My own DHT / Finasteride 0.25mg every other day test
Guys,
I decided to do a quick test with my DHT levels to see if the 0.25mg is effective or not. Probably someone here will criticize this but is the best I can do and I am very happy with the results.
I use to have terrible side effects with 1mg of Finasteride (watery semen, super low libido and erection problems).
I am 38 years old, NW 3V and my crown is almost gone and aggressive receding hairline
Baseline
July 08, 2013 (without taking finasteride for the last 10 months)
DHT: 46 ng/dL (Reference Range 30 - 85)
on July 09, 2013 I started with 0.25mg of Generic Finasteride every other day
August 22, 2013
DHT: 18 ng/dL (Reference Range 30 - 85)
Testosterone, Serum: 641 ng/dL (Reference Range 348-1197)
Free Testosterone (Direct) 14.1 (Reference Range 8.7-25.1)
Sorry no baseline for Testosterone...
Both tests completed at the same time and day (Monday 9am)
I still have some issues with the semen (watery) and I can perform well for the first round but my penis is completely death for the 2nd round even with a super hot girl that I am dating now.
I know each body is different but I have a couple of questions/comments:
- Do you think that my baseline (DHT) is already low to be the main cause of my baldness? I definitively have the genes (both sides) and my pattern is the typical in the crown and receding hairline.
- Do you think that my testosterone are good for a healthy libido and good quality of semen?
I will keep this plan of 0.25mg every other day because obviously drop the DHT level
I don't smoke or drink... I exercise 4 days a week and I eat a lot of fruits and vegetables...
Thanks!

Wow. You're DHT is down 61% from taking 1/8th the recommend dose (1mg). I believe the full 1 mg reduces DHT by 68%.
This is really great info. From experimentation, I experience sides at .50 mg ED but not at .25 ED. Guess I'll stay at .25 and see what happens.

SORRY MY MISTAKE Correct 0.5mg every other day (not 0.25mg)
Sorry guys,
I made a mistake... I was thinking when I used to cut the generic proscar in 4 pieces when I wrote the post... now I am cutting generic propecia in 2 so I am using 0.5mg every other day (not 0.25mg).

Did you carry out the blood test on an ON or OFF day? Some claimed DHT is only low on ON days... Which I dont believe.
-
When I did this test, I used Finsterida 1mg every other day and did a blood test on day off, but I did not have any reduction in DHT.
Then I did another test with 0.5 mg of finasteride daily and worked.
Good luck and post your results later.

I completed both days of testing on day off of Finasteride but I take the half propecia pill at night (the night before the test).

Well thats <12 hours since last fin dose. If you intend to do another blood test, do it in the morning of a day-on. Then you have like 36 hours since last fin dose.
And just to make it clear, I don`t believe your DHT will drastically change from your last test, but it will hopefully show Julio that his results are inacurrate...

Was the blood test performed on an ON or OFF day? Some claimed that happy wheels unlocked DHT levels are only low on ON days... Which I do not accept.

I think the opposition among Walmart and conventional wellbeing food markets will bring issues to light significantly more. My expectation is that somebody will see natural and non-natural foods next to what are yuca fries each other, see that the expense is comparative and decide on natural.
