    But at that dose we do not know the long term affects although i did not get any sides some will.
    It is strange as its said that taking above 1mg a day finasteride is no better i wonder though.
    I also wonder if topical dutasteride at 2.5mgs a day or every other day would save any side affects and work but it would work out expensive as i did buy some generic dutas they were redish colour caps but i opened one to see if theres a clear liquid as in the gen avodart and it was not clear it was a creamy substance.

    doke, to me it looks like your suffering from reflex hyperandorgencity

    how long have you been taking it?

      hi gutted i do not take dutas anymore as it did not work for me over two years even at 2.5mgs a day and finasteride im not really sure although i take it now every other day at 2.5mgs and yes i get this oily face start over the day and thats at 54 years old i thought acne was for young people?
      I try tretinoin or retina a but it does make the skin too dry then.

          Question for GUTTED

          Gutted, I’m putting together a supplement protocol that sounds similar to work that you’ve done. I’d love to collaborate with you and, once it’s baked, share with the group. I’m looking at this using botanicals and nutraceuticals, addressing PGD2 inhibition (cox & other methods), Th3 balancing, 5-AR modification, mast cell blocking and vasodilation.
          Email to palyndromes at gmail.


          (Also, a question for anyone - is there a breakdown of all of these acronyms anyplace? H&S, RU, duta, minox. Some are obvious, but some are pretty obscure...)

                and how is dut and the rest of the stuff your using working out?

                you know, the best way to add treatments is to evaluate every 3/6 months whether its doing its job or not and then drop and re-add new treatments, as you can assume doing this is a very long process, hence (why some would say, forums and) clinical trials are required to speed up this process in our favour. But then again forums are slightley more bias and clinical trials are a more reilable indicator since most people on forums tend to be on a myriad of treatments.

                        ok im convinced trx2 and msm (plus vitamin c) is a potent combo, enough to stop further loss and even possibly regrow some hair over time.

                        Androgen depravation/blocking negates the beneficial effects of trx2/msm/vit c. So its pretty much useless taking this combo with fin/dut, and will appear to the user as not working.

                        As for results you may be aware that i introduced some new supps, what i can say is shedding picked up again(due to RH) until i dropped them a few weeks back. Shedding is back down to normal levels.

                        The dose of msm i recommend is 9grams per day along with adequate vit c.

                        I will setup a new thread to dscuss this combo. Im not quite sure why this works but have some thoeries and will post some articles in the thread.

                          Gutted: Im also talking trx2 + msm + eating alot of fruits containing vit C. I started this as I stopped finasteride I haven't lost much hair since then (1,5 years ago) so Im really intressted in hearing your theories on why this works.

                          My dose of msm is lower than yours. How did you decide to take 9g per dag?

                            theres no basis, i seem to find 6grams is enough but i prefer 9 grams most importantly with vit c.

                            I will post details in a new thread tomorow.

                                Yo, brethren, I still live, I'm still hairy.

                                My hairloss remains completely stopped, with very minimal shedding (10 or so hairs which I consider normal) after washing my hair. Not very much in the way of regrowth and some thickening of pre-existing hair.

                                All in all, I'd say I'm maintaining pretty well. No miracle-temples growing back or anything like that, but at least now I'm a good and steady NW3, without the hellish anguish of losing fistfuls of hair every day and knowing you're headed for chrome-domedom.

                                If it holds like this 'till that PGD2 stuff comes out of the pipeline, I'm good!
