A user shared their successful 50-day progress using oral minoxidil and finasteride for hair loss. They plan to switch to dutasteride after six months for potentially better results.
The conversation is about gathering serum DHT data from individuals taking dutasteride to investigate its efficacy, especially in cases with unexpectedly low DHT reduction. The aim is to explore potential genetic factors affecting drug metabolism.
Finasteride and Dutasteride are effective treatments for hair loss, with Dutasteride being superior based on long-term data. Side effects are minimal, and concerns should not deter treatment.
Stemoxydine is more expensive than minoxidil and finasteride, costing $50-$150 per month. The discussion questions why the cost is higher despite efficacy.
The user is using dutasteride and minoxidil foam for hair regrowth, applying minoxidil once daily due to side effects from the liquid form. They plan to increase dutasteride dosage and possibly apply minoxidil twice daily, while also using ciclopirox olamine shampoo and sulfur soap.
