7.5mg isn't a heroic dose but it's not a trivial one either. I wouldn't stay on it for the long term.
OM regrew my temples but I still had whispy coverage, obviously it might not work to the same extent if the area is completely barren

at that point just let it go bro. be free
There is one problem. I had a hair transplant done 2 years ago. So I have transplanted temples/hairline + FUE scars, so even when I shave it, it looks completly unnatural and bad.. :/
Damn, knows he’s killing his heart but takes it anyway lol
“Dutty skin sides” said every girl ever. Good luck. Try upping the dose.

Save up for a transplant that will make you last forever. Especially at Norwood 2.5.

Try 5mg OM twice daily and avodart daily. If that doesn't slow things down the next 6 months then add a topical antiandrogen. You can also needle.

Do you really think you will regrowth hair on the death zone ?! lol . You will not go from a norwood 2.5 to a norwood 2 or 1 . You can just stop your receding hairline and get better hair where you already have it .

I enjoyed substantial reduce in shedding from month 1 to 3 on 10mg oral daily , at about 3.5 months I noticed shedding starting to increase. Now 4 months in. It is summer here now & I am sweating constantly so I'm not sure if this is contributing to excess shedding

My guess: This is a guy with mature, genetic widow peaks and perfect hair otherwise, but wants to grow a young justin bieber hairline which is pretty much impossible.
Your dutasteride is not doing anything. What you need is micro needling and minoxidil.

Well I would say dutasteride daily and oral minoxidil 5mg twice daily is about as aggressive as you can get for a straight male. Other than that there is RU. Anything more powerful than those treatments will be in the HRT realm.

what topical anti androgens would you recommend

Assuming all these other drugs aren't enough, RU58841 is the main option. Other than that you could try concocting a topical bicalutamide solution.
Hopefully pyrilutamide doesn't go too systemic and we can have access to that soon.

Youre pretty informative and I like that.
arent there anti androgen shampoos like regenix or nizoral that perform generally the same function as RU?

Nizoral contains ketoconazole, which is an antiandrogen. It is similar, but it is weaker and is poorly absorbed. It's still helpful but it's not a replacement for something like RU.
