      A user shared their aggressive hair loss treatment regimen, which includes daily use of Avodart (dutasteride) and Minoxidil, bi-weekly use of Davines Purifying shampoo, and almost daily use of Ducray Anaphase+ shampoo, along with supplements like vitamin D3, collagen, biotin, and zinc. They also use a dermastamp every 10 days and are considering a hair transplant for increased density, followed by a switch to finasteride and Minoxidil foam.

      An 18-year-old male switched from topical finasteride and minoxidil to oral dutasteride for diffuse hair loss and saw improvement without side effects, despite experiencing scalp itch and shedding. Commenters noted significant hair regrowth and were surprised by his young age and appearance.

      community Why is everyone not directly advised Dutasteride?

      in Finasteride/Dutasteride  162 upvotes 3 weeks ago
      Dutasteride is less commonly prescribed for hair loss because it is not FDA-approved for this purpose, unlike finasteride, which is more accessible and preferred due to fewer side effects. Dutasteride may be more effective in reducing DHT but has a longer half-life and potentially more significant side effects.

      community Study shows further evidence that finasteride and dutasteride take 12-18 months or more to show significant results. Do NOT give up early

      The conversation discusses the effectiveness of finasteride and dutasteride in treating hair loss, emphasizing that significant results often take 12-18 months or more. Dutasteride is generally considered superior, with similar or fewer side effects than finasteride, but patience is required for noticeable improvement.
