Not a problem champ. No, I purposely didn’t incorporate anything other than finasteride because these treatments are lifelong and a daily task ---There’s simply no way that I could commit to putting a product on my head once or twice a day for as long as I wanted to keep any regrowth. I’d...

In my mind it would appear to come down to how sensitive your follicles are to DHT and of course how much DHT you have at the follicular level. People like you and I with low serum DHT (not sure if it's low also at follicular level to be fair), most likely have follicles of which very sensitive...

GF tried to console me going bald, on the basis that F’ing Jason Statham looks better bald then with a full head of hair... FFS Neither myself nor the vast majority of men look as good as him when bald!! It’s like saying Kate Moss still looks good without a gigantic pair of tits. Yeah she’s a...

No sides (touch wood), no extra hair growth, just seem to be maintaining at baseline, but that’s better than it getting worse.

Will do mate! Although I don’t plan on having another DHT test unless my hair suddenly starts to get really bad or if I were to experience any concerning side effects.

Hi there My DHT blood test I gave here was done before I started taking finasteride. I’ve not had any blood tests since I started taking finasteride.

Yeah it's a total bummer, it frustrates me daily too. Sometimes on a good hair day I forget about it for that day, but those days are few and far between. At Medichecks I got the "Dihydrotestosterone" blood-test and also got the "Sports Hormone Check Plus (male)" blood-test package too. Wasn't...

Nope, I am based in the UK and I used Medichecks UK for my blood work.

You can for sure only try my man. I'm also 35, my balding has been occurring very very gradually for the past decade, but mainly so at the crown which I never really noticed until recent years when people would mention it if I was sitting or crouched. I really didn't believe them so that would...

You are correct, it appears that finasteride is not very effective if at all for me. I could possibly of stabilised. It's hard to tell as it's very gradual crown balding so the immediate hairline was not my issue and not seeing my crown too often makes assessing it quite difficult at times. Definitely...

My result = 0.66 nmol/L The "Normal Range" as per the label that did my tests = 0.34 - 2.06 nmol/L

I've been on it for about 1.5 years now and my hair has stabilised as far as I can tell. I've not had any regrowth whatsoever, however hopefully I can hang on to what i have. Zero side effects.

I've not had any side effects all all from finasteride in the 14 months I've been taking it, it's almost like I'm taking sugar pills to be quite honest. One of my friends who has been on it a lot longer than myself did recently say that he has erectile dysfunction and low sex drive from it...

If the finasteride and the binders are not mixed "properly" (i.e. for long enough and/or with a unsuitable powder blending machine), then the uneven distribution theory that Stachu gave illustration for could possibly occur, but very unlikely and also even more unlikely to make any real...

No mate, I'm still taking finasteride, still no regrowth at all, hopefully I've stabilised at around baseline. Some days my hair looks worse now than a year ago depending on how it is laying, but maybe that was how it also was a year ago, photos are key of course, but defo no regrowth at all...
