Staphylococcus aureus is a bacteria that can live in the nostrils, ears, mouth, tonsils, and skin. It may cause or be associated with your congestion, swollen lymph nodes, sinus problems, sore throat, eczema, rosacea, acne, cystic pimples, folliculitis, bowel disease, chronic fatigue, diabetes, lupus, weight gain, hair loss, and other diseases. Chlorhexidine, iodine, or Triple Antibiotic Ointment (Neosporin) may stop the Staph infection. See inside for more information.
2024.05.15 14:18 RevDrKC Nitric oxide?
I am treating my B12 deficiency with the help and insights from this group. Thanks! I am also getting curious as to the cause of my deficiency. I was cleared by gyn, gastro, and neuro without any significant diagnosis or even recognition of my B12 deficiency. When I asked about it, they told me it wasn't a problem and that shots would make my symptoms worse. I was offered anti-depressants and birth control pills. Glad I found this forum--I've been slowly healing with injections.
Back to causes: the worst of my symptoms (electric shocks, left sided numbness, hundreds of twitches a day, limbs falling asleep randomly, gastro symptoms, sharp shooting pains throughout my body, dpdr) correlated with using a nitric oxide nasal spray (NONS) as an antiviral. It is an OTC med in some other countries, but not in the US. I ordered it from the company. The neurologist couldn't find a connection between nitric oxide and nitrous oxide, but suggested that this NONS was my problem and that not using it would "cure" me. I have stopped using the NONS. My partner had also used this NONS and did not have the same problems I did. Because all of my symptoms lined up with a B12 deficiency, I looked at old tests in my medical chart. I had only had one, and it was in 2021. It was 220. Seems low! So now I am not sure about the potential role of the NONS in my deficiency. In 2021, I was eating animal products, taking a multi-vitamin, and using B12 energy drinks to get through overnights at the hospital (chaplain and ethicist, not medical). So I was kinda getting A LOT of B12.
I am not going back to using the NONS regardless, but I'm curious if anyone knows if nitric oxide impacts B12 metabolism. Is it really my problem? Or do I have a different B12 problem to figure out with docs when I have treated the symptoms without their help and can countenance finding one to work with?

