Anyone have any success with this? Prefer topicals. No propecia, etc.

I just saw a study that topical ethanolic extract of He Shou Wu (polygonum multiflorum) causes follicular genesis and hair regrowth.

There are more citations out there. One states folliculogenesis - I'd have to search for it.

This is specifically a topical application of the ethanolic extract.

Adenosine increases anagen hair growth and thick hairs in Japanese women with female pattern hair loss: a pilot, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial

https://pubmed.ncbi....h.gov/19239555/

 

Problem is adenosine is hard to come by. I can't get pure adenosine anywhere 

 

If someone has a source please let me know. There is a Japanese hair product with adenosine in it, but its too weak to work

Abstract

 

Male pattern hair loss (MPHL) and female pattern hair loss (FMPL) are important issues in cosmetic dermatology. The efficacy of hair tonic product containing 0.75% adenosine and 1.5% caffeine was assessed in male and female subjects with MPHL and FMPL. A single-blind, randomized, half-split study was conducted. Effectiveness of the hair tonic was assessed in the improvement of hair density by 6 weeks. In addition, satisfaction on product characteristics and hair shedding reduction were also evaluated. The results showed that the hair density was significantly increased by 40% and 55% at week 6 and week 8, respectively. Subjects scored high level on product characteristics and efficacy. No serious side effect was observed after the application. The results showed that 0.75% adenosine and 1.5% caffeine hair tonic were effective in MPHL and FMPL subjects with a high level of overall satisfaction.

Hair regrowth can be a gradual process, and it’s important to have patience while you’re working towards your goal. There are several approaches to promoting hair regrowth, such as maintaining a healthy diet, using hair growth treatments like minoxidil, and avoiding harsh hair treatments that can cause damage.

In the meantime, if you’re feeling self-conscious about your hair, wearing wigs can be a great temporary solution.
