5 / 177 resultscommunity 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.

The release of a study on 5a-reductase inhibitors (finasteride and dutasteride) which showed an increased risk of depression, dementia, decreased libido, and reduced semen load as potential side effects; discussion around other forms of hair loss treatments such as topical minoxidil, RU58841, or opting to accept baldness; and advice to consider professional help for deeper issues related to hair loss.
community 4 month update - nuclear stack, 42m
A 42-year-old user shared a 4-month update on their hair regrowth using a "nuclear stack" including oral and topical minoxidil, dutasteride, RU58841, micro-needling, keto shampoo, saw palmetto, biotin, multivitamins, scalp massages, and inversion table. They reported significant progress with minimal side effects and plan to continue the routine.
