research The Effects of Finasteride on Scalp Skin and Serum Androgen Levels in Men with Androgenetic Alopecia
Finasteride effectively reduces hair loss by decreasing androgen levels.
research Antiandrogens and Androgen Inhibitors in Dermatologic Treatments
Antiandrogens and androgen inhibitors like spironolactone, finasteride, and dutasteride can treat hair loss and skin conditions, but they have risks and side effects, including potential harm to pregnant women and risks of cancer and heart issues. Herbal remedies also have antiandrogenic effects but lack safety validation.

5 / 1000+ resultscommunity The rate of Scalp DHT suppression does not reduce hair miniaturization at the same rate
Reducing scalp DHT doesn't directly correlate with preventing hair miniaturization, as different follicles have varying sensitivity levels. Dutasteride at 0.5 mg and 2.5 mg shows minimal visual difference in hair regrowth, with side effects being a consideration for higher doses.
community Why is scalp DHT suppression lower than systemic?
Dutasteride reduces DHT more effectively in hair follicles than finasteride, but some individuals still experience hair loss despite treatment. Combining oral and topical finasteride may improve results, and some users experiment with topical dutasteride despite uncertainties about its absorption.
community Approximation of Scalp DHT Suppression Between 0.05 mg to 2.5 mg
The conversation discusses the effectiveness of various doses of Dutasteride in reducing scalp DHT and its impact on hair count. Users shared personal experiences with hair loss treatments, including Dutasteride, Finasteride, and Minoxidil, with one reporting significant hair loss reduction using a combination of oral Dutasteride and topical Minoxidil and Finasteride.
community Does Nuking Scalp DHT Theoretically Make Minoxidil Gains Permanent?
Minoxidil gains are not permanent without continued use, even with DHT suppression. Combining treatments like Dutasteride, Finasteride, and RU58841 may help maintain hair, but stopping Minoxidil typically results in hair loss.
community Research Backed Dutasteride Simulator (Serum/Scalp DHT included for all doses)
A dutasteride simulator predicts that daily 0.5 mg dosing results in higher DHT suppression compared to less frequent dosing. Twice-weekly dutasteride may be as effective as finasteride 5 mg, providing a balance between efficacy and ease of use.
