I hope the readers of this forum are not jilted in their thinking by those who use semantics or studies out of context to throw you. Bryan and the new mysterious "To You" poster want you to believe that androgen manipulation has little to do with MPB.

Until genetic treatments or hair cloning arrive (many years away, sorry), NOTHING will effectively allow new growth that doesn't first curb androgens' role in shrinking follicles. The effects of hair enhancers like minoxadil that merely inlarge already existing shunken follicles (and don't address the androgen effect) will continue to vary from patient to patient. But so long as the androgens are able to continue to march forward, the hairlines will continue to recede (again, I am a physician who has used minixadil of all variations extensively on patients for years, so it's not a matter of going to the library for me).

My question to Bryan and his supporters like "To You": What is your plan for first stopping the androgen effect (recognized by authorities for decades) that will allow other enhancers to work? Do you have something better than what Merck has delivered (finasteride) or Glaxo will offer soon (Dut)? Do you really feel you know of something out there that is so powerful that the androgen effect doesn't matter? Don't you realize that your lack of common sense might cause others reading this forum to spend money of bogus treatments?
