hi jamesst11,
i had the exact same problem with finasteride destroying my hairline ( i took it for 16 month).
I'm off of the drug but my hairline keeps receding quickly.
I honestly think that either i had a reflex hyperandrogenictity or that the increase in testosterone alone due to propecia was enough to damage my hairline .
The fact is i believe that people like us shouldn't take Dut ( which increase test even more)or anti 5AR orally because our body could potentially react in a negative way ( reflex hyperandrogenicity), and that our best bet is RU which is a topical anti AR (which prevent all androgen from binding including test).
I'm now trying to find a legit RU source and most importantly a good vehicle since my scalp hardly handle topical with high alcool content ( KB vehicle was too harsh for me).
Do you guys know if adenogen can be used as a RU vehicle?
Thanks for your time.

You can't really assume that that's how dutasteride will work, because no one really knows anything about this theory. People just speculate like crazy. I think the smart thing will be to get another blood panel done after a month on dutasteride. I will once again test for testosterone and DHT... If the testosterone level is way up from when I was on fin, then I will probably get off it, or test again in another couple months. If the DHT is drastically lower, then same scenario... No one actually knows that dut will raise your test more than fin. Hypothetically maybe, for sure no. I am going to order some RU if, in a couple months I don't see the hair loss reducing, or if my blood panel is unsatisfactory. The thing is, SOME people have had awesome results on DUT that had bad experiences on finasteride. The assumption being, you're going from a state where, yes you have minimal DHT, but your receptors are upregulated to a state where, you almost completely obliterate the DHT, so the receptors don't mean anything. I personally believe testosterone is a MUCH weaker androgen than DHT. I think the hair loss comes from your body counter acting the drop in DHT by creating more receptors. It's feedback.

I think its pretty safe to say dut is going to raise your T levels more than fin would. If your stopping all T to DHT conversion than there has to be more T since its not getting converted anymore.
