18 months proscar

[briancl]

I have been on 1/4 proscar daily for the past 18 months. I went off and on 5% minoxidil, but never stayed consistent. As of right now I have progressed to a NW3 and my loss has not really improved. I am positive it is getting worse by the month. I have accepted the loss, but I am wondering if I should give dutasteride a try as a last resort. I am still taking the finasteride and am back on minoxidil. I have read up on dutasteride, and there are opinions of dutasteride being too harmful for your body. What do you guys think?

I take them both at the same time. I don't feel any bad stuff. I just try to limit how much work my liver enzymes have to do. But we can eat 300mg of cholesterol by only take 1mg of finasteride, so I'm not too worried.

I think I lost half a norwood in the last 4 years. But I lost a full norwood in the two years before I got on finasteride, so I'd say it's working.
