The conversation discusses using stemoxydine as a carrier for RU58841 and the search for affordable, premixed PG+E. Minoxidil is considered as an alternative, but simplicity is preferred.
The conversation is about recreating a solvent for hair loss treatments, discussing the use of water, ethanol, glycerin, dimethyl isosorbide, and polysorbate 20. The effectiveness of these solvents depends on the solubility of the substances being dissolved.
The user is seeking an alternative solvent for pyrilutamide due to skin irritation from ethanol and propylene glycol. They experienced similar issues with topical minoxidil.
The conversation is about creating a homemade solution to dilute topical finasteride using ethanol, propylene glycol, and emulsifiers. The user seeks advice on the exact percentages needed for the solution.
A user is interested in creating a hair growth serum using oleic acid, palmitoleic acid, and anhydrous ethanol, and seeks advice on sourcing these ingredients. Another user plans to mix these with minoxidil, which already contains ethanol, and mentions using RU58841.
The conversation discusses the sale of a premixed KY19382 solution for research purposes, highlighting previous unsuccessful group buys and the formulation process. Prices and purchasing options for KY19382 solutions and powder are provided.
A user mixed melatonin and vitamin E into ethanol, noticing undissolved material likely due to vitamin E's poor solubility. The precipitate is not crucial as vitamin E was only added as a preservative.
The conversation is about selling KY19382 powder, a novel activator of Wnt/β-catenin signaling, and Kolliphor EL liquid for vehicle formulation. The seller offers worldwide shipping.
The conversation discusses using glycerin instead of propylene glycol as a vehicle for topical finasteride, with concerns about glycerin causing skin issues. A suggestion is made to use a mixture of 60% ethanol, 20% glycerin, and 20% water to mitigate these concerns.
The conversation discusses the potential availability and use of the pp405 molecule for hair loss treatment, with concerns about its legitimacy and safety on the grey market. Participants also mention using products from Umbrella Labs and discuss the concentration and production costs of pp405.
The user is experiencing scalp itching from a PG ethanol base in their hair loss treatment, which includes 0.025% finasteride and 2.5% minoxidil, and is seeking alternatives without PG or ethanol. Suggestions include Zeuss non-PG foam and Ulo, which do not use PG or hydrocortisone.
The user is experiencing an allergic reaction to propylene glycol in Kirkland minoxidil and is considering switching to a foam version or a low-PG minoxidil solution. They are also contemplating oral minoxidil but are concerned about its long-term safety.
The conversation discusses the use of ethanol and propylene glycol (PG) in topical solutions for hair loss treatments, specifically Minoxidil. The user dislikes the texture of PG and questions the ideal ratio and necessity of PG in these solutions.
A minoxidil solution with only ethanol and minoxidil may not be properly absorbed without additional ingredients like propylene glycol or vegetable glycerin. It's suggested to use a reputable brand and test the product for authenticity.
Minoxidil formulations often use propylene glycol (PG) for stability and effectiveness, but PG-free alternatives like foams and PEG-based solutions can also be effective with less irritation. Concerns exist about the quality of PG-free minoxidil from lesser-known brands, especially from India, due to potential manufacturing issues.
Switching to a DIY topical finasteride solution using ethanol, glycerin, and distilled water instead of propylene glycol for a gentler application. Users report positive results with both DIY solutions and a low PG minoxidil and finasteride product from India.
Creating a propylene glycol-free Minoxidil and Tretinoin solution to reduce skin irritation and enhance effectiveness. An emulsifier like lecithin can help mix Tretinoin properly, and Minoxidil foam is an alternative without propylene glycol.
