community Research Backed Dutasteride Simulator (Serum/scalp DHT included for all doses)
A Dutasteride Simulator predicts serum dutasteride, serum DHT, and scalp DHT levels using models from research papers. It simulates various dosing schedules to determine steady-state effects and visualizes outcomes, including hair growth-related scalp DHT suppression.
community Napkin math: are we using 100x more topical finasteride than necessary?
Topical finasteride concentrations are likely much higher than necessary for effective follicular DHT suppression, with current standards being 100-1000 times above the theoretical minimum. Lower concentrations (0.001-0.0025%) might still work locally while minimizing systemic exposure.
community Dutasteride half life - conflicting information
The half-life of Dutasteride is commonly stated as around 5 weeks, but some sources suggest it is 170 hours for men aged 20–49, with further information indicating it varies from 3 days to 5 weeks depending on the dose. The user is seeking clarity on these conflicting figures.
community 1 1/2 Years progress, Topical Min/Fin
A 36-year-old man saw steady improvement in hair thickness after 1.5 years using Hims minoxidil/finasteride spray and hair/nail vitamins, with no side effects. He applies the treatment with an eye dropper for better scalp coverage and emphasizes the importance of patience and consistency.
community Study: You can safely conceive on Dutasteride
Dutasteride is considered safe for conception, with semen concentrations being too low to cause harm. Users discuss switching between dutasteride and finasteride, with some experiencing side effects like acne and heart issues, and advice is given to maintain a consistent treatment regimen.
