How comes PGE1 (minoxidil) grows hair in some people without PGE2?

PGE1 and PGF2a are both beneficial for hair. If you have something that increases them you should use it. PGE2 is still stronger though. Minoxidil regrowth is somewhat hit or miss, usually more miss. If you use Minox early after losing hair you're more likely to grow it back.

Swiss , from what I know Sulfasalazine is actually make increase PGE2 , Castor oil also , So may I ask why do you wanna add a real other PGE2 ? ( I think you mean the group buy + I want to say my Special thanks for your patient and answer all questions kindly, You made my week great with your blog.

Sulfasalazine increases PGE2 only slightly. Let me make an example. Sulfasalazine increases your endogenous PGE2 production somewhat, but when adding exogenous real PGE2 you're not limited in any way. It's like taking steroids. Someone who uses exogenous testosterone will get better result than someone taking a few herbs to raise his natural testosterone. Hope you understand the point I tried to make.

Hello congratulations on the results and thanks for sharing. I'm investigating, I think the aumentode PGE2 is solved with sulfasalazine and castor oil, it would be correct? and to block PGD2 it could get any more economical substitute for SETI.?

I wouldn't say it's solved by sulfa and castor alone but it's a good way to at least get close. Real PGE2 will always be superior. I haven't found a cheap alternative to Seti yet. Some guys suggested selenium and certain piperazines but we don't know the half life of those, and that's quite important for us to know.

Hi ! Great work. Aren't you afraid that the big pharma industry will come after ya ? Be carefull !

For what? I'm not selling anything and don't plan to either.

Hello Magic Swiss!!! First of all thank you for everything!! One question! When you say 1ml castor oil orally, you mean the same that you use topically?? So you put 1ml of castor oil in a glass of water ? Let me know please and greetings from Italy!

Hello magic anonymous guys.
I use a plastic syringe and draw up 1ml castor oil, put it in my mouth and chase with water. Taste is pretty bland and not bad. Topically I use only a few drops because I only apply it to the temples. You just need to cover the area so use however much you need.

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12594177 Thoughts on ciclopirox as an alternative to wounding? It increases HIF1 and VGEF (this is Captain Hook/Michael yet again)

Hi michael, don't think I know you.
They are good growth factors but I don't think you can replace physical wounding. There are so many more growth factors released by the real thing, all the EGF's, the FGF's, etc. It's going to be nearly impossible to simulate that chemically.

Where to get valproic acid? How to encorpertae into my routine? Also how to use and what dosage do I need? Thanks bro

I had some left over in my freezer from an old GB. Use at 7% daily. Only topical, never oral! Oral causes hairloss while topical does the opposite. (yes really)

What to I need to add or change in my routine for optimal results ? Dutasteride 0.5mg Spiro 200mg Minox 5mg Derma roll 1 x week Lithium chloride 1 x week Antiandrogen lotion 2 x week Castor oil 1ml 2 x day Sulfasalazine 500mg 2 x day

I don't like spiro especially not oral. It's not a drug a man should take.
For optimal results you need to block pgd2 (setipiprant) and increase pge2 (best with real pge2).

I wonder whether there's a part of you that's a provocateur with all that forum drama around you.

George Bernard shaw said it best:
"The reasonable man adapts himself to the conditions that surround him. The unreasonable man adapts surrounding conditions to himself. All progress depends on the unreasonable man."
I've never been one to bow to other people's will and don't expect me to any time soon. Yes, that pisses certain people off. I don't mind that at all.

Does PGE2 have side effects?

Topically, not really. But PGE2 is for example involved in muscle growth. Some cutting edge bodybuilders have abused injectable prostaglandins to grow to new heights. Some some stuff for you to read:
https://thinksteroids.com/articles/deeper-into-prostaglandin-use/
http://www.fitflex.com/prostaglandins.html
https://thinksteroids.com/articles/grow-even-when-off-steroids-2/
Hair and muscle, finally you can get both instead of picking one lol.

Are we sure that PGE1 is not the real thing?

Yes.
PGE1 is helpful. PF2a is helpful. But the strongest is PGE2. PGE2 is so strong it protected cancer patients receiving radiation therapy from losing hair. PGE2 is so strong it can virtually completely eliminate catagen.

Do I need sulphasalazine or sulpgasalazine EN? Noticed the different options on inhouse.

EN stands for enteric coating. That's the one you want.

Can you describe your regrowth in your own words, are you NW 0 now?

I started out close to nw3 so I often call it nw2.5. Hair growth started pretty much everywhere, all over nw0 to nw3 it suddenly popped up everywhere where I had hair as a kid. I have the outlines of a nw0 now and it feels weirdly fuzzy and strange to have hair back in that area where I had none. Density isn't what I had yet but it keeps improving and now that I have my Seti and soon pge2 it can only get better.
I noticed one thing, I am not sunburning and wounding at the very edge of my nw0 zone because that would be visible in daily life. There is less growth there compared to the zones who I treat with the needling and burning. But I don't wanna make up excuses why the edge of my scalp is weirdly red lol.

Why is PHG private then?

It's private exactly to keep the drama happening on public forums out. And the idiots. The crazies, the scammers it's working pretty well actually.

Thoughts on Certirizine orally and cistanche tubulosa.

