    Default Want to block some DHT. Fin or RU?

    So after 6 years using Minoxidil 5% twice daily (with fairly nice results), time to move on to some DHT blocker. My thinning and receding is progressing so I am about to decide to go for an HT. And in order to save whats left of my hair, I'm considering 2 options:
    1. Fin
    2. Ru58841

    What do you think?

    I think Fin is far above everything else in terms of proof it works and safety. It has 5 and 10 year studies and about 30 years of real world use for prostate and hair. RU has a few small animal studies maybe one small human study before it was scrapped. What is there to compare? Fin wins by a landslide. If Fin fails you can debate adding experimental like RU
