Hair Loss & Replacement Blog

For almost a year I’ve been struggling with Alopecia Areata and S.D.
For six months I managed to slow the hair loss, then I got tired of doing
that because I didn’t want to keep constantly shampooing my scalp
with Ketaconazole for the rest of my life. A few days ago I was searching more on possibly stoping Alopecia and I found out that Biotin, Provillus, Saw Palmetto, and a few others Vitamins that successfully stopped
Alopecia. The first three seemed to stand out more than the rest the more and more I searched and that excited me.

So I was wondering if anyone here is suffering or suffered from it and tried any of those three, combined them with other things had any success and got their hair back or is currently using it for a a few months and have seen alot of new hair regrowth and it hasn’t fallen out PLEASE share because i’d really like to win this battle……and not be afraid of my favorite combs and brushes anymore.

I take biotin, vit A, niacin, saw palmetto, iron, evening primrose, salmon oil, GNC hair skin and nails formula, use nioxin shampoo and scalp treatment, coconut and olive oil scalp massage and started horemone replacement 1 1/2 weeks ago. Leotyroxine. still tons of hair loss

I have recently just bought Propecia. I was not aware that it would not be safe to continue having sex with my partner while on this drug for the risk of possibly getting pregnant and that child having birth defects.

Within Procerin and Provillus, there is a main ingredient called "Saw Palmetto". My question has to do with either of these products and/or that specific ingredient. Will I run into the same problem regarding birth defects with these products or any product containing Saw Palmetto?? If I take Propecia or any of these supplements, how quickly will the drug be out of my system so that I could procreate without the worry of causing birth defects? All help is greatly appreciated!

I was using a high dose Saw Palmetto tablet from EarthRise foods ,not sure if really making any difference in my thinning crown area .Anyone have comments or experience of this herb for hair loss treatment in men or proof that it it helps .Its supposed to stop a process that promotes hair loss due to hormones .Makes sense but I cant see much results after 8 months usage

Saw Palmetto is traditionally used as a topical treatment to help improve skin and scalp conditions and combat hair loss by reviving the follicles.
I am trying to find saw palmetto oil in UK which can be used as topical treatment to try it for hair loss.

Also does Saw Palmetto have the same side effects as Finasteride
