Hairloss topicals seem to systematically effect my body. whether its pain in my hands and wrist, or knee. or heart palpitations. and Finasteride and Dutasteride seem to give me an bad scalp itch while giving me little to no other sides

im scared i am having an immune response. i fear my body is reacting to anything it feels is a threat.

i am rarely ever ill, and when i am i can get over it in a day and rarely ever have i caught any infections or anything like that so i think i have quite a strong immune system... but i fear that might also be my down fall when it comes to trying to adapt my body to changes that it will try and correct.

I am unsure the immune system interprets finasteride as a threat and kills it and/or gives you an itch.
More probably you are not a responder and/or are suffering from the nocebo effect.

Since I got off dutasteride my scalp has been so sensitive. I'm shedding at a fast pace and I still have a scalp itch. Not one as bad as when i was on dutasteride but for some reason it's still there. this wasn't the case a few years ago. Back then my scalp could handle minoxidil and other topicals. But now it always feels irritated in the receding areas and minoxidil, spectral.dnc or revivogen scalp therapy only enhances the receding itch. Once I wash it out the itch feeling cuts down 70%

I dunno. Something feels wrong.
