Hola, he ido al dermatologo porque desde hace 4 o 5 años se me cae el pelo bastante, unas temporadas mas que otras y cada vez noto noto menos pelo, sobre todo entradas y la parte del flequillo. El dermatologo me dio a elegir entre Propecia o minoxidril me explico que era cada uno y me dijo que la elección era mia. A mi lo de tomar pastillas no me gusta mucho y menos para 'toda la vida' entonces me he decidido a empezar por el minoxidril. ¿Creeis que la decisión es acertada? Yo le comente de probar las dos cosas pero me dijo que así no sabria cual me hacia efecto o iva mejor para mi.
Ella me hablo de tres marcas de minoxidril.

* Minoxidril 5% Viñas
* Regaxidil solucion
* Lavovin 5% solucion

pd: tb me recomendo unas vitaminas que tomara una temporada primavera y otoño me dijo se llaman Triconail capsulas.


No tengo ni idea cual usar, cual es mejor si es que alguno es mejor o por cual empezar.

Espero vuestros consejos y comentarios

Muchas gracias de verdad

Hola como estas !!

La verdad que cualquiera de las tres marcas es muy buena. El Viñas y el Regaxidil son mas aceitosos y el Lacovin es mas alcoholico, cualquiera es muy bueno, si quieres que te diga uno me quedo con el Viñas, compra que sea con minoxidil 5%. Este lo tenes que usar dos veces al dia, 1ml en cada aplicacion.
Otra cosa que podrias agregar es un champo con ketoconazol 2% dos veces por semana, este es un antifungico, antiseborreico y antiandrogeno suave. En cuanto a las vitaminas si quieres las puedes tomar un tiempo.

Saludos !!

bueno yo ya lo compre de farmacia , lo terminare y comprare el regaxidil .....el medico al que fui primero , pone en la reseta APLICAR NOCHES ....quiere decir que solo la use una vez al dia .....pasa algo si doblo a dos veses al dia como he leido que aconsejais ??.....una cosa mas , uso dos veses por semana un shampu k se llama KERTYOL .... el resto de la semana k podria usar ??

Hola como estas !!

No hay ningun problema, claro que lo puedes usar dos veces al dia, 1ml en cada aplicacion y tenes que dejar pasar como minimo 8hs entre cada una.
En cuanto a champo aca te dejo para que elijas : Encuesta: ¿Qué Champú Usás? - Shampoo Alopecia.

Hola como estas !!

El champo con ketoconazol 2% es un antifungico, antiseborreico y antiandrogeno suave.

Aca te dejo para que leas estos estudios :

Estimado Paul: yo recomiendo el uso de Ketoconazol para todos aquellos que tengan AGA y por supuesto, mientras no les "re-contra" seque el cuero cabelludo. Ni hablar si tenés seborrea, lo usaría sí o sí.
¿Sabés un poco de Inglés? Acá tenés diferentes estudios que demuestran su efectividad para tratar la AGA.

It can reasonably be concluded that the clinical efficacy of ketoconazole shampoo in the treatment of AGA is primarily a function of DHT pathway disruption rather than an anti-inflammatory effect. In rat studies ketoconazole caused 5-R inhibition [28]. Furthermore, in humans ketoconazole has also been shown to inhibit the binding of 5-R to sex hormone globulins [29]. These clinical studies suggest that ketoconazole like finasteride may inhibit the production of DHT. Unlike finasteride ketoconazole has been shown to bind to human AR [30]. Thus, the effect of ketoconazole on the DHT pathway may be two-fold: inhibition of DHT and/or inhibition of DHT binding to AR. Either or both of these properties would result in reduced incidence of DHT binding to AR and inhibiting the pathway that leads to the miniaturizing of hair follicles.

March 04, 2001 - American Academy of Dermatology Meeting - Washington DC - Scientists working for McNeil, makers of Nizoral anti-dandruff shampoo, presented the findings of a study done on 1% Nizoral shampoo which has good news for hair loss sufferers. It has long been known that 2% prescription Nizoral has beneficial effects on Androgenic Alopecia (MPB). It however has been unclear whether the same benefits can be obtained by using the non-prescription 1% version.
In the study presented (see below), one hundred male volunteers with mild to moderate dandruff and somewhat oily scalp, were using, in a double-blind fashion, either a 1% Nizoral shampoo or a 1% zinc pyrithione shampoo, 2-3 times a week for 6 months.
Analysis of the different parameters set up in the study shows that the hair diameter gradually increased with Nizoral use (+8.46%) over a 6 month period, whereas the diameter showed a trend to decrease with zinc pyrithione use over the same period (-2.28%). The sebum excretion rate was reduced with Nizoral (-6.54%) while it increased with zinc pyrithione (+8.2%) over the same period of time. The number of hair shed over a 24-hour period was reduced by 16.46% with Nizoral and 6.02% with zinc pyrithione after 6 months. Finally, the percentage hairs in anagen phase increased by 6.4% and 8.4% respectively during the study time.

The results are similar to a previous study done on 2% prescription strength Nizoral where it was shown that use of 2% Nizoral yielded a 7% average increase in hair shaft diameter similar to what was achieved by the control group using 2% Minoxidil and a non-medicated shampoo.

So for any hair loss sufferer, this research clearly indicates that using 1% or 2% Nizoral 2-3 times per week, will have positive effects on hair growth as well as controlling dandruff. It is still unclear at this time whether it's the anti-fungal properties or the anti-androgenic properties of Ketokonazole (active ingredient in Nizoral) thats responsible for the hair thickening effects, however because of the decrease in sebum rates as well, it is the authors opinion that the results are due to the anti-androgenic properties of Ketokonazole.

Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) binding to androgen receptors (AR) in hair follicles is commonly accepted as the first step leading to the miniaturizing of follicles associated with androgenetic alopecia (AGA). Testosterone is converted to DHT by the enzyme 5alpha-reductase. Finasateride a 5alpha-reducase inhibitor blocks the production of DHT and is currently used to treat AGA. The inhibition is not complete but a reduction of DHT systemically and in the scalp is accomplished. Ketoconazole has been clinically shown to be effective in the treatment of AGA. In this paper, evidence is presented to support the hypothesis that ketoconazole 2% shampoo has a local disruption of the DHT pathway. It is proposed that using ketoconazole 2% shampoo as an adjunct to finasteride treatment could lead to a more complete inhibition of DHT and thus better treat AGA.
