Reversal of hair loss in Mice with “sugar gel”

@Gaston Oh wow good to know. Thanks for sharing!
I've stopped urea use on my scalp posthaste. In light of what you mention, I'm thinking of using urea on some skin growth spots on my body (particularly skin bumps under my eyes I got when I did carnivore and got deadly allergies). Do you have thoughts on that from your research?
Would you mind sharing what improvements you've noticed from increasing pro-collagenous supps to the scalp?
Also, I've been thinking of finding a good ascorbic acid/vit c powder for a few years now, and this has convinced me to pull the trigger -- do you have a source you'd suggest?
Many thanks for your contributions, Gaston!

@wester130 have you noticed any symptoms of improvement?
-
@LetTheRedeemed I don't want to influence you too much because I'm honestly not very knowledgeable. You can continue using urea; just make sure to report back to us if it seems to harm your hair density.
I'm getting slight regrowth on my temples, but that could be due to a dozen different factors.
I use C-Salts Buffered vitamin C. I can't recommend it for any particular reason, it's just what I've always used.

@Gaston gotcha. Thanks for sharing.

@Hando-Jin Do you have a quote?
-
did anyone buy it from ebay?
-
@LetTheRedeemed Have you seen any improvement since your last update?

"Ray Peat: I've been thinking that with a concentrated glucose solution, you could probably activate hair growth just by keeping your scalp moistened with glucose."

@Moonpeat, hey, I essentially gave up after 3 weeks. I realized that as much as I may not like it, I have more pressing health issues to fix first

I want to mention the anti-prolactin angle again on this thread.
I think applying an anti-prolactin chemical topically to the scalp , should be very effective.
I'm thinking about lisuride, bromocriptine or 5aDHP, which isn't just anti-prolactin but also a progestogen so even better. -
@Mauritio I've been applying bromocriptine to my scalp on an irregular basis for quite awhile and I can't say that it's produced any miracles.
