Hi, Is anyone taking a Propecia/Avodart combination? If so, what combination would be the most effective, yet safe? Of course this should be preceded with caution. And Bryan, what are your thoughts please? Thanks

Dr Peter H. Proctor, PhD MD, response: "Yes, Propecia can occasionally cause paradoxical hyperandrogenic symptoms such as increased skin oiliness. This is thought to be secondary to the reflex increase in testosterone that happens with antiandrogens. Arguably, the reason you did not experience...

ok, thank you ...

Hi, Can anyone please tell me if Propecia maybe initially gives oily skin, scalp, and hair? I have not experienced any oily skin, scalp, and hair while on Avodart. Would anyone know why this is so? Thank you.

gotcha, thanks.

Hi Bryan, Does this also mean that finasteride in it's type 2 inhibition can have neurological side effects as dutasteride might in it's type 1 inhibition? Thanks. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/quer ... ds=9918575 http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/quer ... s=10945840

Hi, Anyone have any problems when drinking caffeinated coffee while taking Propecia or Avodart? Not at the same time. I mean maybe 30 minutes later. I've been getting one large Dunkin Donuts coffee in the morning every day for years, (but no more during the day after that) but have noticed...

Hi Bryan or anyone else, Do you think taking “high-potencyâ€￾ multi-vitamins has an adverse effect on medications like Propecia or Avodart, as far as side effects or making side effects worse? I just recently (a few days ago) switched to Walgreen’s Finest Natural Multi Vitamin & Mineral...

Question moved to HairSite and answered by Bryan. Good-bye.

Hi Bryan, I have two questions for you. 1. Several days ago you explained the equivalency of Avodart to Propecia in that “Dutasteride (Avodart) 0.1 mg/day is virtually identical to finasteride (Propecia) (that would be an Avodart every 4-5 days).â€￾ A site called Medical Wellness...

hmmmm

yes it does, good point ...

P.S. -- This was from a post in October 2003: http://www.hairsite4.com/dc/dcboard.php ... &mode=full But then you have to read below: "But some troubling findings have critics questioning just how often Proscar should be used: Men who developed prostate cancer while taking Proscar were...

thank you "In Glaxo's hairloss trial, a dose of 0.1 mg/day of dutasteride was virtually identical to finasteride, so one Avodart every 4 to 5 days would meet that definition." Hi Brian, When you mentioned the above trial, are you referring to finasteride as (5 mg) Proscar or Propecia (1 mg) also...
