    Default DIY Finasteride and Dutasteride Spray - DMSO and PG and Water

    Hi Guys

    So I've created my own DIY mix, can you let me know what you think about ratios

    To provide 60ML sprayable solution from old Regaine bottle ( Regaine removed )

    DMSO 10%
    Monopropylene Glycol ( PG ) 20%
    Distilled Water 70%
    Dutasteride 0.1%
    Finasteride 0.1%

    Interestingly I've never been able to dissolve Dutasteride powder before it always stayed as small particles but the DMSO does a great job of this so for the first time it's dissolved a 100% into a DIY mix, the PG adds a really nice topical solution that sits on the skin for a good 10 mins before slowly evaporating or being absorbed into the skin probably because of the DMSO.

    Anyway let me know what you think, i'm amazed by the properties of DMSO and it's ability to transfer almost anything through the skin and was originally planning on using 100% DMSO until I tried it and holy moly that stung, so I have reduced this to a much safer ratio of 10% which seems to be much kinder to my skin and when reading a few scientific papers didn't harm cells at this concentration.

    Anyway not sure if anyone still comments on this forum, I've posted messages before and not seen a single reply whee discussing this sort of topic.

    Seems a shame as a DIY mix is so much cheaper and apart from the Dut and Fin is all available on Amazon

    Thanks but why would I pay when I can make it for a fraction of the cost ? The DMSO is a pretty incredible substance if you read up about it ( also it can dissolve the dutasteride ) and allow it to absorbed into the skin better then almost any other substance in existence.

    I would not actually experiment with homemade remedies because it is very easy to get it wrong in dosage, concentration, etc.
