I would run this by your doctor as transdermal absorption *might* occur - I've found nothing that suggests it will occur or how much would be absorbed but I'd treat this as something worthy of first getting your OB's approval.

http://www.fetal-exposure.org/ANTIFUNGAL.html
IMIDAZOLES: COLTRIMAZOLE-(OTC),KETOCONAZOLE-(P) and
MICONAZOLE-(OTC)


"Imidazoles are active in treating ringworm, tinea versicolor and cutaneous candidal infections. Animal studies have suggested teratogenicity of some imidazoles in high oral doses, but not with topical use. Topical agents are absorbed less by the body when compared to oral preparations, and have not been found to be teratogenic (King et al 1998). Jick (1999) reported on 492 women exposed to various topical azoles (ketoconazole, miconazole and econazole). A relative risk of 2.1 (95% CI 0.7-6.8) was not statistically significant for an increased risk of congenital malformations, when compared to matched controls. There is some suggestion that ketoconazole and miconazole could inhibit testosterone synthesis in utero, which could potentially inhibit genital development of a male fetus. However, this has not been documented in any controlled studies. Surveillance data from the Michigan Medicaid study reported by Rosa et al (1987, did not find an increased risk for congenital malformations with miconazole or clotrimazole use during pregnancy."

Bizebee- I was curious kind of off the topic but I see you took Clomid and got BFNs...did you ever ovulate or did it just not develop into pregnancy?

I have been using the nizoral about twice a week for the last 5 months and haven t noticed any improvement, but I just got diagnosed today (finally!!!!!) and will be starting metformin and aldactone along w/ birth control and I am definitely going to get the nioxin, it's worth a try. Thanks for the tip!

You can buy tablets but apparently, ACV has a lot of the stuff. It worked for me. Just google it and do the research for yourself.
Its just ONE PART of a system that you should implement to treat your condition......hope that helps

What is ACV??

does it make sense to maybe get nioxin in the noticeably thinning systems instead of the starting to appear thin systems for better regrowth/treatment or am i falling victim to the MORE IS ALWAYS BETTER errant thinking?

i've definitely noticed thinning for the past few years, but it was never a problem for me until recently. i guess enough is enough. i'm stuck between system 3 - for chemically treated, fine, just beginning to thin and system 4 - chemically treated, fine, noticeably thinning.

any input would be appreciated.

For anyone that has Thinning Hair.

There's a product called "Thicker Fuller Hair" that has a Cell-U-Plex formula that can be bought at Walgreens or off the internet.

Thicker Fuller Shampoo
Thicker Fuller Serum
Thicker Fuller Hairspray or Gel

It got lots of reviews, people say thier hairs are thicker.

Get involved in animal rescue. You won't be sorry. Your heart may break, there may be times when your eyes are red-rimmed for days. You may lose faith in the goodness of people, but your spirit will be renewed by the resilience of those you save. It isn't easy, but it's worth it. I promise you, you will be forever changed.

The unfortunate thing about hair regrowth is the extent of time needed to actually regrow the hair. It took only a couple months to thin, but the rebuilding process is a 6 month to 2 year journey.
Here is a regrowth protocol that will help regrow hair. Its not easy, but it will help.
the results will vary from person to person. If some one actually has the discipline to follow this protocol, they will see results. good luck

Here goes.

1st 3 months....
B complex (50 mg)
B12 (500 mcg twice or one time release 1000 mcg that Country Life sells)
Aloe 3 times (1 oz)
Protein 9/10th g per kg of body wt (Nutibiotic rice protein is good)
6 glasses of dark green vegetable juice or 6 scoops of chlorophyll rich powder throughout the day.

Stage 2 Daily Protocol for 2nd 3 months

Sea Vegetables (1 serving)
Flaxseed oil (1 tablespoon_
Evening Primrose (500 mg)
Choline and Inositol (500 mg daily)
PABA (100 mg)
Folic Acid (400 mcg)
Biotin (500 mcg)

Stage 3 Protocol for 3rd 3 months

Sea Vegetable (1 serving)
Zinc (50 mg)
L-Cysteine (500 mg twice)
Evening Primrose (300 mg twice)
Panothenic acid (100 mg twice)
Vitamin E (400 IU)
Co Enzyme Q10 (100 mg twice)
Biotin (500 mcg)
Choline and inositol (500 mcg)
B complex (50 mg of each)
B12 (100 mcg)
Silica (150 mg)
PABA (250 mg)
Folic acid (800 mcg)
6 glasses of dark green vegetable juice or 3 glasses dark green vegetable juice and 3 glasses of green plant extract, or 6 scoops of chlorophyll rich
powder.

Stage 4- next 3 months
PABA (500 mg)
Panothenic acid (500 mg)
Garlic (1,000 mg)
Onion (1,000 mg)
Biotin (500 mcg)
Choline (1,000 mg)
Inositol (1,000 mg)
Niacin (250 mg)
Borage oil (500 mg)
Omega 3 oil (1,000 mg)
Cayenne (5 mg)
Protein (9/10) per kg of body weight
6 glasses of dark green vegetable juice or 3 glasses of dark green juice and 3 scoops of plant extract or 6 scoops of chlorophyll rich powder.

Please remember that you have to flood your body with chlorophyll. If you add chlorella and maca to the mix you should see faster results. Also, IC3 should be a standard in your supplementation if it isn't already. Start with one a day, before bed, and work your way up to 3 a day by the third month.

I have been having that same issue and am planning on picking up both Nioxin and Norizol TODAY! Now I think I'm reading through these posts correctly... both products are ok to use with Women's Rogaine? I'm pretty desparate... just diagnosed 12/21.

i was wondering if anyone uses nizoral everyday? or how often they do use it?

i started using it on tuesday, and have used it twice already. it seems to help the first day, and most of the second day, but at night on the second day my hair started to itch alot again and thus, resulted in more hair loss.. Maybe i should be patient and see how it goes, because things dont always work immediately - but i am getting impatient purely because im worried if the hair wont stop falling out, and if im losing it for good gets me so down its un-explainable as im sure u all feel the same way
