    Proviron and hair loss

    I'm thinking of adding 25mg ED to my future cycle to keep my sex drive up and tha bloat down.

    My question is, if the Proviron makes me start dropping hair after a while, will it stop if I stop taking Proviron or will my hair be doomed for all future?

    Both my parents got very thick and great hair if that helps you to answer

    Cheers!

    Proviron despite being a dht derivate almost never reaches the androgen receptor so there are no worries about sides ( the same happens with gains), but its a good way to increase the % of free test during pct.

    As for its AI properties, I wouldn't count on it to do the job with heavily aromatizing compounds like test or dbol and would have letro or adex in hand.

    I'm thinking of Dbol (25mg) + Proviron(25mg) ED and then Nolva for PCT.

    add an AI such as aromasin to your pct, nolva alone wont cut it

    BTW aromasin is what just nuked my hairline. Be careful with it.

    I suppose the risk is similar to that of the other AIs, but my research into the stats among cancer patients shows more hair loss with exemestane. I think maybe the prob is that it's irreversible and your estrogen takes so much longer to recover after therapy.

    but yeah, before aromasin i had no recession or thinning, period. 7 months post-aromasin, i have MASSIVE shedding in the pattern of a Norwood 4. Utterly devastating

    for a couple months, every single day after showering when I ran my hand through my hair, it was drenched in dead hair, as if I was petting a cat or something. I tried counting, but it was too much. One handful would be something like 50 hairs. Nightmare. my friends.

    it was tho. My hairs are like extras in the movie Gettysburg, in the scene of Pickett's charge. That's the part where 5000 men charge the Union line and only like 7 of them make it there. I hear them crying in agony.

    good movie that one

    are you sure it was the aromasin that caused this???

    what cycle were you on???

    it was probably the steroids that caused the problem, not the pct!

    actually what happened with my cycle is what gave me the insight about aromasin . I aborted after just 8 days! That's all it took to get gyno. I was kickstarting a test e cycle with s-drol (f*7K me, right?) and dropped it all after that first week and went straight into pct. One inject and 8 sdrols didnt get my hairline, is was the gyno reversal.

    I jumped on letro, which didn't help, then came off with three weeks aromasin after heavy debate on this forum over what AI/SERM was the best for it.

    On the very last day of my aromasin, i noticed the thinning. You could argue it was the letro, but after hours and hours of research I'm convinced the aromasin did it. The overall prob was just reduced estrogen leading to hypersensitvity to androgens in my scalp.

    Anti-Es can phuk u up, no doubt.

    nobody ever mentions how important estrogen is for hair growth. They say the hair in the front often goes first and is really hard to get back just bc it is aromatase deficient.

    Aromasin getting in my scalp and permanently deactivating that aromatase (as opposed to occasional un-bondage from the drug/ immediate reversal upon discontinuing the therapy) is what did it.
