However, im very frightened of the side effects.Scott , some hair systems look ok but most look like crap . I’m 15 years on fin and losing ground. Dut is 100 times more powerful that Fin at reducing Type I, and 3 times as potent as Fin at reducing Type II. Very impressive! Again, no sides with the exception of some increased horniness the first 4-6 weeks. Initially, it was once daily. My wife and I are trying to have a baby and I find all kinds of mixed information from doctors and searching the net varying from 1) finasteride doesn’t affect pregnancy to 2) men should stop taking finasteride at least 3 months before trying to have children. If DHT suppression were safe and generally an accepted medical practice why wouldn’t merk market this drug to every man over the age of 18 as a vaccine to prevent every ailment caused by DHT. My libido has increased and I feel my body is reacting to Dut much more than Fin. @STU it’s not chicks I am into. :)Nothing new on a release date but it sounds like they are starting to try and generate advanced interest in the dermatology community for the office procedure. When was it in the pipeline? Do you have pics to document your progress that you can share? Those seem to work the same but have less sides. I come here practically everyday finding up to date information and knowledge to help deal with this stupid hair problem we have.Thanks waiting, and please make sure to read the many useful comments in the Dutasteride testimonials page (link on upper right side of blog if viewing on desktop). Not sure about possible long term side effects. I went on a forum and found dutasteride which I started using heavily at 5 pills per day. It’s been 1.5 years of everyday use and I have not experienced any side effects but I do have naturally low body fat and am vegan. It is like I am not taking it anymore at all. They just work head and shoulders above everything else.That is exactly what I say/imply in the post in the paragraph starting in “I blew off this idea….”But I do wonder if there is “something” in Fin that is not in Dut? I guess I should be greatfull for keeping an illusion of full head of hair all these years. Also, my doctor told me DHT was the most “active” form of testosterone, so I assumed that applied to the formation and maintenance of muscle mass, etc.I know this is only tangentially related to the topic, sorry.Dht is more potent than testosterone in many tissues but… not muscle mass. Good luck!Tom my situation is very similar to yours. Just like egghead says. Forum Update: Aug 19. Maybe I should try it but a shed would ruin me.in 2019 is commercialized dutasteride topico I think ???? I still have about 65% of my hair. I was worried about this too since i lift so had to dig in.This is good information to have, in regards to DHT suppression from various dosages. I know it’s crazy but the first couple weeks my hair looked thicker to a point where i wife noticed as well. Hopefully it won’t be a case for going under the knife!I used Fin for 4 years with no sides before that. The best way to reach us is by using our contact form. Just saw on NBC nightly news that they have cured aids in one patient with stem cells. The link is on the bottom right of every page. Did you change for 5x week and have you seen any improvement?Maybe this is not the most topic related question here, but can anyone comment on finasteride and pregnancy? But it’s not as effective like it used to be once upon a time… Planning to add dutasteride 0.5mg once weekly.. (I’m a female btw, 20y/o) Apparently, Dut does not inhibit Type III………I didn’t even know there was a Type III. I am also curious to hear what people think of taking their finasteride or dutasteride before eating versus after eating; in the daytime versus at night; alongside food such as grapefruit that can impact drug effectiveness; and so on.Before continuing, one thing to note is that most studies on dihydrotestosterone (DHT) reduction measure serum (aka circulating/blood) DHT levels and scalp (aka follicular) DHT levels when it comes to hair loss related discussions. Sincerely, MikeThere is a chart that can be found that tracks the serum levels of dutasteride when taken at .5mg per day vs. 1.5mg per day. Keep the faith Danny Boy! I’m thinking about taking 2mg instead of 1mg of finasteride per day now, but hesitant.Admin, i know this is off topic but wanted to mention this to you. Anyway, I will continue with the FIN, if the results keep going the way they have been, I will likely no longer have to use the sparingly amount of hair fibers I currently use (just to thicken up the crown area. I weight train 4days/week so maybe that helps alleviate the sides. I did this for a couple months before hopping on Dut, I think it was helping but I got impatient.