Today, we’re focusing on an important topic - celiac disease and gluten sensitivity. These conditions can significantly impact your health and quality of life. Understanding the blood tests involved in diagnosing these conditions is crucial for managing symptoms and maintaining good health. Let’s explore what celiac disease and gluten sensitivity are, the key blood tests for diagnosis, and how to manage these conditions.
What is Celiac Disease?
Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder where the ingestion of gluten (a protein found in wheat, barley, and rye) leads to damage in the small intestine. This damage can cause a variety of symptoms and prevent the absorption of essential nutrients.What is Gluten Sensitivity?
Non-celiac gluten sensitivity (NCGS) is a condition where individuals experience symptoms similar to celiac disease when consuming gluten, but without the autoimmune response or intestinal damage seen in celiac disease.Key Blood Tests for Celiac Disease:
1. tTG-IgA (Tissue Transglutaminase Antibodies)
- What It Measures: This test checks for antibodies against tissue transglutaminase, an enzyme that is attacked in celiac disease.
- Why It’s Important: It is the most common and accurate blood test for diagnosing celiac disease.
- What Positive Results Mean: A positive result usually indicates celiac disease, but further testing (like an intestinal biopsy) is often needed for confirmation.
2. EMA (Endomysial Antibodies)
- What It Measures: This test detects antibodies against the endomysium, a part of the connective tissue.
- Why It’s Important: It is highly specific for celiac disease and is often used to confirm a positive tTG-IgA test.
- What Positive Results Mean: A positive result strongly indicates celiac disease.
3. DGP (Deamidated Gliadin Peptide Antibodies)
- What It Measures: This test identifies antibodies against deamidated gliadin peptides, which are components of gluten.
- Why It’s Important: It can be useful in diagnosing celiac disease, especially in children under 2 years old or in cases where tTG-IgA is inconclusive.
- What Positive Results Mean: A positive result can suggest celiac disease, but further testing is often required.
Additional Tests:
1. Total Serum IgA
- What It Measures: This test measures the total level of Immunoglobulin A (IgA) in the blood.
- Why It’s Important: Some people with celiac disease have IgA deficiency, which can lead to false-negative results on tTG-IgA and EMA tests. Measuring total IgA ensures accurate interpretation of these tests.
2. Genetic Testing (HLA-DQ2 and HLA-DQ8)
- What It Measures: This test checks for specific gene variants associated with celiac disease.
- Why It’s Important: The presence of HLA-DQ2 or HLA-DQ8 genes can support a diagnosis of celiac disease, but their absence can effectively rule it out.
Managing Celiac Disease and Gluten Sensitivity:
- Gluten-Free Diet: The primary treatment for both celiac disease and gluten sensitivity is a strict gluten-free diet. Avoid all foods containing wheat, barley, and rye.
- Nutritional Support: Work with a dietitian to ensure you’re getting all necessary nutrients, as celiac disease can lead to nutrient deficiencies.
- Regular Monitoring: Regular follow-ups with your healthcare provider to monitor your condition and ensure your intestines are healing.
- Read Labels: Always read food labels carefully to avoid hidden sources of gluten.
- Support Networks: Join support groups or online communities for people with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity for tips, recipes, and emotional support.
When to Get Tested:
- Symptoms: If you experience symptoms like chronic diarrhea, abdominal pain, bloating, fatigue, or unexplained weight loss after consuming gluten.
- Family History: If you have a first-degree relative with celiac disease, as it can run in families.
- Associated Conditions: If you have other autoimmune disorders, as celiac disease is more common in individuals with conditions like type 1 diabetes or thyroid disease.
Conclusion:
Understanding the blood tests for celiac disease and gluten sensitivity is essential for diagnosis and management. If you suspect you have celiac disease or gluten sensitivity, talk to your healthcare provider about getting tested. Once diagnosed, a strict gluten-free diet can help manage symptoms and improve your quality of life. If you have any questions or personal experiences with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity, share them in the comments. Your insights can help others on their journey to better health.Stay healthy and informed!

2024.05.15 13:53 BirdWithShoes Best meat for vitamins if you have HI ?
Hi everyone, I was wondering what is the best and vitamin-rich meat if you're intolerant to histamine.
I hear a lot about grass-fed beef but in France, it isn't accessible everywhere... I've heard of calf-liver too (but I've read some people react to these too, but maybe it was beef liver for them, I wouldn't know)
So far, I only seems to suffer from HI so the standard low-histamine diet suits me. I mitigate the side effects with CBD and it helps a little. It seems a little difficult to get proper amounts of B12 though and the thing is, I know I'm deficient in it... Hence my interest in meats.
Does anyone have some suggestions with that ? I already supplement iron+vit. C and zinc, separately and I wish I could also have other things/food routines that may help me to heal from this.
I react kind of well to eggs although they sometimes seems to feed my candida (biotin from it I assume) But they seems to have good benefits for my energy levels.
Thanks in advance !
PS : I seems to have candida flare-ups that comes and go... Could be the origin of my HI as it reacs to natural anti-biofilms aimed at candida. But I wouldn't know for sure (I've been tested for UTI and my last doctor told me the infection was "beheaded"... He saw no bacteria, I'm guessing it was thanks to olive oil I took maybe...)

