I Have Never Took A Hair Loss Medication Before, Should I Go To finasteride First Or Jump Straight Into dutasteride?

Pretty much what's on the title, are the possible more sides worth it in order to have potential regrowth or to more effectively stop further hair loss? Or there’s not a lot of difference between the sides of both of them? Would like to know your advice, thanks.

I regret not taking dutasteride at first, instead i used finasteride for nearly a year and my hair had become worse during that time. It's up to you, maybe a short stint on finasteride to see how you react in terms of side effects then taking the plunge into dutasteride. The side effects i got from dutasteride were exactly the same as finasteride, slightly lower libido, less semen volume, they weren't any worse. No mental sides.

This is very solid advice, I'll probably do this. I was mostly worried about sides but I have heard more than once that the sides in both are not very different. Mental sides are the ones I fear the least but some minor physical sides is not something I'm not willing to endure.
