I just... I'm scared to inhibit my 5ar2 anymore ._. I still think I've got mild sides lingering from the first time (these could be in my head, but they just don't feel it).
It just feels like I'm playing with fire - perhaps my body is still working on recovering from the first time, I don't want to go doing it again! I actually vowed last time when I chucked my packets of finasteride that I would rather lose my hair than ever take the stuff again >.< I just value my.. manhood more xD
I guess that's one reason I am for the forwarding and testing of equol. I also love the idea that people could take equol (if it worked) without as much caution, and at younger ages without as much concern. One could also COMBINE finasteride with equol, to in theory combat DHT at 2 different levels internally.
It's not like I never even consider finasteride anymore but... I get more tempted now to go the topical path instead if s-equol is ruled out.
