Half-life Dutasteride MWF

[kevinme]

How long will it take for Dutasteride to leave your body and DHT levels to return to normal when using Dutasteride MWF and it has reached a steady state.

Thanks.

huh? they will never hit baseline unless you stop the drug...however, your state state dht levels will be higher than they would be if you were taking it everyday.

That's what he means: how long will it take to reach baseline levels after you stop taking it MWF.

oh in that case...months....a good 2-4 months is a good estimate.

Thanks, and do you have a calculation of this? I know Dutasteride taken everyday has a half-life of 5 weeks and then slowly leaves your body, but Dutasteride taken MWF has a shorter half-life.

At least 4 months. Based on half life and the amount of time the AR enzymes need to come back to normal levels.
