      community Is 2.5 mg of dut even worth it?

      in Finasteride/Dutasteride  28 upvotes 8 months ago
      Higher doses of dutasteride, like 2.5 mg, may offer more hair growth than 0.5 mg, but the difference is not significant for most people. Many users find 0.5 mg effective, and increasing the dose is often unnecessary unless experiencing severe hair loss.

      Hair loss treatments like finasteride, dutasteride, and minoxidil can cause initial shedding as they restart the hair growth cycle, but this is not an indicator of treatment failure. The effectiveness of these treatments should be judged by cosmetic changes over time, not by daily hair loss counts.

      The user "_Mad_Jack_" shared their progress pictures of using topical finasteride and minoxidil for 11 months. They experienced good hair retention and increased overall hair count, but no regrowth of the hairline. They are considering switching to oral finasteride and microneedling for better results. Testicular pain was a side effect experienced during the treatment. Another user mentioned getting a hair transplant to cover their crown.
