Weekly summary - 61st week

While I normally report my hair loss condition weekly here, and also sometimes the side effect of Propecia that haunt me, I would like to share some of the haircare products.
On Sunday I saw in newspaper of this product, and organic haircare product call Pegaga Scalp Cleansing treatment. It is one of the organic haircare and skincare products by Paul Penders. What surprise me, and may be you is this Pegaga Sclap Cleansing Treatment is the product the research center set up by Paul Penders in Langkawi Island.
Pegaga Scalp Cleansing Treatment

Beautiful hair starts with a healthy scalp! Pegaga Scalp Cleansing Treatment naturally treats irritated and flaking scalps. Pegaga (traditionally known as “Miracle Hero of the Rainforest”) and tea-tree oil both possess remarkable antiseptic and antibacterial qualities to deep-cleanse and revitalize the scalp. Helps control itching and eliminates flaking.

Ingredients

Levens ESSENTIE Gold™,(aqua, angelica, arnica, calendula, chamomile, elderflower, ginger, ginseng root, honeysuckle, hops, horsetail, juniper, lavender, lemon balm, nettle, pegaga, peppermint, rosemary, sage, st.john’s wort, turmeric, witch hazel, yarrow) aloe vera extract, natural emulsifiers from olive oil, kukui-nut oil, pegaga extract, glycerin, jojoba oil, soybean oil, vitamin C, tea tree essential oil, sorbic acid, grapefruit extract, tocopherol (1700iu vitamin E), electro-colloidal gold, electro-colloidal silver( minerals that actively and naturally sustain healthy skin).

The price may be a little bit high, at USD 19.75 for 5fl.oz or 130ml. You can buy in online and I doubt whether we can actually buy the Paul Penders product in local store. This product is famous in US, but not so familiar to Malaysian. It may help a bit for MPB victim like us, but I don't expect much. You can try and tell me your experience if you really go for a trial.

Hair loss and libido are normal for the past few weeks. But again, I don't see much progress in term of hair regrowth. This is what worried me.

Hi..when i was at your age, i've suffered the same. Untill now it still wont stop. I kept on using many types of tonic and shampoos. None of it really help but its better than nothing, just to slow down the hair fall rate.

I think your head wasnt so bad as shown in the pics.(i dont see the full pic).

Last time, i have suffered with itchy scalp and heavy dandruff. Same like you, i do have the dandruff sticking at my hair root. All the root of my falling hair shows unhealthy root(greyed not white) and the hair is very thin.

But now all the dandruff and itchiness has gone and still the hair wont grow healtily.The baby hair kept growing and kept falling
sadly.

Last year, i took Svenson's treatment for 6 months just for corrective treatment. Then, the time passed and the treatments was over but too litle improvement.
From the consultation, i have aggreed that DHT is the main problem. Cant afford to spent 5 thounsands more as extended treatment. I quit.

Now i know the rootcause and wanted try for Propecia and Minoxidil.

Where can i get those??

I can guarantee you, going treatment in Svenson, Yun Nam Hair care, Beijing 101 are all just waste of your hard earn money and also your previous time. But most crucially is we waste the best chance to save our hair.
If we are in the initial stage, if we are able to retain our hair. Propecia is best work in the initial stage unfortunately. If you have totally bald, I afraid Propecia also can not do mush.
First, you need doctor's prescription to buy Propecia. Then you go Pharmacy to buy it. It is not cheap. RM 160 to 180 for 28 tablets.
Of course, u can buy generic online, much cheaper. So as Minoxidil. U can check the price above of my blog

Right as you said..it is much cheaper. But..how about kastam??
How was your experience buying this thing online??

Jason said...

No issue till now but I can not guarantee the kastam will not have issue in the future. If you can afford it, just buy the original.
