Is there a consensus on which commercially available topical dutasteride is the best?
the one from FUE clinic that mustang promotes seems best to lessen absorption into the blood. but be aware, this formula is mainly for pussies that cant handle systemic absorption.Is there a consensus on which commercially available topical dutasteride is the best?
Thanks, I'm stacking with oral dutasteride anyway.the one from FUE clinic that mustang promotes seems best to lessen absorption into the blood. but be aware, this formula is mainly for pussies that cant handle systemic absorption.

Quite.now the "pussies" are the one who wants keep one of the main male hormone in their system lmao
What brand of topical finasteride did you use out of interest? People don't seem to realise that finasteride seems to lower free testosterone.7 weeks after stopping topical finasteride I did another bloodwork and my Free T is now high normal (although I don't feel like it), after 3 months of topical finasteride it was at the very low end of the range as I mentioned, what probably caused my sides like insomnia or hot flashes at night. My total T is also high normal now. Estradiol and Cortisol also normal now. Insomnia is getting slowly better.
I will do another bloodwork after the first dose of topical dutasteride to avoid, that it crashes my hormones again like finasteride.
In some of the dutasteride mesotherapy studies I noticed that it lowered fertility..sperm counts, mobility etc...that's a concern for me.You don't want it to penetrate , that is the entire point. It should be degraded or prevented from reaching the hypodermis and vascularizing but reach the dermis.
I did a scalp biopsy and my DHT was almost non existent on my scalp while I had low-normal levels in my blood.
This is ideal.
I'm on fluridil since 2 months, i don't see any improvement i think my hair is getting worse, still notice some shedding, maybe fluridil slowed down my aa and it would be worse atm, i don't know, that's why i'll try topical duta, and if it don't work i'll go bald i guess. By the way on the bottle of fluridil they say to keep on it for 3-6 month for see some improvement so I didn't experience the full strengh of fluridil i guess. 0 side ofc. I have 4 month stock leftQuite.
How is fluridil going for you btw?
im gonna take dutasteride 2mg daily now instead of 0.5mg EOD. it will reduce at least 80% of scalp dht which topical dutasteride pretty much already does. I could use it topically too but if I do then probably once weekly for me.Thanks, I'm stacking with oral dutasteride anyway.
and you are dumb for not knowing sarcasm.*Facepalm*
The literal whole f'n point of using dutasteride topically would be to avoid systemic absorption. Hard to find a dumber comment.

why a concern? your BF wont be happy? isnt your hair more worth than your stupid sperm? if you plan on getting kids you could stop using dutasteride and your sperms will go back to normal.In some of the dutasteride mesotherapy studies I noticed that it lowered fertility..sperm counts, mobility etc...that's a concern for me.
Pretty confident finasteride does the same. From my research, you should stop taking these treatments prior to trying to conceive. Maybe bank some prior to treatment?In some of the dutasteride mesotherapy studies I noticed that it lowered fertility..sperm counts, mobility etc...that's a concern for me.
I take eucapil brand, it’s 2% I think. Vehicle is alcohol and vitis vinifera.What % fluridil are you using?
What vehicle?
It was compounded at a German pharmacy for me with Minoxidil (See my post #1442). There is a pretty unknown longterm study from Egypt that showed that finasteride reduced Free T in all subjects significantly. So much less DHT and free T > severe androgen deficiency. All other studies just checked total T. I think the people that claim they don't get side effects just don't notice them because they are coming slowly over time.What brand of topical finasteride did you use out of interest?

Yep and it backs up why I don't believe finasteride is the ideal drug that some do. Low DHT, lower free test and higher estrogen just isn't good for men's health in my opinion.It was compounded at a German pharmacy for me with Minoxidil (See my post #1442).
