How does Topical Spironolactone work?
Remember that Propecia, as a “DHT Inhibitor” takes upwards of 1 to 2 years to show results. Topical Spironolactone is the same. The reason for this is simple: they’re stopping further hair loss, and enabling your hair to restore itself. This takes many hair cycles, and will require your patience. Hairs in certain areas of your scalp have been genetically programmed to become sensitive to DHT. Propecia blocks DHT from forming at all. Spironolactone blocks the remaining DHT from attaching to your follicles. Follicles develop receptor sites. DHT binds to those receptors and tells your body to begin rejecting the follicles. The reason for this isn’t totally understood, but the solution is simple. Propecia stops DHT from forming, and Topical Spiro stops DHT from attacking. It’s a perfect solution. Even without Propecia, Topical Spiro can do its job just fine.
