5 / 129 resultscommunity Does 1mg dutasteride get you most of the way there?
1 mg dutasteride may be sufficient for most people, with higher doses showing diminishing returns. Combining dutasteride with minoxidil and ketoconazole can enhance results, but oral minoxidil may cause side effects.
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.
community My 7 month oral minoxidil progress (1mg/day)

community Why do people say you will have an extremely high chance of maintenance if you are on Dutasteride, if 0.5 mg only removes 50% of scalp dht
Dutasteride and finasteride are effective for many in reducing hair loss by lowering DHT levels, though results vary based on individual sensitivity and genetics. Higher doses of dutasteride may not significantly increase hair growth due to diminishing returns, and topical finasteride is suggested as an alternative for some.
