Testimonials on hair supplements

Post by Jacob »

These are some with a lot of positives. Maybe those who aren't seeing much improvement just don't post theirs..maybe these ppl have never tried anything before..etc. A future update from all would be nice...

If you're referring to that last product...
i am 31 year old male. i have had hair loss since 21. have used scalpmed, propecia, rogaine and other topical items. the only way my hair started coming back was with taking oral herbs in this. my crown is starting to get dark and likewise the top of my head. been using for three months. at this rate my head will be covered with hair at the end of 2010. looking forward to it. you know... it is interesting that you actually see results. try it at the three pills a day for three month dosage, no less for good results.
After about 30 days of using of this product without telling my wife she noticed my eyebrows were growing thicker and longer ! My hair growth did not change until I decided to increase my dosage to six tabs twice a day(not recommended) and that's when I started to see a significant change in hair growth.
I think one of the problems with this type of therapy is you do not know what dosage works for you. Since you are self medicating you can not determine proper dosage to combat the effect of DHT levels .
I had a blood test performed from a local doctor that determined if the DHT levels in the blood had decreased . I decided to try six pills to help decrease DHT levels in the blood even though doctor could not guarantee the product would work .I did start to see a big difference in hair growth . I am now using seven tabs a day with lots of hair growth and most likely decrease dosage once hair growth is complete and looking to just maintain . Hope this helps you out with your decision . Remember the three tabs per day on the product label is just a recommendation nothing more !
Those were w/in the first 3 pages...haven't bothered reading them ALL :lol:

I looked and they have a drop-down menu where you can change it from UPS to US Postal Service..and it's much cheaper. I put 6 bottles in the cart. Shipping- UPS is $93.56. USPS is $34.99.

Still not cheap..but it is a big difference.

Have you looked into getting something similar..get ingreds separately that aren't in another product..etc? You don't know how much of each ingred is in this product though..and then there's the convenience factor. :-s

These review sound too good to be true since I have never heard of such positive results from supplement usage.

I think it's possible to see those kinds of results. Many of the testimonials are from women, and who knows about the guys- may not have actual MPB or agressive MPB.

So no..I wouldn't depend upon internals to get your hair back :lol:

There's this one by Solaray geared specifically towards men. I took it for 6 months or so a few years back. Didn't notice much benefit, personally...but, YMMV. Solid ingredients list, anyway.
