Dutasteride at 0.5mg blocks 50% of scalp DHT, while higher doses like 1mg and 2.5mg block more, with 2.5mg blocking up to 80%. Some users report better results with lower doses, and there's confusion about the effectiveness of different dosages on scalp versus serum DHT.
community Changes in Scalp DHT when switching from Finasteride to Dutasteride: detailed video
Switching from finasteride to dutasteride can reduce scalp DHT levels more effectively. The discussion includes using minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841 for hair loss treatment.
community DHT reduction in the scalp for all doses of dutasteride is now available.
Higher doses of dutasteride reduce scalp DHT more effectively than finasteride, but have diminishing returns after 3mg daily and may cause more side effects. Combining dutasteride with topical minoxidil can enhance results, but using both finasteride and dutasteride together is unnecessary.
community Research Backed Dutasteride Simulator (Serum/scalp DHT included for all doses)
A Dutasteride Simulator predicts serum dutasteride, serum DHT, and scalp DHT levels using models from research papers. It simulates various dosing schedules to determine steady-state effects and visualizes outcomes, including hair growth-related scalp DHT suppression.
community Dutasteride 0.5 mg/day lowers scalp DHT levels by only 50% (but 2.5 mg/day lowers scalp DHT by 80%).
Dutasteride at 2.5 mg/day reduces scalp DHT by 80%, while 0.5 mg/day reduces it by 50%, with minimal difference in side effects. Users often combine it with finasteride, RU58841, and minoxidil for better hair loss management, though side effects like dry skin and pimples are noted.
community Do finasteride/dutasteride actually inhibit only 40/50% scalp DHT
Finasteride works by reducing DHT, which helps stop hair miniaturization. The user is on finasteride and believes it works due to its effect on growth factors and DHT reduction.
