Thinking of taking finasteride or dutasteride-- Worried about sides

[zeroalpha]

So I've been lurking around the forums lately but my hairloss seems to be progressing with time.

I'm thinking should I take dutasteride or finasteride but I'm worried about the sides. I've been putting it off because of that. I hear dutasteride has less sexual side effects. I also don't want to be the 1 in 2000 men that get the irreversible sides. We only need hair for the purpose of getting sex, I'm not here to impress other men . Losing my libido defeats the purpose.

Is there a link to the clinical studies with this drug? And which drug would be the best for the least sides-- or is there any difference since they both do the same thing?

How much/long do the dosages of dutasteride cost/last? Is it less or more expensive than finasteride?

Also I hear olive oil helps block DHT-- anybody try it yet?

Thanks to any who answer my questions!

If your talking about being worried about side effects why even mention dutasteride its not even approved for hair loss. Propecia is what you should use and you can try many other things for hair loss such as saw palmetto, green tea, stinging nettle, flax seeds, or olive oil. These things will leave you with less hair while your trying them and no side effects.

did you know that the nocebo effect is very prominent for those using 5ar inhibition therapies?

those who are aware of the existence of the sides from finasteride and dutasteride experience worse side effects, in a manner that cant be attributed to the pharamcology of the drug itself. this means your mind is intensifying the effect.

Olive oil doesn't help block DHT.
