Its good to compare it to androgen induced cancer. Like prostate cancer.
No, it isn't and if you think that then you have lost all perspective. What about rampant acne and dermatitis and a whole host of other disfiguring things not linked to just being an adult male.

Just because they are both caused by androgens does not make them in any way comparable.

How long were you on Finasteride only?
4 months. At 3 months, I found that my AA was progressing rapidly, and Finasteride couldn't even slow it down. At first I wanted to add Duta, but realized that this would not help me either. I remembered the wise words of Ikarus: "If you go bald before 20, you don't even have to bother with 5AP blockers."

I have had tears in my retina since I was 13 years old, I have undergone many operations and have a risk of going blind in the future. And you know what? Baldness is much worse and worries me much more, because with a weak retina, you can live a long time, preserving your vision, you can somehow control it
In my opinion, baldness is one of the worst things, besides fatal diseases. This is something on a par with disability, because it disfigures you, and ugliness can affect your whole life: work, self-esteem, position in society, relationships - it affects everything.

That is truth, but we have to assume that they were balding, which there was no indication of. I agree with you that you should treat it as fast as you notice, but I myself, couldn't possibly see any balding in their case.
Baldness at the initial stage only leads to a deterioration in the quality of the hair. In photographs it is almost impossible to notice, it can only be noticed by feeling the hair with your hands. Here is my hair when I was just starting to go bald. I indicated with an arrow that my hair became thinner on the hairline. Everyone laughed at me and said that I had not baldness, but schizophrenia. But a few months after this photo it began to progress further.

I experienced the same. Nobody believed me a year ago, when I was trying to explain that I was balding and shedding...

And now I came to this point;


You just shouldn't rely on others opinion, take action as soon as you can.
Well, its hard to take hormonal-changing medications in the age of 15/16.

Dosage? Regime?
I used Flutamide + Finasteride in the form of transdermal gel on the scalp, manipulated it, I don't remember the dosage now.
I thought that a controlled dosage at a specific location would avoid systemic sides.


But what happened ?

Some considerations: I used it for 4 months, my skin improved insanely insane, real regrowth in the frontal region I am a nw1 on the way to the nw2 parked now, some users here have seen my photos I don't want to share publicly here.

I also felt good about myself, I don't know how to explain, perhaps due to the fact that FLUT greatly increases the serum levels of Testosterone and increasing E2 via aromatase too .

But very strong sexual sides OF insanely strong, I had an unprecedented erectile dysfunction I didn't know how to keep erect for anything, I thought it would pass but it didn't, while I used flutamide my penis didn't work, I was forced to stop, go out with a girl for a party and while I kissed her at the party my friend down there didn't go up for anything, for nothing, I didn't take her home to have sex because it wasn't working, it was the last straw for me.

In my opinion bicalutamide much safer, less hepatotoxic, maintains fertility, without sexual sides, without depressive symptoms, what worries me about bicalutamide is only the elevated levels of Testosterone in the long term, 5 years, 10 years , but with e2 seems it is very toxic for testicles very very , estradiol in high serum levels f*** your balls forever .

I fear that bicalatamide will make your prostate highly sensitive to testosterone when you remove the medication from your therapeutic regimen, it will greatly increase the risk of prostate hyperplasia, it will be almost certain, so bicalutamide is forever think about it, however finasteride is forever also, so just choose your drug and take your risks.

I don't care much about feminization, and seem softer and younger, I like female beauty and I'm a cis man, but erectile dysfunction in my opinion is the worst side effect, I can take gyno but I can't stand killing my friend down there

This is strange. It seems to me that on Bicalutamide my libido is slightly higher than on Finasteride alone. There are no problems with an erection at all

Bica is a new generation non-steroidal aa, it is very clean, it protects your penile function, in most cases at least, flutamide is old, full of side effects but well absorbed in the skin because this i tried a little but is not cool

Sorry to ask, I forgot, your therapeutic regimen is

50mg bicalutamide + 1mg finasteride right?

Yes. I am afraid that the dose of Bicalutamide is too low and I need 75 or 100. But I decided to test a small dose and then switch to large doses if 50mg does not have the desired effect

I don't remember where I saw a relationship between bicalutamide dosages and T and E2 levels, do you have this information there?

I found some pictures @Ein just of the result that he obtained not being able to see his old hairline, but that hairline he did not make sense, he shouldn't have frontal recession, is it hard to say does anyone have old photos of him?
