Cimetidine (Propecia, Spiro, DHT & hormones ...) |
Cimetidine used for peptic ulcer has got anti-androgenic effect.
Has anyone tried it for treating hair loss?

Cimetidine |
Cimetidine was talked about ad nauseam about eight years ago when the news first broke that it may be a good treatment for hair loss. I never heard of anyone getting any results using this as a hair loss treatment.

According to physicians desk reference, patience taking cimetidine (tagamet) have had hight rates of gynecomastia than patients taking finesteride. So keep that in mind.

Most surprising if not preposterous: dutasteride is not in the list.

Very high doses of cimetidine are required to achieve good results. And this obviously causes unwanted side effects.

With regards to gynecomastia, just curious if anyone has looked into or tried using any medications which compete with the excess estradiol produced while taking finas / dutas / spiro, at the receptor site in male breast tissue. Such meds include...
• Anti-estrogen medications, selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM), such as
afimoxifene (4-hydroxytamoxifen)
arzoxifene
bazedoxifene
clomifene
lasofoxifene
ormeloxifene
raloxifene
tamoxifen
toremifene
• Aromatase inhibitors, such as
Letrozole
Anastrozole
Exemestane
