anyone use this for hair loss?
i read it decreased DHT in the scalp. I tried rogaine, but it didn't do anything, and i am not ready to get on finasteride yet due to all the side effects.

Topical spironolactone inhibits dihydrotestosterone receptors in human sebaceous glands: an autoradiographic study in subjects with acne vulgaris.
Berardesca E, Gabba P, Ucci G, Borroni G, Rabbiosi G.
Department of Dermatology, University of Pavia, Italy.
The interaction between spironolactone and dihydrotestosterone (DHT) receptors was evaluated with an autoradiographic technique. The inhibition of DHT receptors by spironolactone was found to be related to the decrease of tritiated DHT granules in the sebaceous glands of the treated site. 6 male patients affected by acne vulgaris entered the study. The acute study was performed by applying to 25 cm2 of the back a cream containing 5% spironolactone under occlusive dressing. The dosage of spironolactone applied was 4 mg/cm2 for 48 h. The long-term study was performed by applying the same amount to the entire back, without occlusion, twice daily for 1 month. Skin biopsies were taken at the end of the treatment, incubated with tritiated DHT and processed for autoradiography. Both the acute and the long-term study revealed a decrease of the autoradiographic granules in the treated site. This effect is related to the binding of spironolactone with dihydrotestosterone receptors in the sebaceous glands. Our study demonstrates that 5% topical spironolactone cream acts as an antiandrogen in human sebaceous glands, competing with DHT receptors and producing a decrease of labelled DHT. At the concentrations used the effect has been only local. No side-effects were recorded during both studies.

Recently there are studies (Berardesca E, Gabba P, Ucci G, Borroni G, Rabbiosi G.) which suggest that topical spironolactone can act as an antiandrogen in human sebaceous glands, competing with DHT receptors and producing a decrease of labeled DHT. This means that topical spironolactone may slow down or stop hairloss by working as a DHT receptors blocker.

Got any before / after pics of someone who's tried it? One pic speaks volumes more than a huge wall of text describing the science behind the cure, which doesn't always translate successfully from theory to result.

No cure but a rug. ;D

Geee! A new topical treatment! ::)
Here's what you can do:
a. Shave your head
b. Keep your hair long, try to mask ur hairloss with weird hairdos.
c. Get a really expensive hairtransplant.
d. Get on fin/dut and hope for the best.
e. Get on these topical treatments (rogaine etc) and enjoy the thin whiskers you get from it.
b. I forgot about the "wrap around technique" nice call.

Donald Trump.
Think about it. He's got billions & yet he still has the most amazing comb over ever.
Point is...even if Money isn't a problem there's nothing that can reverse hairloss.
Stop being deluded & just Bic your head.
