+ 1 finasteride
ad
so i am prone to MPB and i am kind of in early stage, and i have already started minoxidil 5% weeks ago and i had alot of question is about using finasteride with AAS. i find there is alot of bs online about it and i cant seem to find any really helpful or reliable information about it.
so if someone knows does it decrease testosterone? and anything i should know about using them together would be appreciated.
and just for anyone wondering i really dont mind going bald and i know aas accelerate it but if there is a way i can keep what i have for abit longer, that would be great.

Beware of "Post Finasteride Syndrome" that some people get when they stop taking it...It's def a thing! Here is a video I found online about it. Apparently longterm/shorterm use screws up DHT levels forever in some people. Depends on the person...

Finasteride , ketoconazole (nizoral) 2%, minoxidil—the big 3. Stay on and stay consistent—the first 6 months things get worse before they improve. I had some “oh shit “ moment in first few months.
Been on for over 20 years and still have full head of hair. I stick to lower dosed, short cycles and avoid the known dht derivatives notorious for hairloss.
Finasteride actually increases test a little bit due to negative feedback from decrease in dht. This means your estro also increases which lead to sides. Also, if ur asking than you really don’t want to go bald.
Great info. Do you keep your finasteride at like 2.5mg, less, or more? Just curious, I understand it'll be different for everyone.
I use standard 1mg/day on cycle and during pct but 0.5mg/day when off. If you look at the published efficacy curves from Merck, 0.25 mg/day will actually reach the same dht levels as 1mg/day...it just takes a little longer to get there. A dose of 0.5mg/day was almost equivalent to 1mg. The studies definitely show that more is not better. I’ve done an entire year on 0.25mg/day 5 days/week and 0.5mg/day for other 2 days with no difference in hair (anecdotal of course). If you are just starting, I would use the standard 1mg/day until everything is stabilized and then reduce if you want.
Awesome man, thanks for the info +1
i will do more research on finasteride and if i do it i will keep my e2 in control.
and nah no one want to go bald specially in their twenties
thanks.
Yeah I hear you, nothing wrong with not wanting to go bald. If you have any soecific questions, you can PM me.
You might want to try a DHT blocker shampoo. My barber was starting to lose hair and switched his shampoo.. he has a full head of hair now. It might be worth the research or at least trying it out. You can find it on Amazon
I don’t know anything about Finastride -
there is alot of these stuff and you never know what works and what doesnt and they rip you off with the price because they know people losing hair are desperate and will buy anyway, and i dont really think any of that work as most people have shitty diet and lifestyle what cause them to lose hair. and when they try that "hair growth" pills or shampoo which contain average daily minerals and they start grwoing hair back they be like wow 5 stars product.
the only official medical treatments for MPB is Finasteride and minoxidil anything else is just a normal supplement.
thats how i think unless someone with Mpb tried a product that actually works please let us know.
Nah bro DHT blocker shampoos do work, they are less effective then Fina n mino but they work as advertised. Company’s like “Hims” or “Keeps” also sell all three for that reason...
I use fina and the shampoo as a precautionary measure when on cycle with Provi etc.... some may experience loss of sex drive (think it’s like 1% of users) but I don’t and keeps me from shedding too bad while on runs.
Also, I would buy from a source on here and not go through one of those company’s, cheaper n it’s all the same product
Good luck,
Live
i will have a look into them
thanks bro
