Anyone?
Yes, I started finasteride. But switched to dutasteride. Been on for 20 years. It regrew a lot of my hair but not all and I've been maintaining at a Norwood 3Anyone?
20 years it's so nice to hear, Did you have any side effects?Yes, I started finasteride. But switched to dutasteride. Been on for 20 years. It regrew a lot of my hair but not all and I've been maintaining at a Norwood 3
Nope, only some water retention. But I was taking 5 mg proscar and 0.5 mg dutasteride daily for a few months20 years it's so nice to hear, Did you have any side effects?

Around 28, I went on and off.. should have stayed on the full time but financially at the time I couldn't keep it up because it was over $300 a month for dutasteride plus my bro science was telling me that the receptors could become desensitized to the drug if I were to remain on it for the whole time.At what age u started?

Now I take 0.5 mg daily. Sometimes I might take an extra pill. Plus I use nizoral 1% about 3 times a week mixed with niacin powder. And essential oils at night[/QUOTE
Great
I was using dutasteride alone until very recently when I added a very low dose (1.25mg a day) of oral minoxidil. I dont want to use a dose higher than this, as oral minoxidil is risky stuff. The dutasteride alone was able to completely restore my crown loss, but it only partially restored my frontal loss, so I've added the oral minoxidil to try to increase my hairline regrowth.Do you guys use any other products with Dutasteride, besides Nizoral?
shidoin - you mentioned essential oils. Can you expand?
Thanks!

I've not been on it 10 years yet, just five years, but Dutasteride has been working brilliantly for me with minimal side-effects.
If you dont have an aggressive baldness this sh*t will freeze your loss forever
Maybe you could add a low dose of oral minoxidil.I am still losing my hair with it and daily searching for news for new treatment bt sadly all that appears is bullshit

That's correct, but of course you could still use both topical and oral if you wanted toIf u take oral minoxidil u don't need to apply it on scalp right
I've been on dutasteride for over a year and still shedding like a mofo. Very slowly thinning on top.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but minoxidil doesn't do anything to stem hair loss, only encourages growth of finer dowdy, finer hair? I've never combined the meds. Using topical minoxidil would be a nightmare for me because of all the styling products I use. Oral sounds a bit risky?
