Nizoral OTC 1%

Well, I currently have a full head of hair to the normal person's eyes. However, I personally know that I am thinning (my center part has widened and my hairline has thinned a bit). I have very long hair, so I think that helps in people not noticing anything as well.

My current treatments are as follows:

Hairmax Lasercomb (since Feb 4) Saw Palmetto (320 MG) once daily since April 1. One Source multivitamen for Men (with extra SP and Green Tea) once daily. One cup of Green Tea since July 1

Today, I went to Walmart and purchased Nizoral 1%. My question is, will this help me? I read so much about 2%, but what about the OTC kind. Does it come even close to helping as well as the prescription strength?

Please, someone tell me and also, any ideas of what I can add to my current regime to keep my long, rock and roll hair looking good? Thanks.

I have been on 1% for about 6 years now and I have more hair than my 18 month younger brother. I attribute that to the 1% among other things. Studies has shown it helps keep what you have by effecting DHT on top of the scalp.

I also drink at least 1 cup of green tea(TAZO) but dunno if it helps. It is the next best thing to water to drink.

I think 60 Minutes did a balding segment on their show last year of 6 guys and gave them different treatments...the Lasercomb surprised some people with good results...thicker hair due to circulation. Can't you get that by messaging your scalp...hmmm free???

The best advice that can be given is to ditch the Saw Palmetto and add Minoxidil 5% and Propecia to your routine as well as the Nizoral shampoo. The other things on your routine are fine it's just that the Saw Palmetto isn't going to help your hair loss, so continuing to take it is a wasted effort.

Simply increasing the blood circulation to your head will not give you the same effect, the low level laser acts as a wound healing and anti inflammatory device that creates the results.
