SerumDHT is mostly inactive; sebumDHT is a better measure for hair loss. Users discuss using finasteride, dutasteride, and topical treatments like KX826 and RU58841 for better scalp DHT suppression.
Switching from finasteride to a generic dutasteride led to unexpectedly high DHT levels, prompting a switch to a reputed brand and consideration of softgel capsules for better absorption. The user plans to retest DHT levels and may return to finasteride if issues persist.
The conversation is about gathering serumDHT data from individuals taking dutasteride to investigate its efficacy, especially in cases with unexpectedly low DHT reduction. The aim is to explore potential genetic factors affecting drug metabolism.
The user is starting dutasteride mesotherapy and seeks information on checking serumDHT levels in Germany. They previously tried finasteride but experienced unpleasant side effects.
