Safest Antiandrogen For Your Dick - Bicalutamide

The only reason I’m posting more now on this thread is so you don’t cause harm to anyone else
I would also recommend not bringing up false information about previous posts. You’ve continued to twist things around to make it seem you have some kind of upper hand.
Please also don’t forget when I threw myself out there and said I’d leave the forum by challenging you to back up a claim. You remained silent. I haven’t forgotten that.

Twisting what? I had asked you to provide sufficient proof that dutasteride would work in similar situations to mine, and then you showed people who: used minoxidil, were older, had a significantly better baseline than myself. Factually, dutasteride does not have the ability to combat such cases of hair loss.
I misquoted what you said; I inferred that you said that chemical/surgical castration aren't a cure for hair loss. That is insignificant since that's a misquote, in which I could not be bothered to remember what you said. You are making a typical strawman argument by mentioning my misquote. On the other hand, you attempted to create a point which could make others believe that dutasteride will work for them if they are in a similar situation to mine; that's legitimate false information.

Wikipedia states these side effects for men https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bicalutamide#Side_effects
Confirms some of these side effects
https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=_4SwO2dHcAIC&pg=PA1297&redir_esc=y#v=onepage&q&f=false
- breast changes
- physical feminization and demasculinization in general
- including reduced body hair growth
- decreased muscle mass and strength
- feminine changes in fat mass and distribution
- reduced penile length,
- decreased semen/ejaculate volume
Confirms some of these side effects
https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=_4SwO2dHcAIC&pg=PA1297&redir_esc=y#v=onepage&q&f=false
show me one study that proves any of these:
- decreased muscle mass and strength
- feminine changes in fat mass and distribution
- reduced penile length,
- decreased semen/ejaculate volume
those are side effects of androgen deprivation therapy: where a gnrh agonist, castration, an antiandrogen NSAA, an antigoanditropen, and a CYP17 inhibitor are required, next time look at the studies you quote.
none of those sides would be apparent in those who use bicalutamide mono therapy except the 1st and 3rd one.
Penile shrinkage would make no sense, since bicalutamide as mono-therapy had minimal effect on nocturnal erections. Feminine changes in fat mass and distribution wouldn’t make sense either, since feminisation is seen at doses of 150mg/day which is significantly higher than the dose needed to treat hair loss.
The only applicable side effects are gynecomastia, physical feminisation/demasculinisation and decreased body hair growth. I would emphasise that these are the most common, and almost certain, side effects.
whats wrong with decreased body hair or a neotenous face?

Is anyone taking Bicalutamide on its own without Finasteride or Dutasteride?

The first side effect on bica will be a strong drop in libido and very weak erections as per study numbers
A few guys used bica over the years on these forums and all had to stop after a few weeks due to this
Look up Hemingway he tried as well

"Another large study reported a rate of impotence of only 9.3% with bicalutamide relative to 6.5% for standard care (the controls), a rate of decreased libido of only 3.6% with bicalutamide relative to 1.2% for standard care, and a rate of 9.2% with bicalutamide for hot flashes relative to 5.4% for standard care.[126] One other study reported decreased libido, impotence, and hot flashes in only 3.8%, 16.9%, and 3.1% of bicalutamide-treated patients, respectively, relative to 1.3%, 7.1%, and 3.6% for placebo."
<10% of sexual issues doesn't sound like a high rate to me personally, I'm not ED prone though
