Was wondering if anyone heard of any new treatments coming out. I heard that there may be a new japanese treatment coming out. Forgot what company is doing it though.

Hi Sumerian,

I believe you're talking about Adenogen from Shiseido. That's the latest on the news front. Not much news since then.

Cheers,
Sam

Where did you read that it is only for men? It might be that it's only being marketed to men, but I think if it works for men, it works for women. Maybe DHT blockers don't work as well for women since we have much lower levels of DHT already, but growth stimulants should work. Like rogaine, it was introduced and sold to men for 10 yrs before they said it worked for women too.

Lees Pharm (chinese company) is supposedly working on Tb4 for launch in Hong Kong. That might actually be promising. Another company, Lions Corp (i believe it's japanese) is researching another potential hair product, but that's still very much in R&D phase.
