Author | Topic: Primo and hair loss | ||
Amateur Bodybuilder ![]() ![]() Posts: 95 |
I'm planning on doing a 12 week cycle with Primo Depot at 400mg/week. I value my hair. What kind of effect will Primo in these dosages have on my hair/scalp? How would Propecia fit in here? I DO NOT WANT TO LOSE ANY HAIR and if there is a good chance of this, I will change my cycle &/or dosages. Thanks for the input. ------------------ ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

Cuts, i did a 11 week of 600 Primo/week and no hairloss at all. But i used a hair protector, so i would advice you to do also. ------------------ Don't look back, life is too short ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

No it is called Dercos. You can find it in France and Belgium. Anyway this helps. You can compare this with Nizoral (i think). ------------------ Don't look back, life is too short ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

Why do people continue to insist that primo can cause hairloss? its made from dht, its doesnt aromatize into it! ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

Coolhandluke, i will not bet my life on it that it won't. It's a DHT derivate and DHT is something your hair doesn't like. ------------------ Don't look back, life is too short ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

Are you prone to hairloss? How much hair does your father, grandfather, and brothers have? If it doesn't run in your family I highly doubt that primo, or any other AS is going to cause you hairloss...especially at those doses. I tend to agree with Luke though too...people worry about primo needlessly. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

I don't think that MPB runs in my family any more than the next guy's. My dad's 55 and slowly balding, but I think that's normal. I'm 24 and haven't at all started to lose any hair... but I want to make sure it stays that way. That's why I'm trying to be extra cautious about this whole Primo-Winny cycle. Now I'm thinking about taking my Primo dosages down to 300mg/week instead of 400. Do ya'll think that'll make a difference? ------------------ ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

Primo doesn't convert into DHT,its itself is able to bind to hair follicules and cause them to fall out,and it's pretty strong,in that sense. Winstrol is exactly the same story.So,if you are prone to hairloss,then,combining two of them is a bad idea. Finasteride will not help in either case. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

if someone is predisposed to hairloss,i would advise to stay away from it.i/ve done all kinds of androgens and primo was one of the worst along with anadrol,winstrol and dbol. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

If at 24 you haven't receded at all and you haven't thinned, then the cycle you described should be fine. If you do lose some hair it won't be much and then you will at least know whether you are susceptible or not. Finasteride will not help you here. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
