    Conflicting Dutasteride Study Regarding Serum DHT Reduction

    Yes, and guess what hair follices are connected to? Blood supply, guess where the blood supply circulates? Around your body.

    Conflicting Dutasteride Study Regarding Serum DHT Reduction

    I think you have a misunderstanding of how blood travels across your body, so if you have finasteride in your blood it's also in your scalps blood flow, which is why steroids which are directly injected into your body will still reach your hair follice bro.

    finasteride/Dutasteride together - sides, etc

    But people taking a mixture of finasteride/dutasteride throughout the week are virtually extacting the same effect as taking them together in a sense no? Considering dutasteride stays in your system for weeks it's not like it disapears on the days they take finasteride. I know taking dutasteride daily is done to keep a consistent...

    finasteride/Dutasteride together - sides, etc

    dutasteride is basically a more effective version of finasteride, but what happens if you take them together? Does dutasteride just overpower the effects of finasteride? Why do people say you are at risk for more sides if you take them both, if they don't add onto each other? - Given that some people take dutasteride 1x weekly, finasteride...

    Taking 10mg oral minoxidil for 30 day with No Result. I'm starting to panic

    I mean't you shouldn't of stopped using topical, i.e. you jumped cold turkey by the looks of it, oral minoxidil would need time to regulate in general, you could just try a low dose oral and keep your topical up. Honestly makes no sense why oral wouldn't work for you, it's not like you can LACK...

    Science Peeps - Antiandrogens Mechanism of Action

    I have a pretty good understanding of how AR inhibitors function, and I have a mild idea of what topical anti-androgen's do, but I am curious Why does DHT/T damage hair when it binds to the receptor site, but for example RU doesn't? And other topical anti androgen's, why do they not harm the...
