Fookin_alo Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 Hey guys. I'm new to this forum. It's great that people on here can support each other through the issues of baldness, cause it's certainly not easy to talk about to anybody that hasn't experienced it. Anyway, to the point. I'm 22, and My hairloss is only in the form of a receding hairline at the moment. I've been on Propecia for three months now. I've noticed a few less hairs falling out in the shower etc, and i'm hoping to see continued improvement. My question to you all is this: Is there some sort of all-in-one hair loss supplement containing all the minerals and vitamins one needs to grow/maintain healthy hair, that DOESN'T contain Saw Palmetto? I just want to stick to Propecia for now, as it's the surest option, however, I really want to make sure my hair and scalp are getting the nutrients they need to improve the health of the hair I may retain. I would order online if I had to, but if a product like this is available in Australia, that would be a big plus. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill - Seemiller Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 Fookin_alo, Welcome to our community. In my opinion, if Propecia is working for you, unless you are experiencing side effects and with the advice of a physician, you should probably should probably stick with it. In all my research, I have not found any real solid evidence that any herbal hair loss remedies are as effective. Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member LeesHair Posted April 8, 2009 Regular Member Share Posted April 8, 2009 Nothing wrong with trying something else AS WELL AS the prescription though is there MrJobi? Providing it isn't something that intereferes of course. Just really, really, don't rely on it working without a prescription. Can I ask why you want something without Saw Palmetto though?

Senior Member xxy Posted April 24, 2009 Senior Member Share Posted April 24, 2009 I'm guessing mild sides from the Finasteride, so he doesn't want to push it further with any more Saw Palmetto? Anyway, Fookin_Alo, I think a decent multivitamin or something for overall hair health would be your best bet. Seems like the Propecia is doing well for your hair regrowth/stopping loss.

Greg Pods Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 Well, these days there are some effective treatment methods when it comes to hair loss...but I'm yet to study or use an "all-in-one" pill, cream, or other form of medication that delivers what is promised. There may be some that provide very limited results...but nothing near what most people expect when they take a "hair restoration" supplement. That being said, Saw Palmetto has shown in double blind, placebo controlled studies that it can be effective in reducing hair loss and regrowing hair. I've used this in combination with Avodart for some great results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