2024.05.15 13:18 Turbulent_Ad3049 196 ng/dL to 523 ng/dL treating Lyme Disease
Hi all. Figured I’d explain what happened it case it helps someone else here.
My health (26 y/o male) went downhill in 2020 out of nowhere. I’d always been a healthy person prior to being struck down with brain fog, anxiety, fatigue, and restless legs.
My primary car doc threw the kitchen sink at me test wise and the only thing that came back positive/unequivocal was Lyme. I live in New England and spent years exploring the woods in my teens so a probably had it for a while.
I was put on 28 days of Doxycycline, which only temporarily reduced my symptoms. I was then sent to a top neurologist at Mass General where I was told there was little more I could do for a Lyme, and that my remaining symptoms were due to damage inflicted by the bacteria (Post Treatment Lyme Disease Syndrome or PTLDS).
So I went rogue: I read up on Lyme Disease and quickly realized it’s HIGHLY controversial in the medical field. The controversies center on whether PTLDS is due to a persistent infection - one that can survive commonly used antibiotics.
Here are the facts that I learned - and these are objective facts with peer- reviewed studies linked.
1) One in seven people globally carry Borrelia-specific antibodies, which indicate a current or dormant infection. Lyme is prevalent through much of America, Europe, and Asia.
https://gh.bmj.com/content/bmjgh/7/6/e007744.full.pdf
2) There is a minority of credible infectious disease doctors who believe that disseminated Lyme cannot be cured with Doxycycline alone. Once bitten, it takes the bacteria only a few weeks to leave the bloodstream and travel into neighboring tissues. The doctor who penned the treatment protocol I followed believes that Lyme moves into intracellular compartments like other chronic infections (tuberculosis, q-fever, etc), which all require months of combination antibodies with intracellular penetration to eradicate. Perhaps this is why ALL doctors agree that it is paramount to treat the infection early.
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8813852/
So anyways, after visiting the Mass General Doctor, I sought treatment at a Function Doctor who ran further lab work. My total testosterone level was 196 before starting further Lyme treatment along with other concerning vitamin deficiencies.
My treatment consisted of 6 months of Clarithromycin + hydroxychloquine, followed by another 6 months of Tetracycline. My symptoms began to diminish after 3 months on treatment and are completely gone now. My latest test reading is 523.
This is not medical advise let me make it clear. I just wanted to say that it’s possible for a long-standing infection to lower testosterone. This is clearly what happened to me.

2024.05.15 12:11 doke-smoper How to pass a drug test
Just drink like a gallon+ of water an hour or two before the test. Make sure your pee is crystal clear. Straight water. Then take some B vitamins and drink a monster. This should add some color back to your pee, just don't overdo it or it'll turn green and they'll get suspicious.
I did this for an entire year of probation and I got away with it the whole time. Then, 11 days before i was set to be done, i got sent to jail by my probation officer. I sat in jail for 3 weeks before the judge saw me.
So there i am, in court, in front of the judge. It's my turn. I've been in jail for 3 weeks. He looks at me and greets me, then he pulls out this really long piece of paper. It was several feet long, like a scroll or something. I thought he was going to read me a list of every sin I've ever committed, but it was, in fact, a list of failed drug tests.
I had to start my year of probation over.

2024.05.15 11:09 Usernamealwaystaken9 Odor WON'T GO AWAY
Hi. I am embarrassed and at my wit's end and angry at my body and I don't know what to do at this point. This may be long, and it is as much of a desperate plea for help as it is a rant at some points. It will definitely be TMI. I apologize in advance.
My vagina stinks by the end of the day, every day. Often it takes far less time to get stinky than "the end of the day". I would describe it as sometimes a strong ammonia, sometimes fishy, sometimes bitter smell that lingers in my pants and is horrible. I have done so much research and I can't figure this out. This has been going on for at least a year at this point, after a lifetime of never having an issue and having what I would consider a healthy vagina- generally either odorless or at most a little bit soumusty after a long day. I have an IUD which has been in place since 2020.
I got a call-in treatment for oral metronidazole before all this testing- a few days into treatment, I had one day of my formerly unstinky vag before I experienced wild, possibly unrelated symptoms and had to visit the hospital. I was told to stop my course of antibiotics then, and quickly Stinky Vag™ returned. I went to urgent care and tested for BV and STDs and came back clean. Then I went to my gyno and tested for BV, all the STDs, mycoplasma and ureaplasma, everything I've read about on reddit or medical studies or sketchy sites and it all came back clean. She referred me to some natural women's health place that doesn't take insurance, so I can't afford that and don't know that I trust that anyway.
I have tried lactic acid gel. I have used boric acid suppositories, at first daily when I was hoping for a cure and now only on occasion (they provide a short term break from the stink for the day after, but do not resolve symptoms and I was tired of dealing with leakage and PUTTING SOMETHING IN MY VAGINA EVERY NIGHT). I tried vitamin C suppositories. If you're thinking maybe it's because I keep putting stuff up my vagina, don't worry, I've had plenty of time in the last year to try nothing and hope my system self-regulated eventually. (It didn't.) I have switched to scent-free detergents. I use cotton underwear. I shower regularly. I sleep without undies. I assure you, I wash regularly. I have tried no soap and just washing with water, tried pH balanced (unscented) soap, then plain freaking Dove, and nothing has gotten me anywhere. I take a high dose of oral probiotics, and drink kefir and eat other fermented things. I drink water. I am sick of throwing things at the wall to see what sticks. I don't want to keep having to think about this.
Symptoms: Odor (aren't you surprised?) Sometimes when I wipe, the paper is very yellow. Odor is way worse if I've been sweating around my inner thighs (which is pretty much everyday I'm in public).
What's wrong with me? Why did all of my tests come back clean and yet my vagina. Still. Stinks. Please help me. If you know anything, any next step I can take, anywhere else I can ask, anything at all, please.

