community Why doesn’t Kevin Mann (Haircafe) use dutasteride, given that it’s more effective than finasteride?

in Finasteride/Dutasteride 42 upvotes 3 months ago

Kevin Mann avoids dutasteride because it comes in gelatin capsules, which he avoids as a vegan, and he is satisfied with finasteride's results. He prefers finasteride due to more long-term research and follows the principle of "if it ain't broke, don't fix it."
