regaine

hi ppl.

been a while since I been here

have been sorting all my meds out and on track for thyroxine elevated 😊

now my question is.

would there be any benefit in using regaine for hair loss till it starts growing

[greygoose]

I had the idea that if you started using Regaine, you had to take it for life. I could be wrong…

Just looked it up and yes new hair starts growing back but you are right-if you stop it drops out again!

[greygoose in reply to silverfox7]

Thank you, that's what I thought.

My hair really improved from taking a Hair, Skin & Nail supplement. About 2 weeks on Cytoplan's one, and people were commenting how much healthier my hair looked. This year I've been trying solar's version, but the Cytoplan one just worked that bit better.

Presume this is Cytoprotect?

cytoplan.co.uk/cytoprotect-...

[Cooper27 in reply to userotc]

I've had a look, and the one I took last year has been discontinued. I'm guessing this is the same one rebranded (although it costs £4 now!)

[userotc in reply to Cooper27]

Thanks. I presume you mean £4 MORE? There are others on the market eg Hairfluence, so they should be aware of the competition.

[Cooper27 in reply to userotc]

Yes, sorry £4 more! It's tough to know the quality of the competition - cytoplan are a good brand, so you absorb it better. I've not heard of hairfluence, so I don't know if they're decent or not.

[greygoose in reply to Cooper27]

Several things you should be aware of if taking Cytoplan:

* it contains copper. Hypos are usually high in copper, low in zinc. Excess copper is something you really don't want, so it would be a good idea to get tested for copper before taking any.

* It contains iodine. Hypos should not be taking iodine, you are already getting quite a bit from your thyroid hormone replacement, and excess iodine is anti-thyroid. Get tested before taking anymore.

* It contains biotin. Biotin in the system can skew blood test results, so you would need to stop taking it 7 days before a blood draw.

Thanks, I'll watch out for that in future

[pabhoo in reply to Cooper27]

thanks for that..