Already talked about Certirizine check previous answers.
Cistanche seems to work similar to minox, as in that it raises pge1 which in turn lowers pge2 temporarily:
"prostaglandin E2 concentrations in the exudates were synergistically suppressed by co-administration of LJE and CTE" taken from this study: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25806080
PGE1 is good for hair growth as well, you just have to keep in mind they bot antagonistically lower each other so you should take one in the morning and the other in the evening.

In a public forum there's a guy (who seems to be retarded) saying that PHG groupbuys are a scam (I'm not saying I believe him). Is there a way to get the products like seti and others without getting into a groupbuy? What are your thoughts on this?

That's the same clown who did this: http://ask.fm/swisstemples/answer/133374840684
He participated in a groupbuy on PHG, pledged to buy huge amounts and ultimately didn't buy any of his reserved amount and got banned. Thanks to him everyone in the groupbuy (including me) had to wait several weeks until we found people to pick up his pledged deficit. Real classy guy huh?
I don't know any way to get Seti outside of groupbuys. It's gray market stuff after all. Be very wary of alibaba and other places. Their prices are too good to be true for a reason. Frankly, I'm getting really fed up with this crap. Neither me nor anyone else at PHG makes a single cent from this shit but we always have to clean up the mess when some asshole tries to cause problems. Ok fine, go ahead, buy from kane, pay three times the price. Buy from alibaba, get your 60% pure product. PHG could easily restrict its groupbuys to veteran users only and we would instantly get rid of this problem once and for all. Maybe we ought to do that in the future. I feel sorry for the newbies but you'll know who to thank when it happens.

Finally what is your regimen currently? Thanx for all.

I'll put that into the prostaglandin protocol together with explanations.
Let me give you a VERY quick writeup of the essentials:
Daily: 3% setipiprant, topical castor oil, 7% VPA in stemox
Daily oral: 10mg setipiprant, 1ml castor oil, 1000mg sulfasalazine
Weekly: dermaneedling with 1.5mm needles, 20mg Lithium chloride right after needling, 3 minute sunburn with an UVB lamp (not same day as needling!)
Going to add pge2 in the future and maybe pgf2a. Yes I'm greedy.

http://www.google.com/patents/US8765750 What do you think about this one ? a quote from this patent : " For example, the daily dose for an adult (body weight: 50 kg) may be generally about 0.05 to about 5,000 mg " thanks lot Swiss for your hard work! Noisette

Hey noisette. Interesting paper thank you. It's mostly about the synthesis of those Piperazines. "50mg to 5g" is quite a huge difference in dosage. Doesn't look like they really tested the efficacy. I also don't see the half life of this substance? Does it block PTGDS for an hour? 5 hours? An entire day? A guy sent me a link about selenium before and we have the same problem here. Do we need a constant infusion for this stuff or how long will it work by applying it once? This is another reason why I picked Setipiprant, you can use it once or twice a day and be done with it. If you want you can look deeper into these piperazines and try to find the halflife. If you find something I will put it into the blog and give you credit.

Swiss when your nw0 starts filling out will you still be a mod on PHG? Being relatively new in my hairloss journey it would be great to see people with the knowledge stay and help (with group buys ect) because i'm sure the numbers will start to thin out (Maybe for the best regarding the "celebs").

I will stay there as long as the forum keeps existing. Some of the guys have become very dear to me and I'm not one to say that lightly. Once this blog is finished I will definitely not give a fuck anymore about the public side of things but the blog will stay up as well and this ask.fm page probably too. No worries.
And yes, it would actually be a good thing if the hairloss scene dies out! Too much toxic drama and lying to make profits and other bullshit. Like a gigantic insane asylum hahaha.

Hi Swiss. I've heard that you "dislike" Cetizirine. You know that there were some positive results that, although not cosmetically significant, meant that Cet was doing something. But if you dislike it you must have a good reason. Mind to share (besides Seti being better)?

Yes sure dude. I've actually warned people before not to use Cetirizine but they wouldn't listen. Cetirizine being a cox inhibitor inhibits both the BAD and the GOOD prostaglandins. Lack of good prostaglandins is just as bad as pgd2. If you would at least use endogenous prostaglandins such as pge2, bim or others while using cetirizine you would be better off. I think I wrote about cox inhibition being the wrong way in "The Prostaglandin protocol". It's extremely important to target the right things in the prostaglandin chain.

For diffused thinning, will wounding cause shock loss or extra shedding of existing hairs?

I'm not sure personally as I've only used it in the temples. There's a guy on PHG with diffuse thinning who rolls once a week though and it doesn't cause him shedding.

How have been you applying LC? AFAIK, you've done it after wounding only, is it correct? What kind of vehicle did you use (assuming you bought it in powder form)? Thank you.

http://visitwww.formkit.com/system/files/PTJ3107396.pdf Is ciclopirox olamine of any use for decreasing PGD2? It says in this medical journal that it decreases prostaglandin and leukotriene synthesis

I did hear some people talk about that but I haven't seen any studies showing it. Do you have some? Maybe you also want to take a look at the guy who suggested selenium a few answers prior to this. I think I still have some cicopirox powder in my freezer but I doubt it's gonna work as good as seti. Let me know when you find out more. I'll put you in the blog with credits if you find something.