My vagina stinks by the end of the day, every day. Often it takes far less time to get stinky than "the end of the day". I would describe it as sometimes a strong ammonia, sometimes fishy, sometimes bitter smell that lingers in my pants and is horrible. I have done so much research and I can't figure this out. This has been going on for at least a year at this point, after a lifetime of never having an issue and having what I would consider a healthy vagina- generally either odorless or at most a little bit soumusty after a long day. I have an IUD which has been in place since 2020.

2024.05.15 10:25 calciumQs how likely is hypermagnesia as a sign of impaired kidney function and how to test this?
There is CKD in my family. For some reason the doctors won't test me and just keep ignoring me on this..
Do you know how common excess magnesium is from supplementation and if kidney problems are more likely?
Other than this, nothing seems to be wrong with the function based on basic "kidney function" tests..
I was taking magnesium but not high, so why would it be high? I tend to be deficient in most things which I am seeking answers on too.
I was taking about 400mg daily at first then for a long time was only taking 200 or 100 every day or second day then had a gap of months before my blood test. That's only 118% then 59% then 39% of the RDA.
And regardless, how would I take or maintain a vitamin D absorption combo if I obviously need or should stop the supplementary magnesium? So I guess it really really isn't meant to happen with supplements..?
The levels are not sky high but are high so I'll be keeping an eye on it. But it seems even a multivitamin could cause this if I take one.

2024.05.15 10:18 intentional_sea_ Suspected hydrogen sulfide sibo but test conflicting?
 | I’ve had sibo for what I imagine is a very long time now. I’ve been sick for many years and was always looking for an answer. Everything started with my digestive system. Gastritis, chronic reflux (all the time), poor absorption and severe weight loss, chronic fatigue, POTs like symptoms. The list goes on as it has become very systemic. I’ve had every test under the sun it seems. After a lot of research I thought I had sibo. I did a test and found out I had pretty high levels of hydrogen. Zero methane. I figured since my symptoms were so severe (spent a lot of time bed bound because of it) that I also had sulfide too but there is no test for that in the UK. I opted for the biomesight gut test instead. I believe it’s more likely to show (a snapshot) dysbiosis in the large intestine as it’s a stool sample, but correct me if I’m wrong. Anyway, this test seemed to show that I’m low on sulfide producing bacteria or at least the common ones (as far as I’m aware). So, can it be that I don’t have that then and it’s something else after all? Am I reading the tests wrong? Could hydrogen bacteria be just as severe symptom wise? Or could I have hydrogen sulfide bacteria in the small intestine that just wouldn’t show up on a stool sample by the time it travels down the colon? submitted by intentional_sea_ to HydrogenSulfideSIBO [link] [comments] I’m so confused, I’d be so grateful for some advice. Couldn’t fit all screenshots so ask if there are any other results I haven’t included that might be useful. |
2024.05.15 09:11 isaacnewtonx40 DIM for high estrogen levels that are causing me depression?
I am a 25 year old male. I live a super healthy lifestyle. After years of supplementing with a variety of different vitamins minerals and herbs to combat my depression I decided to neurotransmitter test. It showed low catecholamines (dopamine epinephrine and norepinephrine). I further supplemented with tyrosine, phenylalanine, iron, b vitamins and more to allow for the conversion into the neurotransmitters I was missing. That didn’t do it so I went the next step and paid 350 dollars for a complete blood panel test. As you can see in the screenshots, my estrogen levels are clinically high. I did research and it makes sense why I’m always depressed, have mood swings, feel horrible at times, and have much lower sex drive. I am starting DIM supplementation now to inhibit the aromatization of testosterone into estrogen. Wish me luck
Btw the scale goes from clinically low, functional low, optimal, functional high, and clinically high. (From left to right)

