I'm currently taking 1.25mg ED of finasteride for 2 months, but I feel like adding 0.5mg of dutasteride wont hurt. Or will it? It's only once a week so how bad could it be? Think I'll get sides from that? OR I was thinking of taking them and mixing them in with minoxidil and apply it topically. Some say topical finasteride would work so why wouldn't dutasteride? Thoughts? Should I try it?? How bad is this long term?
23 y/o on finasteride, 1.25mg ED should I add dutasteride 0.5mg once a week? Or should I do topical?

2 months is too short to notice the stabilization of further hair loss and definately too short to see results. You are inhibiting DHT quite a lot already. It would make more sense to quit finasteride and just get on dutasteride. Not taking both at the same time. Just my opinion of course. I'd wait for at least a year before changing your regimen.
Zzzzz didn't you take dutasteride tho? I was just thinking like once a week instead of taking a finasteride tab, I take a dutasteride just for that one day. I just got two boxes for free and I want to do something with it lol I may experiment with derma rolling and applying it topically once a week. Anyone try that?

Both zzzzz and I are currently taking Dutasteride. Like zzzzz previously posted, just stay on Finasteride alone, you don't need anything else. There's no need to just take Dutasteride once a week, and most men with male pattern baldness don't need it, just Finasteride.
Also, no need to talk about derma rolling, that is a bad topic on this forum.
