    Less than 1 month. So explain that? The pictures aren't the best quality, but it is clear as day that my vertex was damn near hair less on March 29th, and now there's hair today. That's one month buddy. So what you said is false. Same hair cut, both pics in the bathroom under the same light, same angle, same spot.
    Nice results PatientlyWaiting! I look forward to seeing your results in the coming months. Keep us posted.

      I guess that just means you are very lucky. I think ChrisM's comments were generalising but every one is different and every man's body will react differently to medicines. So you are fortunate that it impacts so quickly, others probably won't be so fortunate. But take an average of people like you and people who see results in 1 year and then you have the middle line which is what gains are measured by, usually.

        Rather, I order it from China. I plan to buy about 5 grams of dutasteride powder from a Chinese supplier. I will quickly know from my blood profile, if it is legit. I think that I will need higher dosages than 0.5 mg/day to achieve my goals.

        If you were not satisfied with the results, you can add minoxidil, but it is a life-long commitment.
        Wouldn't trust internet pharmacies but you will trust buying powder from China? Could be Rhino horn or ground up tiger balls. How do you check your blood profile? and you can check your blood profile even if you buy form internet pharmacies to see if it's legit. Of course unless it's much cheaper form China. Would be helpful if you have somewhere you can get this powder form to share with the rest of us..

          I choose suppliers very carefully. It takes several weeks, until I make my final decision. And so far I have never been scammed. Actually, last time, when I ordered some powder from China, it was seized by customs. They did a lab test and the powder contained exactly the stuff that I had ordered (The darker side of this story is that subsequently they destroyed it, I lost 300 USD and had to pay a penalty in addition :P )

          I must laugh, when I see that people order from internet "pharmacies" for outrageous prices - 10-20 times higher than from China. For your information: I just ordered 5 grams of dutasteride powder for 220 USD including shipping. This equals to 0.022 USD for 0.5 mg. In an internet "pharmacy", you can buy it for 0.50-1.00 USD at best. The funniest thing is that even Avodart from my local pharmacy is cheaper than most of these internet "generic dutasterides".

            How do you use the powder then? New to that idea - just wash it down like? but then like you say, the risk can be great ordering 'white powder' from abroad. And if you take into account the 300 + penalty you lost that's 520 USD for 5 grams..
            Problem also with local pharmacies is needing a prescription.

              It was a different stuff, not dutasteride. I was too bold (not bald ) I ordered 100 grams at once, which was stupid. The customs suspected that it was narcotics

              Before, I had no problems with 10-50 grams of any powder. But if I am on some "black list" now, then they will check all my parcels. Therefore, I am really thrilled, if the dutasteride goes through.

              I reckon with that I will either mix it in alcohol or that I will make 1 mg capsules. Of course, regular blood tests in 3-4 weeks' intervals will be necessary to verify, if it is legit. Currently I take 0.375 mg dut/day + 1.25 mg fin/day. I plan to go up to 1 mg dut/day and quit fin completely.

              The Chinese company has been on the internet market for 4+ years and it is verified by the staff of Alibaba.com. The length of the stay on the market is the most important thing, if you want to judge their credibility.

                Ok, interesting. That means sinking some spirit (vodka?) each time though - not so good on your liver long term How the hell you gonna have blood tests each month?

                  How is this unless insurance will cover it? All the pharms around here seem to carry it for around $400 (3 month supply)
                  I am in USA BTW.

                    I am from Europe. I don't understand it, but the usual price for 90 capsules in a pharmacy is ca. 100 USD. I found a certain pharmacy that sells it for 46 USD. I don't know, why they have it so cheap. I have it on prescription, but still, it seems that normally I would have to pay the whole 100 USD.

                    P.S.: It seems that I will have more dutasteride than I need. The Chinese company sent me 10 grams instead of 5 grams "by mistake". Now I have a problem, because I won't use such an amount. I would have to pay additional money, or send it back to China.

                    But if it goes through customs, I could sell it to someone here, who is from EU. So if you are interested, you can send me a private message. But I will do blood tests at first to check, if it is legit.

                      The method of use actually worries me. I just found a discussion on some internet forum, where some man failed to fully dissolve 500 mg dutasteride in 100 ml vodka (40% ethanol). This is 5 mg on 1 ml vodka (or 12,5 mg on 1 ml of ethanol in it). At the same time, 44 mg dutasteride should dissolve in 1 ml of ethanol.

                      I would like to mix only 0.5-1 mg per 1 ml. I like accuracy of dosing I would prefer capsules, but if it fails, then I will probably have to buy pure ethanol.

                      But all these speculations are still premature. 10 grams of powder won't escape Roentgen rays, and it will depend on customs, if they let it go.

                          Yes. Genuine Avodart. It is the only 5-AR blocker that is doing something for me. Fin was ridiculous.
