26 Years Old, 5 Years on Finasteride and 3 Years on minoxidil... Where to from here?

Hey guys,

Been taking Finasteride for up to 5 years and Minoxidil for the last 3. However I'm fairly sure in the last 6 months the male pattern baldness has become more aggressive.

Thinking about either....

adding another topical instead / in addition to minoxidil LIKE spironolactone or an inhibitor????

ORRRRRR

DUTASTERIDE once or twice a week or something instead of finasteride?

I've gained a bit of weight in the last few years and feel like finasteride is playing apart. So I don't want to really go 100% everyday on a drug like dutasteride in fear of sides.

THOUGHTS or ADVICE on where to go next would be appreciated?

Cheers,

Sam

Anyone?

Some people on dutasteride end up with some fantastic results, two DHT inhibitors seems a bit too much, maybe drop finasteride and try out dutasteride?

What about dutasteride every 2nd or 3rd day and finasteride other days?
