community Efficacy and Systemic DHT Suppression of Topical Finasteride vs Dutasteride
Topical dutasteride may have limited absorption due to its higher molecular mass compared to finasteride, potentially affecting its efficacy in suppressing DHT locally. Microneedling might enhance dutasteride absorption, possibly offering stronger local DHT suppression with fewer systemic effects.

community Daily keto and twice daily topical fin/mix. Too much?
DutchFella1993 has been using a lotion with finasteride and minoxidil for hair regrowth with some success and is considering using ketoconazole shampoo daily to reduce scalp itchiness. There's concern about the harshness of daily shampooing and twice-daily lotion application, and one reply suggests that daily use of ketoconazole may damage hair and questions its effectiveness, while also noting that once-daily minoxidil application is sufficient.
community I think microneedling before topical application of finasteride (or dut) is a path we should investigate (for those of us who don't care about systemic absorption). Here's why...
Microneedling before applying topical finasteride or dutasteride may enhance their effectiveness by increasing local absorption in the scalp, despite concerns about systemic absorption. Users discuss combining this method with oral treatments and minoxidil, noting potential benefits and side effects.
