B5 Megadose Hair Loss

[Blue09]

How have you been getting on brendan? I know you from the other forum. B5 ruined my hair 12 years ago and never grew back. Tried countless things and nothing worked so gave up.

Still trying not to get down about the situation and trying to find a cure/fix.nothing positive to report regarding hair growth.
I'm the same tried everything under the sun spend more than I should on vitamins and supplements.

Pantothenic acid upregulates adrenal activity which leads to increased prolactin, estrogen, and cortisol; all of which are bad for your hair.

It also upregulates endogenous progesterone hence it's skin boosting effects. If you control the downsides of pantothenic acid you should be able to reap the benefits for both your skin AND your hair.

Ideally if you want to mega dose B5 you'll want to take it with:

Vitamin D, Vitamin K2, and Magnesium (glucocorticoid inhibiting effects)
Vitamin B6 P-5-P (Prolactin inhibition and enhanced magnesium uptake)
Vitamin E (Estradiol inhibition)
Biotin (obvious reasons)
