How safe is RU58841? Will it cause same sides as FIN?

[cp9]

Just ordered a ton load of RU (after seeing hellouser's success from it) from Kane because I can't tolerate Fin anymore..
Anyone who had sides from fin switched to RU? If so, any success in getting rid of the sides and still maintaining/regrowing hair?
I had testicular atrophy from fin, my testes are still in bad shape and I was hoping getting off fin would solve it.
Also real scared of gyno.. none so far though.
I just want to know what I'm going to be dealing with before I start the regime.

Any knowledge on this topic would be much appreciated!

Man its hard to give a clear cut answer there. I would just start at a 2% dose and slowly work your way up as long as you have no sides. What vehicle are you using?

Thanks for the reply! I plan on mixing it with lipogaine.. I've heard a few people doing that and proven to be effective. Are you on RU at the moment? Is it ok for me to drop propecia completely and just go with RU?

Ya I'm on both and no sides. But obviously if you add RU chance of sides will be increased, and you want to get off fin anyways may as well drop it.

btw what dose of fin are you on? You COULD try going to a very low dose fin while you introduce RU

I'm only on like 0.25mg EOD lol. My body doesn't like it already. I'm starting to thin real bad on my crown and my hairline looks horrible.. This is so lame.. I'm only 21.. sigh.

Im 21 too brah. Hairline is gonzo! Trying to save it but still on a steady decline...I feel your pain lol

I personally had sides from RU. Main ones:

-Irritated red/bloodshot eyes
-Inconsistent morning wood
-Impacted my libido negatively and strength at the gym.

Granted, I also took FIN prior to RU and experienced major sides from that so clearly my body is sensitive to anything anti-androgen. It's like my body is telling me "WTF are you doing to me."

My point is, I started off at a low dose and still felt sides as soon as my 2nd application. This stuff isn't a joke.

Unfortunately, I now have a bunch of KB Solution and over 9 grams of RU I will never use again. Sucks, but I'll never effect my hormones again for anything hairloss related. Not worth it.

So StayThick, what are you doing now about your hair loss? CB?

I totally feel you and had the same side effects from finasteride. However, it sounds like you barely have any hair loss at all so you could perhaps afford to forego finasteride. However, my hair loss is further along than yours and I'm afraid that if I don't continue to take finasteride, I will go bald and quickly.

If those are the only sides from RU.. I'd much rather have them than to have my balls shrunken down to near grape sized. I'm just worried about infertility and gyno. It's weird because my libido seems to be fine though. Just added MSM/VIT C to my regime.. Hopefully that'll help with the thickness.

These sides sound a lot like the sides you get from fin! I have heard of others getting sides from RU also. I guess it is not free from sides like many try to make it seem. If you look at the percentage of guys taking RU and experiencing sides, and compare them to the men taking fin and having sides the numbers will most likely be similar if not worse for RU.

My morning wood tends to go away on RU as well. My libido has been decreased. I probably got more sides with RU than I did with fin.

How much RU were you using? I've just started with 20mg.. I kinda want to drop propecia for a bit and just use RU for now. Then maybe pick propecia back up later.

I also get really weird twitching in my muscles. It doesn't bother me but just a very odd side effect.
