I had success in this because I was doing it primarily to shed fat and gain muscle (with a workout routine). I still take some supplements for this reason, and I think this has h...

Hey OMG, I use a boar bristle brush primarily because it is the best brush for STYLING my hair. Mine is the round brush, which I find is even better for controlling the hair style. One point I have though: I think brushing too much is not so good. This is because you are potentially causing traction...

I think it totally depends on how you broach the subject. When I first realized I was losing hair it was pretty traumatic for me because an asshole that I was going to school with in my first year of university pointed it out to me in front of a group of my friends (including some girls, one of whic...

Hi Pete2, I have tried a lot of things over the years. For a while I was using a lot of topicals, to the point where I felt it was making the condition of my scalp worse. I generally try to stay away from topicals for this reason. Bombarie, I stopped Dut. for about a month, and now I'm using it agai...

0416Dr, I just posted in here about the tone of the forums. Whatever your views are on any topic here, your tone is way off. I just asked people to keep things civil. This is not to defend anyone, it's to keep the forums a positive place to post. You can express the same views without the tone. I me...

For the record, discussions about AGHC and Dr. AQ's subsequent participation in here started without my involvement whatsoever. I have not received any money from Dr. AQ, nor do I expect to. I have received and used a free trial version of the product, and I have reported myobservations from using i...

You have proven to be a shady and untrustworthy character and that's one of the reasons people haven't bought or stopped buying HC. Good job on convincing a lot of people about your product with falsehoods and absolutely no facts to base them on. I don't think this is a fair statement. Especially t...

Hi there and welcome to the forums. Thanks for sharing your experiences/thoughts on Propecia. I wanted to add that I personally have not read anywhere that Propecia acts by causing your testicles to produce less DHT. I have read that the way it works is by blocking the formation of DHT from circulat...

I bookmarked an article in the Vancouver Sun on the Sox21 gene here....

Hi cld517,

This is the way the software behaves. The same has happened to me as well. You have to make sure you submit it again on the page that pops up. I think it is letting you preview it before you submit. Let me know if this is not your problem and we can investigate this further.
