Many thanks and glad i joined the chat. dobbo 09-09-2005 @ 10:48 PM                           reply Member Joined: Aug 2005 Spritey - Nourkin looks like snake oil to me. Complete waste of money. If you are receding as fast as you say get on propecia and minoxidil 5% asap. Also it may be worth using nizoral shampoo. All nourkin is is an expensive dietary supplement - see my posts on diet / food intolerances which may help too. Good luck joy 09-29-2005 @ 3:09 PM                           reply Member Joined: Sep 2005 Spritey Just come across your message about Nourkin.  I'm thinking about starting on Nourkin myself - is it working for you, would you reccommend it?   spritey 09-29-2005 @ 5:09 PM                           reply Member Joined: Sep 2005 Hi joy, just bought my second pack of nourkin tabs, so far nothing but will try anything and its early days, will let you know.  I have also been prescribed 'Proscar' and am taking two together, so will probably not know which one is working (please god) anyway, but hey its only money.  Good Luck. keep in touch.  By the way if you decide to buy nourkin thru holland and barrett if you smile sweetly they will knock of 10% dobbo 09-29-2005 @ 6:34 PM                           reply Member Joined: Aug 2005 If you get any result it will be down to the proscar. All Nourkin is is an expensive supplement. For about £5 you could buy multivits & minerals - spend a £7 a month on nizoral and keep £38 in your pocket marathon05 09-30-2005 @ 1:08 PM                           reply Member Joined: Sep 2005 hi i also have depleting hair line which i ought to address sooner rather than later. is nourkin really just a vitamin supplement? how long did it take people to experience the results from using propecia - also spritey did you get proscar over propecia b/c of price difference? dobbo 09-30-2005 @ 1:31 PM                           reply Member Joined: Aug 2005 Marathon 05 Yes it is just a supplement, theres more chance of me being the next PM than Nourkin stopping MPB in its tracks The sooner you start the more chance of a good result. If I was you I would get straight down to the chemists - 5% regaine and 2% nizoral. Make an appointment to see the Dr and get a private perscription for proscar (take quarter of a pill aday) cos propecia is a complete rip off - if your Dr isn't sure tell him you are depressed and will just get some generic stuff off the internet!

I will stick primarily with the treatments that are SCIENTIFICALLY proven, and approved by federal agencies to work for the majority of MPB suffers. Other 'fools gold' include procerin, laser combs, abstenence, getting a cow to lick your head, wing of bat, eye of newt, natterjack toad....... dobbo 10-04-2005 @ 4:44 PM                           reply Member Joined: Aug 2005 To continue on this theme - MPB is not caused by nutitional deficiencies - if it was all the chav kids in my town who get there sustinence from McDonalds / Iceland frozen & tinned range would all be bald. Good nutrition will help make what hair you do have healthy - but thats no good when all the hair on top has gone! You keep your hair with fin, min, and niz and make the best of it with good nutrition.
