    hi jc yes my gp has me on it due to my age and waterworks problems although i did have to buy it before and have used up to 2.5mgs in the past but due to cost had to go back to 0.5mg which still lowers dht more than finasteride and also as you may know it is a type one and two blocker.

      Thanks doke, I'm having to get up at night to pee and it's peeing me off, it sure that'll qualify my for the same treatment, have to see what he says.

      Do you have any sides from it? It's a potent drug dude. Think I'd be scared to take it if he prescribes it.

        Jeez sorry for typos in last reply, too late to correct. Anyway it should have said - not sure if my issues will qualify me for that treatment *

          hi jc i have been on it quite a while and no side effects and just had a psa test with my gp and all is normal which is good to know i do notice drier skin on scalp and face which has helped with my acne.
          I was scared of taking finasteride years ago and dutas but touch wood im lucky to have had none although you would need to ask your gp if you wanted to start a family.
          My gp wanted me to use flowmax with dutas but that did give me side effects big time a very painful jaw and tooth ache which can be an effect of flowmax so he told me just to use avodart.
          I did buy some avodart called dutas a few years ago on an online pharmacy with no prescription and im sure it was a fake drug as i opened one and it was a grey cream and avodart is a liquid in a capsule.
          There was talk on another forum of a guy using one 0.5mg cap a day mixed in a small amount of aloe vera pure gel and was said it turned white when mixed and applied as a topical he got his hair back again but im not sure if its any better than oral i cannot remember if he used minox as well.
          There is a company selling a topical finasteride and dutasteride which i was going to try it is a 60ml bottle of liquid dutas 0.5mg per ml and its about $55 so not too expensive.

              I posted a post this morning but wasnt posted!!! Anyways, my question to Hellouser, you have made a 6 day batch of CB at 1ml per application and around 24mg of CB per 1ml. So that means 2.4%? Why did you choose this percentage particularly?

              Also some members added 0.6g to a 60ml bottle in advance which 60 days supply! Is it fine or the efficiency may get less with time? What is the maximum number of days we can do without losing CB efficiency?

              I once read that RU should not be pre mixed 14 days before! How about CB? Thanks Hellouser. I appreciate you contribution in this Hair Loss Community.

                Doke - thanks for the reply, I'll get shouted at for hijacking this thread before long. Thanks for sharing tho mate, and good luck with the treatment.

                Ps do you feel the avodart has helped with your hair?

                  I kind of got careless with how much I weighed on my scale, it was too much and by that point I was like 'meh'. Also, my Testors bottle can only hold about 7ml and I didn't want to over do it. So I decided on 6. Plus, I wanted to see if the extra concentration would be beneficial (so far, I can't really say it is).

                  I know others are planning on using 50mg/1ml.. 5% of CB should be pretty damn effective. Cosmo apparently may suggest twice daily applications. Thats a bit unsettling.

                  Also some members added 0.6g to a 60ml bottle in advance which 60 days supply! Is it fine or the efficiency may get less with time? What is the maximum number of days we can do without losing CB efficiency?

                  I dont know who said that, but... I'm fairly certain its shelf life should be at least 14 days. In any case, I'm only making 6 days batches, well under the 14 day suggestion.

                    Where did you hear that? I really hope not. I would do that for my hair, but it would suck.

                    I know there a possible side effects and long-term-risks of fin, but I`m feeling great and its so damn easy to take a pill twice weekly, I would hate to apply something twice daily.

                      Must be nice, I take fin every day and it's stopped doing anything over the past 5 years.

                      HELL, what is your CB vehicle right now?? I'm not sure what to mix..I have PG and Everclear for RU...

                        Wow, a 5% CB solution? That's really expensive. You'll blow through that shit in no time.

                          JC i think thak dutasteride is the one that keeps my hair and at 56 its not too bad but if i had started when i was about 30 i think i would in conjuntion with the minox we have available today had even kept all my hair,but the answer is yes to dutas and i think its even better than any of the ru and other experiemental stuff at this time the thing you have to look at is the trials with the twins one on nothing the other on avodart and it was amazing results the only thing i would say is nothing we have at this time is a miracle and with finasteride and avodart its still a very slow process of recovery and may take more than a year if your mpb is advanced but some do get results in six months or less when combined with minoxidil as said im using lipogaine and x5 hair laser seeing very fine regrowth in bald frontal areas but slow progress.

                            Thanks doke, I'm 44,not sure if I'm too 'young' to be having prostate issues, but, I'm definitely having night time awakenings due to a full bloody bladder two or three times thru the night.

                            I've seen the twins blog, quite amazing. I'll see what the quack says mate..

                              ask to have a pee pressure test its not torture you just pee into a bucket that tests your flow and if you also dribble after peeing a lot then you could ask to have dutas.
