Hey, you can opt for PRP.. since it's helpful for thickening hair. As the platelets in injected plasma repairs the injuries caused by needles, it increases the blood flow in the scalp. I have seen the change in 6 sessions.

. Taking it every 4 days: • With a 0.125g dose taken every 4 days, you have 7 doses in a 30-day period (since 30 days / 4 days = 7.5 doses, rounded down to 7 doses). • Total accumulated dose = 0.125g * 7 doses = 0.875g Since each dose lasts for 30 days, and you're taking a dose every 4 days, the cumulative effect for each month remains constant at 0.875g. Therefore, over the entire year, the cumulative effect will never exceed 0.875g, as the doses from the previous months stop contributing after 30 days.

Because of these videos, I've been taking 0.5mg (half a pill of 1mg finasteride) 6 days a week for about six years. I started around my 27th birthday, and I just turned 33. At 1mg (first year or so of taking it), I felt some side effects (chest tightness, lower libido), but at the same time, I was also dealing with intense stress from being self-conscious about my hair loss and paranoid about side effects. After finding online that the efficacy is roughly the same at a half dosage with fewer side effects, I lowered the dosage. Since then, I have had no noticeable side effects, and my hair is the same with no noticeable hair loss from age 27 (I take photos once a month to track it). I should note, however, that while the rest of the men on both sides of my family are bald/balding, my 70-year-old father has nearly as much hair as I do. His father (my grandfather) was bald in his 30s, but his father's father (my great-grandfather) had a full head of hair until the day he died! Go figure. If there was a better test to figure out whether or not I was actually losing my hair or if this was my natural "mature" hair pattern like my father's, I'd pay for it. It's a little tricky for me to determine whether some depression I occasionally feel is due to the drug, my family history, or both. Many male and female members of my family deal with mild depression. In general, I have not noticed any issues with my sex drive or sex life, and if anything, as I got older, it improved alongside my overall confidence, as one would expect. That said, as I got older, I also became more comfortable with the likely chance that I'd be mostly bald one day. As you can see with both of these guys in the video, being bald does not mean you are not attractive. Some of the most powerful men in the world are bald. Some of the most attractive (as ranked by women) are as well. This is something I came to terms with myself, and it really helped me relax about the inevitable loss of my hair when I stopped taking the drug. Confidence, personality, overall health, and fitness -- and frankly, whether or not you had a good-looking face in the first place -- really are more likely to determine your "attractiveness" than your hair ever will. Some people also look better bald, especially in their 40s onward: The Rock, Jason Statham, Bruce Willis, Vin Diesel, Ed Harris (even looks badass with the donut hair), John Travolta, etc etc.

You should do one for dutasteride given its usually prescribed at 0.5mg and has a very, very long half-life. I'm not convinced the sides are worse than finasteride given how low you can dose it and still get vastly superior retention and yes, even regrowth, results.

I want to take finasteride but I am terrified to the extreme of gynecomastia recurrence. I had surgery years ago and my surgeon told me that it’s unlikely it would return if I take finasteride but not 100% risk free. There is no way I’d want to go through surgery again knowing that I will never have the same results as close to natural looking because plastic surgery is not an exact science and it would be surgery on top of existing scar tissue/trauma/fibrosis, and because of how traumatic my recovery was. It’s such a double curse that the medications that work for hair loss also cause gynecomastia :( you get your hair but then get a woman’s chest. Sigh.

I was cautious and started with 0.25mg and planned to double it after a month without side effects and then double it to the regular dose after another month. However, after 3 weeks I experienced low libido, weak erections and bad orgasms. So I continued with 0.25, but just 3-4x per week. Libido got better (still noticiably lower) and erections/orgasms improved again. I stayed on this dose and had regrowth of about 1cm. From NW 2 to 1, also aided by minox, occasional derma rolling and ketokonazole 2% shampoo. This winter I took 0.25mg daily for about 1-2 weeks and again got quite the sides with some erectile dysfunction. Lowered to 3 times/wk and everything works again. Libido is still quite a bit lower than in the beginning, but that's ok bc it used to be quite high and there are possibilities to increase that while staying on Fin. I'm just unsure whether I might have brain fog. But I had mild to middle depressive symptoms in the past (often during winter), so that might not be the medication. I might try out topical fin as soon as I find a good protocol

