    Pregnancy While Using Avodart, Any Risks?

    I'm no doctor man, there's probably a difference but I have no idea. Ejaculating inside her is mainly risky because of sperm containing low doses of dutasteride and the sperm will be in contact with the walls of her vagina etc, not necessarily because it will "reach the fetus" (it won't) or...

    Pregnancy While Using Avodart, Any Risks?

    Dutasteride is found to be in male sperm at very low ("clinically insignificant") quantities. It is thought that impregnating a woman and having aex with that woman while she's pregnant (she will be in contact with a very low dose of dutasteride if you ejaculate inside her) will probably not...

    Cetirizine (or Indomethacine) With Oral Castor Oil Or Setipiprant

    What's the reason for these things? Does this prevent gut damage in the long run?

    Topical Bicalutamide Log (lets See If This Works)

    What dosage were you on? Sorry to hear you got side effects and I don't want to be rude, but did you at least notice an improvement hair-wise (less shedding or less of an itch)?

    3 Months On Topical Dutasteride - Results

    You raise some good points. I'd love to get off oral dutasteride or at least reduce the dosage/frequency, with sperm quality and mental health (neurosteroid production) being the main reasons. I've never seen even one study in which they compared oral dutasteride to topical dutasteride while...

    Topical Progesterone / Opinions, Thoughts And Concerns

    @Canuto is right. You need either DHP (precursor of ALLO) or ALLO itself as a supplement to get those benefits. ALLO is a bit hard (and I think expensive) to get, there is a source that sells DHP though. I use it sometimes as I'm on oral dutasteride and can say I definitely felt some positive...

    3 Months On Topical Dutasteride - Results

    Sorry I haven't read the whole thread, I'm assuming you meant the post below? I did know about DHT being a paracrine hormone, it's just that I always thought that delivery to the HF was pretty hard with dutasteride. With oral dutasteride, you at least know (granted, based on one study) that...

    3 Months On Topical Dutasteride - Results

    Sorry for the thread hijack, but I made a thread about this earlier and nobody responded. Would it be of any use to combine oral dutasteride with topical dutasteride? I'm feeling that oral dutasteride is not working optimal anymore like it used to and need to add something. I looked into...

    RU makes you go bald faster long term? A theory

    This actually happens to AR in the prostate I believe. I think I've read somewhere that AR become more sensitive (aka upregulation) to androgens when prostate cancer is treated with AA medication (such as bicalutamide etc) but don't quote me on that. Should be easy to find though. I also believe...

    Oral Castor Oil And Oral Aspirin Combo

    Hope the regimen works for you, though I think oral minoxidil is going to give you much more results than the oral castor oil. Then again, castor oil is just another angle of approach. If your gut healtg can manage 5ml/day for a prolonged time, I don't see a reason to drop it.

    Combining an oral 5a-reductase inhibitor with a topic 5a-reductase inhibitor

    Does anyone have experience with combining an oral 5a-reductase inhibitor with a topical 5a-reductase inhibitor? I don't know if there would be any legitimate science behind this... But perhaps when you combine, for example, oral finasteride and topical finasteride, would you get "double...

    Oral Castor Oil And Oral Aspirin Combo

    What kind of regimen are you on? How do you know oral castor oil is working for you? I'm asking since I'm on oral castor oil as well for 2 months now, with the last month taking 5ml per day as well. So far, I've only noticed a slight effect on my beard and nothing else.
