Which product would be LEAST likely to cause hair loss? Or which would have the greatest hair loss > strength/mass gain ratio?
And which one is least androgenic?
And which one is least androgenic?
Thanks for the straight replies, guys and gals.
FitNFirm, you're all over the web, very nice! I may go with JW, it seems to give really good strength which is what I'm after. It's just pricey, and I hate to buy it if I'm gonna have issues with it.
I got an ugly head, gotta keep that hair.
Mentioned above: Increased free test=increased DHT, which could lead to hair loss.
True?
If so, does anything block or counter DHT?
For the most part that is correct...but for 4-8 weeks isn't going to prove harmful. I'm subceptible to MPB and haven't had any problems with such products.Mentioned above: Increased free test=increased DHT, which could lead to hair loss.

OK, JW it is, sold by the lady on the left! :lol:
It seems ActivaTe does more for size, JW for strength. I'll take the strength.
google "nettle root dht" if you know anything about DHTs relationship to hairloss you'll find your answer, and even more.Which product would be LEAST likely to cause hair loss? Or which would have the greatest hair loss > strength/mass gain ratio?

I'm not saying that you won't shed though...this is merely what DS has to say about it."Q. The write-up states that ActivaTe™ blocks DHT. In theory, is it possible that the increase in free testosterone can also indirectly increase DHT?
If we're talking theory, then yes, there may be an increase in DHT. Given DHT’s high affinity for SHBG, we do not feel this effect to be of huge concern, nor has the feedback indicated so.
Q. So I won’t lose my hair using ActivaTe™?
Reports of this were few and far between. There was one case of paranoia and another case where a gentleman was sure there was increased shedding. The abundance of feedback showing no effect on hair loss verses the few reports that do indicate to us that this is not a typical side effect, so should be of small concern, unless prone to male pattern baldness maybe."
I've seen that, but that, I imagine, only counts for a lesser extract, not one formulated to specifically raise levels of active test. Regular nettle probaby blocks DHT, whereas ActivaTe might not as it's standardized for a specific purpose.google "nettle root dht" if you know anything about DHTs relationship to hairloss you'll find your answer, and even more.
the original site I found that got me looking at nettle root and dht was obviously a website that sells bulk products. The nettle root there is supposed to be standardized to 95% (Activate is standardized from 60-95%), although the guys over at DS say 95% isnt accurate (for the bulk supplier).I've seen that, but that, I imagine, only counts for a lesser extract, not one formulated to specifically raise levels of active test.

I could be wrong.
fitnfirm, any feedback/logs on Restore? Looks interesting.
Oh, shaving's great, unless you have an ugly head.

If ActivaTe did that, JW would do it EVEN moreso, as it contains an AI and is purported to be more potent.supposedly the potential is there with activate,since an increase in free test could also lead to an increase in dht.i ran it alone for 4 weeks,and didnt notice any shedding but im also not prone to MPB.
