I too have been experiencing lots of shed and diffuse thinning with scalp itch. However one thing to note this has happened once every few years when my body hair starts growing in places it never did before, like back and upper arms which maybe could be a spike in DHT.The fact that these issues still remain despite not taking any dutasteride for almost 3 months tells me that it probably isn't the increase in T. Any dutasteride should be out of my system by now, I would assume?
I'm going to try topical dutasteride and drop my oral finasteride dose to 1x weekly. If that fails I will either have to accept the bald and quit it all or just take an extended finasteride break to normalize my system and try again in 6-9 months. I've actually already come to terms with the hairloss even though id rather hope for continued maintenance, but if I have to let it go, it is what it is. It's the uncomfortable feeling and scalp itch that's really starting to bother me.
A break sounds like a good idea for you. Good luck brother
