community How come Dut doesn’t cause more brain problems than fin if it inhibits Type 1 5AR?
Dutasteride and finasteride have similar risk profiles despite Dutasteride blocking more types of 5AR in the brain. Some users report no mood issues with either drug, and it is suggested that Dutasteride's larger molecular size may limit its ability to cross the blood-brain barrier.
community Dutasteride is possibly BETTER for the brain than Finasteride
Dutasteride may be better for the brain than Finasteride, potentially increasing dopamine levels and causing fewer side effects. For those switching from Finasteride to Dutasteride to prevent hair loss, it's recommended to continue Finasteride for 3-4 months while starting Dutasteride to avoid shedding due to Dutasteride's long half-life.
community DHT and 5AR respect post, it's importance within the brain
