    FINASTERIDE: PFS MECHANISM (detailed)

    Here is a theory. Finasteride is a progestin like progesterone. IT raises potassium in the cell. By doing this it increases metabolism of people who take it. Sugar metabolism is closed in hairloss people and taking finasteride bypasses the regulation, same as taking progesterone , and...

    MPB HAIRLOSS/ Shedding is due to the low ratio of lysyl oxidase created Elastin to Elastase which brakes it down.

    Elastase is upregulated in infections to breaks down elastin to kill the bug Lysyl oxidase works on copper vitamin C and GHK . But it can be inhibited by high levels of aldehydes. since lysyl oxidase makes aldehyde So to create more elastin, You need stomach acid plus you need to...

    PINE POLLEN + VITEX (PFS)

    This combo could help some people who dont have the ability to get balanced, or who want immediate results. Pine pollen has hormones in it , but it tanks potassium. Tanking potassium makes your estrogen not work so DHT does not work either. To support potassium while taking...

    INSULIN, Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase and PFS

    I suspect that people with hairloss have overactive G6PD this produces a lot of NAPDH and thus causes higher testosterone to DHT conversion and Nitric oxide and lower cortisol. IN blood of people with increased G6PD they find higher copper and iron and lower zinc and manganese...

    PSSD Discussions

    I think PSSD is connected to deficiencies in magnesium and manganese and possible copper. As I saw on the blood tests, people with PSSD have high aldosterone, and high progesterone. We could try to lower aldo with magnesium and kill 3 beta hsd with manganese. Both of these...

    What to test, for zinc finger

    It would be best for people to test this with the actual blood tests. And then we will know for sure know . This is the exact mechanism. And people will be fixed within 2-3 weeks on this, instead of crazy protocols that take years. Just need to test histidine, histamine, cysteine...

    Vinegar

    Apple cider vinegar I don't like. ACV has acetaldehyde. I did my fasts to get rid of Acetaldehyde in the first place. Plus I never consume ACV since it is very high in lead. and I don't like that either. Only malic acid , clean organic malic acid.

    Just wanted to outline some of the connections among all of these for PSSD, PFS, POIS, Accutane Progestins act on progesterone, cortisol, AR, and MR receptors. I think I did not mention the MR receptor before but it is well known that progesterone blocks that receptor and causes...

    REALLY DIRTY TRIALS

    Some people use RU or Ella and then after 3 days start taking other stuff. I have spoken to some guys who took RU and they are starting to get improvements after 2-3 weeks off of RU. Potassium tanks, and then body starts to retain zinc and all other minerals that it needs. As I...

    Glutamate Decarboxylase (GLUTAMATE TO GABA CONVERSION)

    This is one of the things which is impaired in PFS. This conversion depends on many things. First -- vitamin B6 in active form. PLP. then it depends on zinc bioavailability since it is zinc that helps convert b6 into the active form. Then it depends on magnesium and b2 so that b6...
