    processes that build up tissues and organs in the body

    Anabolic effects refer to the processes in the body that build up organs and tissues, primarily through the synthesis of complex molecules from simpler ones. This includes the growth of muscle mass and bone density, often influenced by hormones like testosterone. These effects are crucial for tissue repair, muscle growth, and overall physical development.

      community Why is everyone not directly advised Dutasteride?

      in Finasteride/Dutasteride  165 upvotes 1 month 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.