2024.05.15 09:09 Diligent_Pen_3544 How bad are these results?
Really worried I am subfertile after these results. Bit of background, 40, m who went to see urologist about varicocele. This was confirmed as grade 2. He did a comet test on me after I confirmed my partner had a miscarriage at start of the year after falling pregnant first month trying. Results just came in:
Average comet score: 35 (0-29 fertile range) Healthy sperm: 34 (69-100 fertile range) Unhealthy sperm: 0 (0-3 fertile range)
I read online that average fertile man has 90% healthy sperm so I’m pretty gutted. Dr has said I can fix varicocele with embolism but it’s circa £10-£12k and he said it might not improve results. Also told me to stop my usual vitamins and just take impryl? Suggested we explore IVF. When I asked if we could get pregnant naturally again and if we’re at increased risk of miscarriage he just said maybe and he could not say either way.

2024.05.15 08:42 DrRitamari23 What is the Microbiome?
 | Digestion is arguably the most well-known function of the human gut microbiota. In addition to producing vital vitamins like vitamin K and several B vitamins, gut bacteria aid in the breakdown of food and the fermentation of fibers. Appropriate digestion and absorption of nutrients depend on a healthy microbiota. submitted by DrRitamari23 to u/DrRitamari23 [link] [comments] https://preview.redd.it/6qys0evhdj0d1.png?width=800&format=png&auto=webp&s=42b652afac8ae5cb40addd05f8a04e4e5027f6d0 Furthermore essential to immunological function are the gut bacteria. They interact with the immune system, control inflammation, and serve as a barrier against infections. Microbiome imbalances have been connected to a number of immune-related conditions, including inflammatory bowel disease, autoimmune diseases, and allergies. https://drritamarie.com/blog/what-is-the-microbiome/ |
2024.05.15 07:45 Zealousideal_Card326 Help Interpreting Recent Blood Test Results
I recently received the results of some new blood work from my doctor, and I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed by the information. Unfortunately, I won't be able to see my doctor for a few weeks, so I'm turning to this community for some guidance.
Here's a bit of background: Following COVID-19 in 2020, I've been dealing with several health issues, including subclinical hyperthyroidism, insulin resistance, and PCOS with high testosterone levels. I've been experiencing constant symptoms like hair thinning, goiter, weight gain, hirsutism, rashes, flushing, and frequent illness. To manage these conditions, I've been prescribed Contrave and self treat with supplements like myo-inositol, spearmint tea, berberine, and a multi-vitamin. I see an endocrinologist who is reluctant to medicate and a holistic doctor who cannot prescribe.
Now, onto the recent blood test results. While my thyroid levels are finally optimal, there are several markers that are elevated and out of range, leaving me concerned:
WBC, Hematocrit, MCV, Platelets, Neutrophils Abs, Lymphs Abs, Monocytes Abs, EOS Abs, Immature Granulocytes (0%), Immature Grans Abs (0%), EGFR, Chloride
As usual, my insulin, glucose, and A1C levels are also elevated, along with my testosterone levels.
I'm reaching out to see if anyone here can offer some insight into what these results might indicate.
Or even just an idea of my doctor was looking for with these new tests.
I'd appreciate any advice or guidance you can provide. Thank you so much for taking the time to read this.

