A DHT Level of 9 pg/ml is extremely low. Your natural levels would be around 90 ml/pg. Are you sure about 9 pg/ml?

Ref range is 25-75 ng/dl. I got a print out of my first test when I went to get it tested for the second time this week. Mine was 7 ng/dl the first time.

New dht test came back as <5 ng/dl. Good to know the shed is just a secondary shed from minoxidil. Rock on, dutasteride. Rock on.

Incredible results. Just a quick one, with your hair longer now how do you still manage to apply the minoxidil to the scalp? Are there any techniques you can share or are you just taking your time with the dropper? Do you rub in or allow to dry?

Cheers

Why are you giving so much credit to dutasteride? You stayed on dutasteride and quit minoxidil and your regrowth shed. It came back very well after adding minoxidil back in so I think minoxidil deserves a lot of credit in your case.

Hey BlueMoon

Just to re-iterate the post above me,

Where do you get your Dutasteride? Is it a US-based generic or Indian-based?

How is your hair now???/
Is it better than pre restarting????
Still shedding a bit. Shouldn't take long to recover.

I push the dropper along my scalp while squeezing the rubber bulb.

I got it from a group buy on ********. More than a lifetime supply for like $200. 99.8% purity.

Density is still down due to the shedding, but most of what is growing back is terminal, hence the appearance of increased density. I suppose what's shedding now will grow back terminal? Only time will tell.

Even the same thing happened to me when I first used minoxidil but not everything returned.
But one good thing is that most of the places where I'm applying minoxidil now is showing good regrowth.

Hi , I'm at the 4.5 month mark.....2nd shed had started about a month ago after that density is down....But one good thing is I have a hair line of completely new hair...Though they are small & thin it looks way better than having no hair at the temples....I hope after the 2nd shed is over the hair comes back thick & big...
I'll post some pics.....Soon...& Keep u all updated

Have shed a ton of hair this past week. Lost Atleast 1500 hair in just one week. Very bad 2nd shed....Has anyone experienced the same.? My scalp is clearly visible from front now....my temples have no terminal hairs left....A proper hairline of vellus baby hair has shown up recently....I don't know...some place is showing regrowth while....I'm shedding hair like hell.
Bluemoon1212 has your hair density increased after the second shedding phase?

So these are the pics that I have taken recently...Some today & first two were taken before 3 days....I have a vellus hair hairline right now..My temples have no terminal hairs left...All the hair there is now vellus...density after the second shed has decreased a lot....Might have lost 4-5000 hairs in this whole month....Has anyone experienced same thing & does the hair come up thick & strong again...I'm really worried now....& Yes my regime is 1.25 ml 5℅ minoxidil once each day... Increased it from 1 ml to 1.25 ml just before a month.
