The user shared their experience with Finasteride and Dutasteride for hair loss. They initially had success with Finasteride but switched to Dutasteride after experiencing shedding, which continued, and are now considering a hair transplant.
community Wtf have we been doing for the last 30 years
Hair loss treatments like finasteride, minoxidil, and dutasteride work but have side effects. A permanent cure is still not available due to the complexity of hair loss and limited investment.
community Why is it "not right" to start off with Dutasteride?
The conversation discusses whether it's better to start hair loss treatment with finasteride or dutasteride. Opinions vary, but many suggest starting with finasteride due to its shorter half-life and easier management of side effects, while others argue dutasteride is more effective and has fewer side effects.
community Why is everyone not directly advised Dutasteride?
Dutasteride is less commonly prescribed for hair loss because it is not FDA-approved for this purpose, unlike finasteride, which is more accessible and preferred due to fewer side effects. Dutasteride may be more effective in reducing DHT but has a longer half-life and potentially more significant side effects.
community Does the watery ejaculate issue ever resolve?
Dutasteride and finasteride can cause watery ejaculate, which may persist for some users. Zinc supplements or switching to topical treatments are suggested to alleviate this side effect.
