A dermatologist advised a patient to stop taking finasteride (fin) after turning 40 due to potential risk of aggressive prostate cancer. The patient and others in the conversation debated this advice, discussing the relationship between finasteride, prostate cancer, and hair loss, and considering alternatives like topical finasteride.
community Be careful when switching from Finasteride to Dutasteride because for more efficacy.
Switching from finasteride to dutasteride may be more effective for hair regrowth due to dutasteride's stronger enzyme inhibition, but combining both drugs could enhance results. Some users report better outcomes with dutasteride, while others recommend a gradual transition to prevent potential hair loss.
community What happened to topical dutasteride??
Topical dutasteride is considered for hair loss, but concerns about systemic absorption and side effects like reduced libido are common. Users have mixed results, with some preferring oral finasteride or dutasteride despite side effects, while others find topical treatments beneficial but challenging.
community DHT reduction in the scalp for all doses of dutasteride is now available.
Higher doses of dutasteride reduce scalp DHT more effectively than finasteride, but have diminishing returns after 3mg daily and may cause more side effects. Combining dutasteride with topical minoxidil can enhance results, but using both finasteride and dutasteride together is unnecessary.
