Hello everyone,

I'm glad this website has an English speaking section. I did notice that nobody has really posted in here in a while - so before I bother posting anything I wanted to ask... does anyone use this sub-section?

Thanks!

Thank you for the warm welcome! Yes I suffer from alopecia for like 10 years. I tried a lot of things: minoxidil, finasteride, various vitamins, and sadly I even had a failed FUT 3 years ago.
I recently started using RU when I was still in my home country, and coming in germany I looked like if there were other RU users and I found some here. I have to confess I still use google translate on some posts but as I have said I am learning german these days so hopefully in the future I will be able, maybe, to contribute in german too.

It's good to have you onboard
So what is it like to live in our "Führerhauptstadt" Berlin?

Did you try the Big 3 (FIN, Minox, Ketoconazole) simultaneously to get the positive synergies?

Other alternatives are the Antiandrogens: RU, Enzalutamide, Darolutamide.

Or stuff like Setipiprant, TM, needling (dermarolling / dermastamping)

btw.: we have a special recipe for a powerful KET lotion. You might wanna try it

I really really love Berlin so far!! There is always something to do/see and people are nice! Nod

Yeah I tried the big 3 simultaneously for 3 month now!

But I would be interested in the powerful Ket lotion if it got some good feedback could you tell me more?

Also would you have good website to get minoxidil foam? I found some but compared to my country it is a little bit expensive (I used to buy 3 bottles of rogaine foam for like 30 euros, only found around 50 euros here).

3 months is too short to see results. Keep it going

I haven't used it myself, but it is very popular among our forum members...

Unfortunately, Minoxidil products are expensive in Germany

Many of us buy here:

No I never visited Hamburg but this festival you linked seem interesting!!

I kinda have a lot of work right now but for sure I plan to visit various cities in Germany.

Yeah I will keep going with the big 3 and wait for results!! These link about the ket lotion to DIY are very interesting but there are a lot of variations... would you know what is the most popular or who could ask to (like an expert)?

Yeah, it's one of the biggest festivals in Germany and the Reeperbahn @ St. Pauli is just around the corner

The original and most popular recipe is this here:
https://www.alopezie.de/fud/index.php/t/23751/

It is a KET lotion made out of Ket-Shampoo and Alkohol. Simple as that :=)

For the "Hardcore-Variant" you add some Piroctone Olamine: https://www.dragonspice.de/naturkosmetik-htmlRohstoffe/Haarpflege/Pirocton-Olamin.html

OMG by night with the fireworks it seems amazing!!!

I am french and I am a scientist here in Germany in an university (I teach and do research).

Also I have a question is finaseteride expensive in Germany? In france I used to pay it (finasteride generric brand teva) 40 euros for 12 weeks (1 mg every day).

Many years ago I participated in a student exchange with France @ Bordeaux Pessac. It was a nice experience

Finasteride isn't expensive in Germany. 100 tablets @ 5mg cost about 60€. You can divide the tablets with a pill splitter. But you will need a doctor's prescription from your local general practitioner or dermatologist.

My field of expertise is biology.

The 5mg finasteride is given for alopecia in Germany? In France it is more for people with prostate issues but wow this is so cheap at this price!!!!
Any practitioner gives it?

(something like that )

Good to have a biologist onboard!

Bordeaux was nice. I especially liked the "Dune du Pilat" and the Bassin d'Arcachon... and the chateaus and picturesque villages were superb

Officially it's for prostate issues, but many doctors prescribe it "off-label" for Alopecia Androgenetica. You go to a doctor of choice and say: "Dear doctor, I've had 5mg pills of Finasteride in the past and I need a new private prescription. And I really want 5mg because it's way cheaper than the overpriced 1mg version. I have a pill splitter at home, so I can make four 1,25mg portions. No problem there. I am a biologist and have pharmaceutical expertise. Don't worry! (something like that )

Most uf us on this forum use the 5mg version. There are some doctors who will deny you the 5mg pills, but most general practitioners & dermatologists shouldn't give you any trouble. Maybe we have someone from Berlin on this forum who can recommend a general practitioner or dermatologist. (just open a new thread on this subforum: https://www.alopezie.de/fud/index.php/f/5/ )

Hey my dude thank you for all these advices!! I will definitely see a dermatologist soon (for other issues) so I will ask and indeed I dont maybe being a biologist could help!

If some day you need anything from France and I can help let me know!

Will not be able to help a lot for Alyzée!!!
