What topical to use if I cant use propecia?

[desar]

Hey I am having really good results with minoxidil alone. I still want to add some type of anti-dht topical. spironolactone gave me really good results a few months back but also irritated the hell out of my scalp. ANy suggestions on what else I can use to speed things up a bit?
Thanks,
Desar

nothing unfortunately. minoxidil, Propecia, spironolactone, Nizoral, and dutasteride are probably the only things with reasonable safety and reasonably scientific backing. Other stuff is totally off in odd-ball territory, and you are opening yourself up to who knows how many potential nasty sides. Fluridil, 6-bap, etc. If you can't add either spironolactone or nizoral, then just stick it out with what you got. (Dunno why you can't take propecia, but if so probably can't take dutasteride too)

Hey Diddy,
Thanks for the reply. I was on Propecia for like 3 months and after the 3rd month I began getting side effects such as low ejaculate, weak erections. I realize I should have stayed on it longer but i was nervous about what it was doing to my body in the long term. I'm gonna try topical spironolactone again and if I cant tolerate it, then I will try propecia again.
Peace,
Desar
