Trying PTD-DBM topical with valproic acid for hair thinning – any timing tips?

Posted by grinder265 in Protocols & Stacks - 1 points, 0 comments.

Hey folks, I’ve been noticing some thinning up front after a few heavy training blocks and want to give the PTD‑DBM + valproic acid combo a shot as a topical/oral stack. My plan is to mix PTD‑DBM at 1mg/ml in sterile saline and apply 1ml to the scalp each morning after my shower, then take 250mg valproic acid orally right before bed. I’m wondering if anyone has run something similar and noticed scalp irritation or any interference with recovery when dosing valproic acid at night post‑long run.

Also, should I be spacing the PTD‑DBM application a few hours after my BPC‑157/TB‑500 injections to avoid any possible skin sensitivity, or is it fine to layer them? I’m tracking my shedding count and taking monthly photos, just looking for real‑world timing feedback before I lock in a 8‑week trial. Thanks for any insight.
