community RU58841 vs 2.5 mg Dutasterid ?

community RU58841 5% is roughly equivalent to Dutasteride 2mg — here's why
RU58841 5% is theoretically equivalent to 2mg of dutasteride for hair loss treatment, with RU58841 offering higher potential but more variability due to absorption issues. Users discuss the effectiveness of RU58841 and dutasteride, with some preferring dutasteride for consistent results and others finding success with RU58841.
community Dutasteride 1mg or RU58841 8% or topical Dutasteride
The discussion focuses on hair loss treatments, with suggestions to increase oral Dutasteride to 1 mg or more, as topical Dutasteride is less effective. Other treatments mentioned include RU58841, Minoxidil, and dermastamping, with some users recommending injectable mesotherapy and topical Finasteride.

A user experienced significant hair loss despite using Dutasteride and RU58841 for three years, questioning the effectiveness of these treatments. They are considering a scalp biopsy to explore other potential causes of hair loss.
