    Hey thanks for the reply dude! I got my prescription but I've never tried fin before. Just horrified with what I've read on oral fin. Dr. Hasson told me he has about 50 patients on topical fin with good results and these people had sides on oral but no sides on topical.

    Gonna pick it up soon!
    hows it going for you man?

    I cant see why the same chemical used topically would not go systemic just as if you used orally. The thing that makes CB so promising is that the chemical itself turns into a harmless naturally occurring chemical once it hits the blood stream at least in theory so far they think so. We need something that works at the receptor level or some other approach than just lowering all DHT.
    Some will certainly go systemic, but not all of it. The idea behind topical fin is to minimize this, not to avoid it completely.

    There is 5ar in the scalp, so there may be a benefit of inhibiting 5ar locally as compared to the entire bloodstream.

    You should shoot them an email and ask, but I don't believe so.

    Yeah, I stopped believing in the "topical doesn't go systemic" lie when I've gotten systemtic sides from 5% minoxidil (foam and liquid), 1% topical fin, and 2% Ru lol.

    Trust me guys, whatever you put on your head is going to get absorbed through and into your bloodstream. The effects will be less than if you orally ingested but that's about it.

    If you're someone who's been having sides from oral fin, is it more likely that you wouldn't get sides from a topical? From everything I've seen, it always goes systemic.

    What do you think of this? Why hasn't this been more widespread? I guess it's not that effective.
    No it has to be their pharmacy and you can order it from their pharmacy once you get the prescription. It's not mainstream because you have to go there and get it. It definitely works though.
