Fair enough…but based on the pics you provided at the start of this thread it looks like your hair is very healthy and strong.

People in this forum are insane I swear. Every time I click on one of these threads, it's some NW1/NW2 who has no real sign of detectable recession or thinning asking for advice because he is "losing" his hair and everyone in the replies is telling him to get on 20mg of f*****g dutasteride and oral minoxidil as if he is on the verge of being a NW5 if he doesn't nuke his entire system. Get a grip.

It's all the soy consumption and low T in today's society.

I got back on topical dutasteride with needling and can definately say scalp feels good no tingling or slight itch anymore.
What about topical dutasteride once a week then ru the rest of the week for further protection?

Thats up to you but ru needs to be applied twice daily and im not up for that makes hair look white and crappy. Also it actually thinned my hair instead of helping it, i used that poison 5 years ago and wont touch it again. Its also expensive.

I had decent results with it, mostly maintenance, but yeah it’s a hassle because the half life is so short. Expensive too.

I thought you had to apply it once a day.. Makes me hesitant now.

Just increase your oral minoxidill to 12mg or so and apply dutasteride with stamping weekly.
What do you think about this topical dutasteride? Is it strong enough or I need higher concentration? It cost 72.95€ per 100 ml shipping costs included. It also has 0.05% latanoprost.

Sounds good.

My problem is not oral minoxidil since I'm a good responder even with 2.5 mg. I have to get rid of androgens. About topical dutasteride I could use more than once a week since it contains 100ml and it would last too much to the point it could maybe expirate?

There are higher concentration, do you need a higher would be needed or 0.1% is ok?

Ye this is why i make my own topical dutasteride now by emptying my duta caps. That dutasteride u want to buy expire after 3 months or so i heard. 0.1% is more than enough. Its 1mg per ml.

That is why I wouldn't mind to use more than once a week. The only problem is that you cant micronedling more than once a week with 1-1.5mm.. I think your method is way cheaper, cause you use 8 pills every month if you want a 0.1% concentration for like 20€ for 30 pills(at least in my country) and the Ethanol and PG which are cheap.

I got a bottle of dutasteride also mixed with azeliac acid from regrowth labs, i Will use that on wednesdays and make my own topical with my duta pills on sundays. But yes only needling on sundays. It may not even penetrate at all without needling or at least not good enough but whatever. Also gonna add ketoconazole shampoo with other stuff added into it every other day.

If it doesn't penetrate, the wednesday dose will be money wasted, right?