2024.05.15 05:37 SadieDaBeannnnnnnnn I'm worried I have Dysautonomia
I was diagnosed with Functional Neurological Disorder, however I have a sneaking feeling that this diagnosis isn't right. And im worried about this. I'm 15, healthy other than my new onset of symptoms, don't smoke/drink, etc. At the hospital I've gotten tested for everything mins EMG/table test/spinal tap. Do all types of Dysautonomia cause death? And do my symptoms sound like Dysautonomia? I also want to know if it sounds serious or what kind of Dysautonomia that's possible!!!
Symptoms:
*Clammy/ and purple colored skin and hands
*Nausea to the point where I couldn't eat (I'm ok now, still get nauseous but I have medicine for this)
*Blurry vision/constant right eye blurry now
*Breathing problems (shallow breathing)
*Sensitive to heat
*Slurring words (when episodes happen)
*Weak
*Hard for me to stand during episodes
*Pins and needles
*Foggy memory
*Increased Anxiety (it's real bad)
*Excess sweating
*Heartburn
+Plus more
I take nausea medication, vitamin d everyday, and nexium.

2024.05.15 05:34 el-dee-bee Almost put on 5250 because of b12 deficiency
I’m happy to provide more details if needed but will try to make it as short as possible. I (41 F) began to have some neurological symptoms last year which were getting worse, more frequent, longer lasting etc. Went to a local doctor over a few visits who ran test to start ruling things out like lupus rheumatoid arthritis etc. all normal. Symptoms getting worse now every day, I’m talking loss of bladder control, vision blurred some days, shaking legs, numbness in hands and feet and so much more. Dr says could be ms let’s order an MRI and referral to neurologist. Great MRI like 6 weeks later and neurologist October. Before MRI go to ER as directed by my dr due to other concerning factors. ER dr says sounds like MS you need to see a neurologist to which I say I am in October. ER dr ran ct scans all normal. Go get the MRI and earlier neurologist appointment. This is where ish gets wild. So happy but nervous to finally maybe get some answers. At apt I’m unwell my legs are shaking I’m emotional I’m sure not looking great with hollow eyes etc. nurse asks if I’m depressed to which I say sometimes yes it’s so bad and no one can tell me anything and it getting worse and who wouldn’t get depressed. Finally see the dr still visibly upset and emotional. Neurologist (70 w male) looks at my scans says nothing wrong asks if I’m depressed I say the same as above. He says I think we need to get your emotional state more stable which can help the physical symptoms and would I be ok to go next door to the hospital for a psych evaluation while he works on the medical side to see about additional testing. I say ok and he walks me into the er saying normally this stake 6 weeks to happen but he walks me there and talks to the staff he knows they would get it done today. Ok cool I’m about fast now as I’ve been waiting over a year. They admit me and have me put on a gown, weird but whatever. They come to put in an iv and I say hold up why do I need an iv I’m just getting an evaluation. Staring silence and then oh um I’m not sure going to have to check. Hours later ER doc aka which dr walked me in for this so I relay the neurologist name and he said oh Dr so and so is heavy handed with walking his patients down to try and get them admitted to psychiatric and then says they’re trying to decide if they’re moving me to the psych floor . EXCUSE ME WHAT? I’m dumbfounded and irritated. He says I can stay in er until psychiatrist can come down to see me. Four hours later he does tries to prescribe all these anti psychotic and depression medications blah blah. I talk my way via letting him know I’m pro therapy went for years. All the different modalities emdr blah blah. He says because I’m agreeing to fill the mirtazapine and outpatient therapy I can go. Then looks at the computer and says huh did you know your vitamin b12 is dangerously low and says they’re giving me an injection of b12 before discharging me. I get the shot and leave. Not 45 MINUTES later my legs stop shaking and aching and hour by hour my symptoms were seemingly disappearing. Is this a case of malpractice? Should I report at least the neurologist to the medical board so maybe it doesn’t happen to someone else?

2024.05.15 05:22 gomorra82 Vitamin B12 deficiency
Results from a blood test came back that I had a vitamin B12 deficiency. Upon further research online, it suggested that a severe vitamin B12 deficiency can lead to depression, paranoia and delusions, memory loss, incontinence, loss of taste and smell, and more. I need to eat more red meat.

