5 / 1000+ resultscommunity Is anyone taking creatine while on fin and/or dut?
The conversation discusses the use of creatine while on finasteride and/or dutasteride for hair loss. Opinions vary, with some users reporting no issues and others experiencing accelerated hair loss, suggesting effects are individual.
community 1.5 Year - Bad Results (HT, FIN, MINO, PRP, etc)
A user shared their disappointing results after 1.5 years of hair treatments, including a hair transplant, finasteride, minoxidil, PRP, vegan shampoo, and more. They are considering switching to dutasteride, oral minoxidil, and improving their microneedling routine.
community Saying creatine causes loss on fin/dut makes no sense and this is why
The conversation discusses whether creatine causes hair loss for those using finasteride or dutasteride, with some suggesting creatine might increase DHT or upregulate androgen receptors, potentially leading to hair loss. Others argue the evidence is not conclusive, citing limited studies and personal anecdotes, with some avoiding creatine as a precaution.
community Stop Complaining about Creatine. You're just fixated on shedding.
Creatine is unlikely to cause hair loss as it does not raise DHT levels. Hair loss is more likely due to genetics, medications, or lifestyle changes.
community Dutasteride Users, do you Still Take Creatine?
The conversation discusses the potential impact of creatine on hair loss, with some users sharing personal experiences of increased shedding while others argue there's no scientific evidence linking creatine to hair loss. The original poster switched from finasteride to dutasteride and is considering resuming creatine after monitoring its effects on hair loss.
