just wondering cas if my sides continue im dropping it and wondering what the best option might be...

thanks

sammo...

do i understand correctly to assume without finasteride... the testosterone will completely affect my hair again but with a topical ill be growing hair so it doesnt matter? ill be losing and gaining? but there will be constant shedding... where as using finasteride is like attacking the problem, and stopping the hairloss...

???

Its the DHT...T will probabily affect your hair as well, but DHT causes 30x more damage.

If you really can't take finasteride, consider using a topical dht blocker like spironolactone and then add minoxidil and a copper peptide.
