My own theory what happened to us to cause these devastating changes

General Discussion

First thing, we are not a Rat.

We are human beings, now maybe half of it but still humans.

I wonder how delicate is the structure of cells. I especialy wonder how delicate is the structure of the Brain Cells. Is there any difference of the brain structure then the other cells present anywhere else…? I am afraid there is… in humans… we are not rats… right.

Yes… Brain cells, what you think according to your personal feelings, does your problem relate more to your whole body imbalance or you are concerned more on your brain functioning and how it operates most of your body functions…

To be honest following the whole backround of my progesteron theory, the whole disturbing action takes place in the brain. I think these delicate cells has been damaged. The whole process of devastating sides starts here. Mental sides (sleep problems, brain fog, dizzines, lack of self confidence), sexual (mostly related and associated with those mental).

If your hairloss slowed down then it means that they are secured by progesteron being not converted further due to some cellular brain damage. You may call it a by product of propable brain cellular damage.

I ask myself is there any way we could restore these cells but I have no idea.

In the next post I will write about the insulin resistance which is evolving with age, that might be the cause for the permanent damage to the brain cells.

Bro, I’m sorry but you need to post scientific studies to back up your claims, otherwise these posts are simply your pet theory! No offense man but really half the time I can’t even make sense of your thinking… if you could provide some SCIENTIFIC ARTICLES which corroborate what you aer talking about, I’m sure many people would appreciate it.

Look I’m sorry but you seem to be all over the map… one week it’s teh adrenals, the next its defective 5AR, the next is elevated progesterone, now it’s insulin resistance causing brain damage…

I don’t mean to belittle or pick on you – this should actually be targetted at all posters: if people are going to claim things, they should provide scientific materials which backup their claims! Unfortunately in your specific case to date you haven’t provided one shred of scientific evidence for ANY of your theories as to WHY you think the way you do.

And unfortunately, anyone can spout off anything on here and claim they have “read and researched scientific journals”, as to what they think happened – but those words have far less merit unless they are backed up with links to scientific materials, from which one forms their opinion. Otherwise without scientific evidence and studies this is truly all mumbo-jumbo theory in one’s head.

I understand what Mew is saying, and yes, I don’t think he is trying to make you feel bad, but it is ALL about the proof.

For example, when Mew posts, he includes links to articles that back up or elaborate on what is talking about. This adds credibility to what he is saying.

That’s just the way it is, people can say whatever they want, but unless they have some sorta evidence, it will be really hard to believe it.

You are right but I’ve never found anything related or even logicaly explained what is the problem with 5 alpha reductase inhibitors, when it comes to the side effects that are so common among most members.

Nobody expained in any medical study why people have elevated progesteron long after FDA registered hairloss treatment.

If you will find a one study about anything related to the altered levels of progesteron in the blood tests I would be happy to see that.

If you know any scientific material that can explain this phenomenom I will be pleased to read so.

If it all has to be about proven science I wonder what would be this forum established for. I thought this place was established due to the ignorance of scientists and the lack of data concerning our dramatic situation.

How do you expect to find enything that would be related to our condition if most of us are ignored by the medical community.

If you can point out anything that is not correct in my theory in any scientific study I would also be glad to read it so.

As far as I know there is a science behind DHT inhibitors saying that your side effects are completely reversible… so if you believe so much in this scientific backround, what are you doing here??? Official data and scientists will show you official materials, that will prove that you are rather insane…

Mew can you explain me what is going on.

I have done research, most of it is contained in the Medical Research section of this website.

That is a blanket statement. Not everyone has this issue.

Since you’re the one proposing this theory, its up to YOU to provide the scientific material that supports your claim.

This forum was created as a place of support, warning and also to spread the word about how Finasteride operates, it’s true mechanisms of action, and its impacts on numerous bodily functions/systems beyond what Merck or the FDA might tell you – as documented by the scientific materials presented in aforementioned Medical Studies section (Finasteride Studies/Other Studies).

That is what Merck states. Do you trust them? Doubtful. And after having read through the scientific materials on this site, it should be obvious as to WHY this is not necessarily true, due to how Finasteride operates.

I do believe in scientific materials because they show the truth about how the drug works and its effects on humans, rats, and other organisms – and I HAVE posted materials to support my claims… what do you mean what am I doing here? I think it’s pretty obvious!

For some reason you don’t want to provide such materials to support your claims… one can’t just claim something and have no proof to back it up, because people are less apt to believe the claim without scientific evidence.

Of course everyone has theories, but if one is to present theories then at least reference the scientific materials on this site or elsewhere when constructng your argument.

Nobody knows the real reasons why we are experiencing this problems, it’s likely multi-factorial, but at least by investigating HOW Finasteride operates and what it impacts, we can guess with the help of studies.

“Is there any difference of the brain structure then the other cells present anywhere else…?”

And how do you tell if a rat has brain fog?

I do not think so. Central nervous system (especialy cerebellum, spine, brain) are the most delicate but still built by the same cellular DNA. On the other hand CNS is the place where we can find a huge demand for the proper mitochondria functions. Mitochondria when damaged cannot express the optimal levels of ATP which is the fuel for the whole cellular system. Mitochodria are the number 1 suspect nowadays for the process of cellular aging. Adressing your regimen to boost mitochondria functions and possibly regenerate them seems to be a good idea.

You can help your mitochondria with:

Calcium pyruvate (boosting ATP production)
Vitamin C
Vitamin D
Gingko Biloba
Omega 3
Coenzym Q10
