Hmmm, with all due respect to any trans folks, I’m not here to join their number. Surely a drugs used for these reasons will have bad side effects? Im really spooked by some of what I’ve read but desperate to save my hair and preferably regrow. Messing with hormones has always been a big...

Haha I’m in a flat full of people so think it might raise some eyebrows if I start smashing a bag of pills with a hammer. Needs must though I guess. I can get the 5mg ones off a chemist.

Just tried to do this with 1mg pills and you couldn’t even crush them up, they’re properly welded together. Would have to get a hammer out. Sorry to up this, but has anyone done this before and can they recommend the results? Or alternatively, anywhere in Europe cheaper than minoxidil max? Thanks

Finasteride lotion is really difficult to get in the UK and highly expensive off this site, but they have a section about making your own: https://www.minoxidilmax.com/topical-finasteride-review-how-make-your-own-without-side-effects Basically dissolving 60mg of Finasteride in a Minoxidil...

https://www.minoxidilmax.com/topical-finasteride-review-how-make-your-own-without-side-effects I was reading this article about making your own topical Finasteride. Has anyone tried doing this and did it work? Looks like the easiest way if it’s actually effective. Thanks

Apparently it isn’t diffuse thinning but overall pattern thinning which are apparently two very different things. The donor area is strong so it isn’t diffuse, so they said.

Ok, thanks. A few questions for anyone who has taken finastride: - Does it affect muscle mass? - Does it actually increase estrogen by 15%? - Does topical work as well as the pill? - Does it stop DHT being produced or simply stop DHT binding to your hair?

Also. Is it true that it increases oestrogen in a male body by 15%? This is a concerning statistic for me. I go to the gym regularly and don’t want female hormones. I’d feel more comfortable if it remained as free testosterone than oestrogen. Thansk

Thanks. Quick question on Finastride, does it stop your body producing DHT/reduce the amount? Does it affect testosterone in your system if it isn’t being converted to DHT, or does it stop DHT binding to the hair? Does it affect say, muscle mass?

Up for if anyone knows a decent place to source topical minoxidil/finastride or whether the above website is trustworthy?

They don’t do topical at Belgravia and UK online pharmacies only do the pill. That was the best I could find. All UK sites seem to link the topical finastride search to the pill.

https://www.unitedpharmacies-uk.md/Morr-F-Minoxidil-Finasteride-3-01-60mL-p-2426.html This was the best I could find - appears to be from India. It’s priced at a decent amount but have no way of verifying if it is what it says it is. Anyone heard of them?

I just ordered the pills as it’s diffuse thinning and I can just start to see the scalp under light which has kind of jolted me into being more proactive than just Minoxidil. Do you know where you can get topical finastride? It doesn’t seem to be readily available in the UK. Are the pill sides...

Thanks, do you know where I can find it? It doesn’t seem to be readily available. Were the sides bad?

So I went to the Belgravia Centre and they recommended 1mg of finastride a day and minoxidil which I’m already using. They said I still have the follicles (minus a few at the front) so am a good profile. I’m a bit spooked by the sexual side effects, could anyone who has taken it answer a...
