5 / 1000+ resultscommunity How come beard hair on minoxidil is permanent while scalp hair while on it under fin/duta is not?
Beard hair grown with minoxidil can become permanent because it is not sensitive to DHT, unlike scalp hair, which requires ongoing minoxidil use even with DHT blockers like finasteride or dutasteride. Dutasteride reduces scalp DHT significantly but not completely, which may explain why scalp hair still needs minoxidil for maintenance.
community How come topical fin doesn't deliver superior results when it suppresses scalp DHT more effectively than oral?
Topical finasteride is believed to reduce scalp DHT more than oral forms, but its effectiveness is questioned due to inconsistent application and absorption. Oral finasteride is considered more effective because it consistently reduces systemic DHT, ensuring more reliable results.
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.
