      Switching from finasteride to dutasteride led to significant hair loss for the user, who is seeking advice on how long it takes for dutasteride to stabilize and show results. Many users suggest that dutasteride can take several months to a year to show improvements, and some recommend continuing finasteride alongside dutasteride during the transition.

      community Why is everyone not directly advised Dutasteride?

      in Finasteride/Dutasteride  169 upvotes 5 months 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.
