Minoxidil is commonly available to treat male pattern baldness. It was found to be of definite help.

They are continuing to test other drugs, however.

The “Take Charge Of Your Health” Ping List

This high volume ping list is for health articles and studies which describe something you or your doctor, when informed, may be able to immediately implement for your benefit.

Email me to get on either the “Common/Top Issues” (20 - 25% fewer pings) or “Everything” list.

After getting a couple of clot shots I got gout. However, I was also on a paleo diet, and eating lots of purine meat proteins. The standard medical advice for treating gout is to reduce meat intake. I did that and it worked. However, it made me gain weight and feel bad. About that time I started taking DHEA for other maladies. And voila,. DHEA improved my gout.

The little grey cells went into overdrive. Mainstream medicine regards gout as the liver oxidizing purine proteins into uric acid instead of re-formulating purine proteins into useable proteins. It totally ignores the fact that kidneys are supposed to remove uric acid. Were my kidneys under-performing?

Minoxidil grows head hair via hormone stimulation. That’s funny because DHEA grows head hair the same way, via hormone stimulation.

Summing up, if Minoxidil fixes hair and kidney problems, and DHEA fixes hair problems, then wouldn’t DHEA work the same way as Minoxidil on kidneys?

I think DHEA must have treated my gout the same way Minoxidil does, by improving kidney function.
