    ZINC FINGER THEORY DISCUSSION for PFS - 2 cases

    I'm confused as to why you are trying to address hair loss as well. Do you think it's actually possible? My understanding was that androgenic alopecia was genetic and androgen mediated and therefore unavoidable so long as you have DHT in your system. Are you trying to block it through some...

    Any Post-Accutane sufferers experimenting with protocols?

    Accutane worked on my skin. It reduced the oiliness massively so now it's dry and I hardly have any acne. My strongest symptoms are sexual sides (ED, no sensation, libido or orgasm) and maybe mood/energy but harder to tell. I figured I would give cysteine/histidine a go to see if it increases...

    Any Post-Accutane sufferers experimenting with protocols?

    I'm going to give it a go. I've ordered some L-Cysteine HCl and L-Histidine HCl from the states (I'm in Aus) so just waiting for it to arrive. I've been trialling a high dose magnesium supplement in light of GBols theory of high cortisol depleting magnesium and I've noticed increased energy...

    Dopamine insensitivity - Sexual dysfunction - Dopamine antagonists

    Said this in the other thread but I'll put it here as well - I tried cabergoline (dopamine agonist) but it just wiped out refractory period. Didn't do anything else for me. Also, dopamine sensitivity isn't just about the receptors becoming more/less sensitised by their agonism/antagonism...

    Accutane and Sexual Dysfunction

    Another thing, have any of you had any hair loss or thinning as a symptom? I've had diffuse hair loss on my head and body, but it hasn't affected the areas with thicker hair (facial and pubic). I've lost 70-80% of the hair on the back of my calves and 50% elsewhere. Head has come back now to...

    Accutane and Sexual Dysfunction

    Yeah man I had the exact same idea of using GH until I saw that study. Glad I found it because it would have been expensive as shit. Are there any 5HT1A agonists? Or do you just mean an SSRI to get serotinin up? I'd probably be more reluctant to take an SSRI than I would be to take to take...

    Accutane and Sexual Dysfunction

    Completely agree. For 2 periods of 3-4 days I myself experienced completely normal libido and function (sensitivity, erection, orgasm) before all symptoms came back. The first was 3-4 months after I stopped and the next was 6-9 months later. I went from no libido to watching porn 3-5 times a...

    Accutane and Sexual Dysfunction

    TRT is testosterone 100mg/week prescribed by a doc. When I say complete remission I don't mean permanent, I mean for a 3-4 day period for no apparent reason before symptoms returning and I have read of this a few times. This was over a year ago so I would have to do a lot of digging to find...

    Accutane and Sexual Dysfunction

    Hey first post here. I've been following along everything here and I'm keen to get involved with some of the trials. I've ordered some histidine-HCl and cysteine-HCl. I'm post-accutane. Sides I've got are: severe sexual dysfunction (ED, no sensitivity, no libido, no orgasm), mild-moderate hair...
