community Dutasteride Hormone Roller Coaster - Testosterone down, then up, then level, then estrogen up

4 upvotes 3 years ago

Dutasteride effectively stops hair loss but can cause side effects like sexual dysfunction, muscle mass changes, and testicle shrinkage. Adjusting the dosage may help manage these side effects, but long-term health effects remain a concern.

community Hormonal Imbalance Theory and the "Trash Hormone"...

2 upvotes 3 years ago

Balancing hormones, particularly testosterone and DHT, may prevent hair loss and slow aging. Treatments include finasteride, dutasteride, zinc, magnesium, collagen, and natural DHT-blocking shampoos.

community Hormone test results - anybody else have similar with fin/dut

7 upvotes 2 months ago

A user on Finasteride for 7-8 years reported unexpectedly high testosterone levels despite expecting lower levels due to age, with discussions on the impact of SHBG and suggestions to use boron to lower SHBG. Another user noted that Dutasteride significantly increased their testosterone and free testosterone levels.

community Anyone else get their hormone levels checked on dutasteride?

in Finasteride/Dutasteride 19 upvotes 1 year ago

Dutasteride effectively reduces DHT levels and significantly increases testosterone levels. Users are cautious about adding oral minoxidil due to potential heart issues and are considering dosage adjustments with medical guidance.

community My hormone levels after 2 months of Finasteride and 2 weeks of Dutasteride

12 upvotes 4 weeks ago

The conversation discusses elevated hormone levels after using Finasteride for 2 months and Dutasteride for 2 weeks for hair loss. Users suggest that increased testosterone and estradiol levels are expected due to DHT inhibition, and it's not a concern unless symptoms occur.

learn Clascoterone

Can I use clascoterone if I'm undergoing gender-affirming hormone therapy? No published clinical trial has tested clascoterone in people on gender-affirming hormone therapy, so its safety in that group is unknown. The FDA label reports low systemic exposure and no described effect on blood testosterone, but it also records HPA-axis suppression and raised potassium in a small minority of subjects.

learn Finasteride

Frontline, gold standard treatment for combatting androgenic alopecia

learn Cyproterone

a synthetic anti-androgen and weak progestogen that inhibits DHT binding to androgen receptor

learn Dutasteride

Heavy duty finasteride that comes with higher risks

learn Azelaic Acid

acid used for antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory and anti-androgenic properties

learn Bicalutamide

a nonsteroidal anti-androgen, most commonly used orally for women

Could bicalutamide help trans women regrow hair lost to testosterone? No study has tested bicalutamide for hair regrowth in trans women. In cisgender women the only randomized trial found it added nothing to minoxidil, and it is an off-label prescription drug that requires liver monitoring.
