Great video. I have similar issues. I use topical finasteride. Ive used it for 4 years. First 2 years no noticeable sides. Second two sides got worse and worse. Main ones were insomnia, low libido, ed and anxiety. Took a month break during which time sides got better. Started topical again at a much lower dose. Just 0.25mg a day. First month no sides, second month sides just as bad as before. Again too a break and sides went. Started again at an even lower dose. Same story. My theory is that a tiny amount goes systemic which initially causes no issues but over time that compounds so that after a month or so even off a micro dose dht suppression is the same as off 1mg a day oral. Net result is high estradial, high shbg and low free t. All of which cause my symptoms. My thoughts going forward are to go with a micro dose by maybe on a 2 days on 2 days off cycle to mitigate this theoretical compounding of fin in my system. Do you think any of this makes sense?

Thank you doctor for good information I hope you also make similar video about gynecomastia induced by finastride And how to deal with it It looks a side effect that can be tolerated and it is has a easier surgery compared to hair transplant And one question If that side effect remains ignored Does it also cause estrogen dominance in body which leads to hypogonadism?
@hairtransplantinindia2 ай бұрын
I will surely make a video. The cause of gynecomastia is high estrogen. Not the other way around.

It's been almost 9 months since I started using 5% topical minoxidil and 0.1% topical finasteride. I've seen a noticeable improvement in hair density, but the treatment hasn't been effective in the frontal area. I'm still losing a lot of hair daily. What should I do?

Dr I have scalp psoriasis as well as male pattern baldness, should I address the psoriasis first? I have vit D insufficiency as well. Dr has prescribed me me mintop 5% and Kera XL hair growth serum for receding hairline, will the hair growth serum address the issue of dht? I want an online consultation with you regarding this.

@@hairtransplantinindia Thank you for answering. From Finasteride's mechanism of action this condition should theoretically reverse upon cessation of the drug. This is unless the constant cycle of inflammation in DED would continue once triggered, despite already restored hormone levels. Can you share any experience regarding this?
