Revivogen — Better than Propecia?

Is possible that revivogen is better than propecia and finasteride?

There is no scientific evidence that a skin application can get to the hair follicle with a DHT blocker, and as Revivogen is a topical and Propecia is an oral, therein lies the answer to your question. Revivogen does not block DHT the same way finasteride does. The study doesn’t show Revivogen working better than dutasteride or finasteride with actual hair regrowth or halting the progression of hair loss.

I really don’t understand why people would want to bother with unproven treatments and risk their progression of hair loss when there is an effective medication with great confidence that it will work (with scientific evidence to back it up).
