Propecia is finasteride. Dutasteride (goes under the brand name of Avodart) is theoretically supposed to work even better because it is an inhibitor of both Type I and Type II. However, I think that the pesky side effects are grossly understated.Quote from Bigpipn:
...As far as the test -> dht conversion, just get a 5-alpha reductase inhibitor. (Propecia)
Quote from enforcer99:
testosterone converts to DHT,thats where dht comes from. baldness is ALL GENETIC. as for Testosterone replacement,injections work best in my opinion. anti estrogens work as well but for long tern i have issues with them. mainly negative affects on lipid profile.
Not exactly. The hair in the donor areas may be less predisposed, but, depending on the severity of the subject's MPB, it will likely thin during his lifetime. This, in turn, will thin the grafts in the recipient areas.Quote from I, Deviant:
...Which is why if you get a hair transplant you will not lose the transplanted hair no matter juice you do, because the hair is from the back of your head and does contain the same DHT receptors that hair on other areas of your head contain.
Quote from enforcer99:
anti estrogens(especially clomid) have a direct effect on the hypothalamus and therefore raises T levels. there have been concerned with vision problems and use of clomid and nolvadex. arimadex works well but careful not to lower estrogen too much,its a very important hormone.
