oh, i think if topicals work for you then that's great keep using them. they can definitely work, and i think when you are using very mild drugs like t-bol they will probably have the greatest effect.
my issue with spironolactone was it was hard as hell to apply to my scalp. always got stuck in my hair and i had to use giant gobs of it because of that.
you were fine on just deca alone right? i figure most people will be, since most people respond well to finasteride/duta for hairloss and deca is exactly like running test with finasteride - in regard to hairloss, but both hormones are different from a bodybuilding perspective.
