community Anyone else get their hormone levels checked on dutasteride?
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 Hypothetically, if estradiol has been a "cure" for hair loss, could one apply estradiol topically and just take an estrogen blocker and/or testosterone to offset the systematic effects?
Topical estradiol may help with hair loss but can have systemic effects, like reduced testosterone production. Using estrogen blockers can have negative side effects, such as joint pain and reduced sex drive.