2024.05.15 05:12 Lanky_Animator_4378 What do you think about this topical formula?
Playing around with formulas and might try this out in. Trichosol Base from Fagron since it is hypoallergenic won't irritate the scalp etc and thus doesn't require sketchy corticosteroids
Thoughts on formula are as follows. Finasteride at 0.025% to equal 0.1-0.2 mg topical systemic absorption per perfect hair health formula for 70% scalp DHT reduction with < 20% serum DHT reduction estimated
Studies showing Minoxidil 0.5% + Tret has statistically significant results at 6+ months. I think Minoxidil is poison personally. Lowest dose possible to not affect heart
Fagron TrichoXidil is doing the heavy lifting as the growth stimulant here per Fagrons studies showing increased IGF-1 etc similar to minoxidil in a 2.5% vs 2.5% study they did.
Caffeine is obvious. Studies done on this showed 0.001% to 0.005% as the effective dose. No idea why some topicals use 0.1% which is 20x higher
Tea tree oil at super low dose to modulate hair, unclog pores, reduce inflammation. One of the few oils actually worth a damn. Used to treat cold sores etc.
Aloe and biotin I will throw out unless good reason to keep. Might ditch the Minoxidil and Tretinon too to beta test the TrichoXidil
Unclear if 0.025% Fin is strong enough without propylene glycol enhancing absorption
Aloe 0.05%
Biotin 0.05%
Minoxidil 0.5%
Tretinoin 0.01%
Caffeine 0.005%
Melatonin 0.003%
Tea Tree Oil 0.05%
Finasteride 0.025%
Fagron TrichoXidil 2.50%
There's a somewhat similar interesting formula here from Bayview Pharmacy

And a Brazilian pharmacy where Fagron products are bountiful

Thoughts on formula are as follows. Finasteride at 0.025% to equal 0.1-0.2 mg topical systemic absorption per perfect hair health formula for 70% scalp DHT reduction with < 20% serum DHT reduction estimated
Studies showing Minoxidil 0.5% + Tret has statistically significant results at 6+ months. I think Minoxidil is poison personally. Lowest dose possible to not affect heart

- Autoschema & Consciousnesses: Autoschema represent fundamental components of existence; Consciousnesses embody sentient entities among the cosmos.
- Merits & Events: Objects are recategorized as Events; merits encompass events' physical and energetic characteristics.
- Warp vs. Merit: A Warp is an idealized version of a Merit, representing a desired manifestation "ordained" by a divinity.
- Mayora Singular & Menor Plural: Acknowledgment of inherent imbalance within all binary structure; one side inherently holds more power (mayora singular) than the other (menor plural) by consequence of organic imperfection.
- Engineers vs. Sphinxes: Agreeable consciousnesses are called Engineers, which drives focus to their agreeabiliy instead of their personal flaws or strengths [which are just a reflection of personal needs & wants in an archetype] & teaches the self to assume that harmony can be achieved with logical fact over unreasonable demand. Those disagreeable are termed Sphinxes, as their obfuscation & blockage are to be understood as redundantly harmful & mysterious, rather than someone to be overfocused on & dissected. This draws the focus on into refense [self-healing] rather than external conflict.
- Mutual Contravisms & Altruism: Altruism is generated when the divinity of the self chooses to equalize itself with the cosmos rather than overcome it, allowing for one to glean utopia. [[[This state is highly volatile & has yet to be tested +1x - focus on mutual contravisms allows one to be comfortably passive ((as opposed to 0d neutral?))]] This comfort emphasizes the belief in universal sacrifice for a common goal.
- Dynamic Energies: Yangs (Bounce, Whum, Dance, Whistle) are energized backwards [reflecting absorption inwards - ><], while Yins (Breathe, Stance, Stretch, Worship) are set forward [reflecting assertion outward - <>].
- Autoschema: Fundamental components of existence.
- Consciousnesses: Sentient beings within the cosmos.
- Merits: Events representing physical and energetic characteristics.
- Warp: Idealized manifestation touched by divinity.
- Mayora Singular: More powerful aspect in a binary structure.
- Menor Plural: Less powerful aspect in a binary structure.
- Engineers: Agreeable consciousnesses focused on self-healing.
- Sphinxes: Disagreeable consciousnesses lacking meaning.
- Altruism: Generated through mutual contravisms for a common goal.
- Dynamic Energies: Yangs (inwards) and Yins (outward).
- Four Divinities: Contraverse [overarcher; true "universe" - uni-verse as opposed to contra-verse], Cosmos, Self, Altruism
