Thank you so much for this video! Easy to watch, friendly and charismatic personality and great outlining of the pros and cons of the drug and the study.

Dude, this is top notch. Your delievery, you dont babble for 30 minutes. Right to the point, short and sweet. You know what the people want to hear. This is how a youtube video should be. And also very transparent of you, to show that the study can have some bias.

Could one alternate between topical and oral finasteride depending on the day? Just thinking if a person cannot for some reason apply the solution on a given day, could they take a pill instead?

i am wondering what is the best vehicle for the topical solution, pg, vg, a mix of those with alcohol, or which one is better. is there a study for that?

Over 50,,,been using topical 0.3% and 6% topical minoxidil. My hair has undergone a tremendous change within 6 months. From a Norwood 3 and getting worse, to a now Norwood 2 and improving. My hair is MUCH thicker, the hairline has improved, and a small bald spot on my crown has filled in. I now get compliments on my hair.

I was on topical for a month to see if it work. I think it was mainly the minoxidil I used as a solvent but now my hairline is really thick. I say if you’re using topical minoxidil as a treatment, why not crush some finasteride pills and pour it into the mix. Now you’re getting minoxidil to regrow and fin will keep the hair there as long as it can. Only been doing 1ml a day with 0.025. Side effects from stopping Oral fin decrease in a few days for me. libido was stronger, my muscles looked way more full and it look as if I had a constant pump, visions became sharper, and also anxiety decrease, and weight loss is way easier to drop and muscles puts on easy. Both oral fin and oral minoxidil both really fucking suck. Is either limp dick or Heart problems. Can’t believe they’re still selling us these ancient products that we had to resort to switching from oral to topical because of the nasty sides. Pyrilutamide looks really promising and the sides are low. Can’t be FDA approved any sooner.

'so I moved to topical finasteride 0.1 percentage with 5 percentage' Be extremely careful with your dosage. The dosage used in the study is 0,25%, but that is quite a bit; I use 0,01% (1-2ml a day). 'My biggest question is does this finasteride and minoxidil effect my height?' You are almost an adult, so I dont think you will grow anymore. You can't shrink from it in any case. 'Any hormonal damage? About testosterone?' Possibly, yes. If you experience side-effects, lower the dosage until you dont experience side effects anymore. Finasteride lowers DHT production, which is hormonal. You can experience erectile dysfunction, pain in scrotum, head ache, etc. I dont think it lowers your testosteron though (it might slightly increase it).

How do you get 0,1

Even if chances are lower with topical finasteride, Post Finasteride Syndrome is still an issue, it doesn’t disprove that there aren’t benefits for hair growth but you are sacrificing your sexual health for a cosmetic benefit and the risks and benefits need to be informed to patients about this. If sexual function is not a big deal to a person, that’s fine, let the person take the hair growth medication, it’s not a guranteed side effect but there’s always a probability that it can happen and because PFS is an unsolved conditions that is currently incurable, we need to press for better informed consent and research for PFS to solve it so everyone can benefit.

Also, there's no link for most of them between finasteride and these sides effects. And these people, apparently, had issues before taking finasteride for most of them, so...

One does not need anything close to the 0.25% used in the study. Of course the drug will go systemic. By using anywhere from 0.01-0.02% topically you can get great results (been using this dose for months). Think about it for a second. By applying the low dose finasteride directly on the scalp, you are by passing the process by which the drug is processed in the body. Of course some men will get sides when half or more of their DHT is blocked. You also need to use the topical all over the scalp in order to halt hair loss.

Where was the part of the study that shows it lowers side effects?

I have used Oral finasteride 1mg daily and also 0,5mg daily, both times experienced horrible side effects such as insomnia, depression and loss of libido. I almost felt suicidal, as soon as I stopped it, it all went away in 5-7 days. Now I am using Topical finasteride 0,25% and experiencing NONE of those side effects. I assume the topical finasteride is absorbed in an insignificant amount into our blood stream to cause heavy side effects.

Hi Andrea. A pertinent question I’ll break it down . Do I think it’s normal? Clearly it isn’t “normal”. Is it safe? The data we have gathered for over 30 years use of Finasteride use suggests that it is. But at the end of the day it comes to down to an individual to make that decision. I merely try and provide data to assist this decision that should be taken with close physician consultation. Hope this helps

0.25% is a ridiculous dose. You are applying 5mg of Finasteride as most people need 2ml thus 0.01% or 0.025% max for Topical Finasteride and you can even use it every other day. So 0.25mg topically EOD will reduce roughly 25% serum DHT. Quite negligible.

Effectiveness wise, topical finasteride can't be compared with oral finasteride, considering the LONG-TERM roadmap of androgenetic alopecia. They may have similar effectiveness during for 1 year, but in the following years topical finasteride will be a trash, therefore is not long-term treatment medication.

Here’s my question with this. With oral finasteride, it assists in preventing further hair loss in the effected areas AND the potentially future effected areas. With topical finasteride, it is applied only to the effected areas. Does that mean that the non-effected areas will still NOT have any finasteride absorption?

For all those wanting to by topical Finasteride now after watching one video, do more research, it hasn't been approved by FDA and there's little to no research on it over long period of time. In addition oral fin prevents future hair loss and slows down hair loss you're experiencing right now. When and if you use topical finasteride you only putting it on affected areas which means the rest of hair that doesnt get topical fin on it will still fall out unlike oral that covers entire scalp. I'd suggest you to use oral finestiride and minoxidil together since both are aproved by FDA as best solution for hair loss and there have been studies on both of them as well. If you're afraid to get side affects which I believe mostly placebo go to your dermatologist and get 0.5 mg and if you don't experience anything after few months increase dosage. Don't just go buy first things yall see 🤡🤣