He's done extensive research in this area & references a lot of studies to support his position. And the *NIH* has said DHT appears not to have any benefit in adulthood! However, if I understand the hair loss doctors correctly, they say it's not a good idea to suppress DHT to 0 - and that some DHT is still needed in the system? Who's right? Why do they recommend only 1 mg 3×week instead of the FDA official 1 mg everyday? Why isn't there discussion & debate among the medical professionals as to value or not of DHT? The Hair Cafe says the most of side-effects are psychosomatic & in people's head. Maybe my side-effects are actually all in my head? I've never seen anything more confusing on the issue of DHT & how the medical professionals can't agree whether or not DHT is a trash hormone & not needed at all in adulthood.

docs, regarding side effects and custom dosing... you say finasteride lasts in the scalp skin for 30 days, leaves the body in 30hrs, and dht levels return to normal in under 2 weeks. Is it a possible idea to take finasteride in bursts of 1mg per day for seven to ten days or so at beginning of every month? So that the drug briefly builds up in the system then leaves the system only creating side effects briefly but stays in my scalp for until I start again in 20 or so days, which is ten days less than it takes to leave the scalp. So that I have finasteride in my scalp all the time and so that I only have side effects roughly half (or hopefuly a third) of the time. My hair growth responds extremely well to finasteride but the drug is quite bad to my sexual function.

They have an older video explaining that .5mg 3 times a week is a great place to start. Its a low enough dose to not cause half the side effects and also the interval is mopping up the “excessive” dht levels.

I'm thinking of trying a lower dose (0.5mg fin taken on Monday, Wednesday and Friday, so half of before) but I have a question which no one ever seems to answer. If 0.5mg and 0.25mg of fin suppress DHT by about the same amount, why would lowering the dose reduce sexual side effects? It makes no sense to me. This might work in someone experiencing nocebo but I am NOT experiencing that, my side effects were legit and both times they took a while to show up.

This is a good template range most people, but even 1-3mg weekly can achieve cessation of hairloss for many. Titration is fundamental to avoiding side effects. 1mg daily is overkill.

Question to the public: i have been taking 1 mg every day for about 3 - 4 years now. I for sure notice decreases in libido and some ED. My hair has not gotten any worse in that time , and possibly has gotten better. But i personally feel it can cause a bit of depression considering you have little drive to seek out a partner then if you do you have the paranoia of not everything working when the time comes. Has anyone else experienced the same feelings? I dont necessarily want to stop taking it because im single and would like to keep my hair but the double edge sword to this is really a problem. Wondering if i should take a few months off and or change my dosing/schedule.

When I took fin 1mg/daily for years I noticed no change to libido or function but in the 6 months since I switched to 0.5mg dutasteride daily libido is even higher than it already was and still no function issues. I think it's likely due to what I perceive to be a significant test level boost.

I have been using fin for 15 months(1mg per day)and my hairfall has paused fully but I was not seeing any regowth so I started using minoxidil once daily and now I am seeing a lot of new hair growing 📈 around hairline but it takes a lot of time for them to grow to the normal size of hair,so lads be patient everything is gonna be better ✅😉

I take 1.25 mg Finasteride daily for almost a year, no side effects yet, knock on wood. I am relatively satisfied in the sense that my hair loss has stopped, but I haven't had any noticeable regrowth yet. I hope that will come in the next year.

I have been using Finasteride since 2008 so for almost 15 years now. I experienced very noticeable regrowth right after starting the use but since then I have only been able to keep that hair. I don't have any side effects so far. I did have some very minor effects in the beginning but they faded away.

@davedunne51607 ай бұрын
No it won't have a negative impact on muscle growth. There was a study done on this and there is no evidence muscle training has any effect on hair loss. Dht causes hair loss and not the testosterone directly
There are small changes in T initially but they level out within a few weeks as the body compensates. So in essence: it will make no difference to T levels.

Fin stays in the skin for a month, but the amount that stays there reduces over that month. At the end of the month it can still be detected in the skin, but at a much lower volume than the mgs it was first taken at.
