Cheers legend....real talk and real information.
Thank you very much for all the great material you are creating and sharing. I wonder if you have any experiences from the company Hairguard´s product "Growband" (a "fully automated scalp massager that boosts blood flow throughout the scalp")? Does it work?
Thanks for this and previous video which give me confidence to start my journey. I have no problems at all with this medication and it works.
It's because you have become disconnected that's why you feel you have no problems

How's that for feeling confident in your journey? It's not a matter of IF it's a matter of WHEN, it happens. Your journey will have MUCH LESS CONFIDENCE I can absolutely guarantee you this. Best to you
@@Belikewater01 Just go back to your mental health clinic.
That's all. Why you just can't write it in one sentence?
Can you do a video on topical minoxidil non responders and if oral minoxidil is a better option for them and the science behind it.
Hi Dr i live in country where the 1mg option is not available , only proscar 5mg finasteride is available here , so i would like to know if the proscar consistency is the same as propecia just in a bigger dose and should i cut 5mg tablets? thank u for your answer
hi doc i have a question about finasteride and the beliefs of causing high degrees of prostate cancer/ causing high threat types of prostate cancer very curious what you have found on this
What about dosing for oral minoxidil? If taking 2.5mg pills, would I want to take 1 per day, or would 3 days a week work like it does with finasteride?
Could you talk about the new “CosmeRNA”? It’s available from May, what do you think about it?
Please add switching to Dutasteride to this, as many people find finasteride doesn't work well enough and need to upgrade to Dutasteride.
Plz make one on sebrohic dermititus
I can get the 5 mg. finasteride for free from insurance. Would it be a similar dosage to take one 5 mg tablet once every 2 weeks, or cut them in half, and take 2.5 mg. once per week?
Have tried this and as much as I respect these two great doctors my regrowth was way better when switched to 1mg a day after 6 months 😊
How is it going now? How long have you been on Fin. I just started this week 1mg/day. 😊
@@arsalmash2812 two years. Hair loss still stable and some thickening of thinning areas 😊
Yeah even adding dutasteride is what made the difference now I'm on dutasteride Finnastride alternative days
@@hadhad129 nice one hope that continues for you 😊 had a hair transplant in 2021 so jumped on it soon after that.
@wam8290 had to add minoxidil top to see enough difference my hair is chest height but I see LOTS of short hairs shedding still 1 inch. No Transplant but I was like NW3V almost diffuse hoping I'll maybe get solid NW2 or 1.5 then fill in a minor Transplant in a few years
Why the protocollo it's 1 mg per day yet ?
Thank you so much for this video. I was wondering if you could maybe tell me what the best dosage is for topical finasteride? I got side effects from oral finasteride and I still get some sides from topical. The most I can tolerate is once a week. Is that fine to suppress DHT?
what kind of side effects did you get
if you have side effects just go to the gym
@@youssefzaki6865why ?
A dutasteride version would be really appreciated :)
that would be 1.5 mlg per week since dutastride is way more potent
@@a..m9459 are you sure about taking dutasteride 0.5mg 3 times per week is potent to block dht and regrow hair?

Hello sir, i found you very rational and i thing you would surely reply rationaly , my question is does finasteride cause any type of cancer or it may cause our cells to function abnormally and v may develope cancer?? Does this drug contain any possible carcinogens in it ?? Looking forward to ur response ❤
Does the same apply for using 2.5 mg monday wednesday friday as opposed to cutting 5mg into quarters and taking 1.25 every day?
Anything more than 1mg is a waste.
At what Time of the day should we take the pill or is it irrelevant?
I would like to know about herbal remedies that increase testosterone, such as maca and tribulus. Could they be used to combat the side effects of finasteride/dutasteride without increasing hair loss?
I am trying with saw palmetto and can say that all good so far.
I always have heard the 5mg tablets called Proscar. However, the one I was prescribed is called Camber. Is this different? Does anyone else take Camber?

KEK, I'm taking 2.5mg Dutasteride at the age of 20, seeing great results, no sides. :)
How often per week?
I'm simple words -
Either u can take
0.5mg daily
Or
1 mg alternate days
Can we use the same dosage for topical Finesteride. Like 0.5ml of 0.1% Finesteride per day?

Not so sure you can skip a day i tried that, I was taking 2 1/2mg every other day because my pills were 5mg cutting them in half and then after 3 months my hair started to fall out
Question: I have about half my hair...as about 1/2 inch long strands...due to it had stopped growing...before I started taking finasteride.. Since taking Finasteried...My hair has stopped falling out.. But..the short hair that had stopped growing.. has not grown anymore. I was thinking since...the folicle has not died on those hairs...why aren't they starting to grow again?.. And...is there anything that can start them regrowing?.. I'm sure others have had this problem...and feel it might make for you donig a video on it.. Thanks!...for all your help!
How medications for hair loss work is like following:
Finesteride: to stop further loss
Minoxidil: to regrow, gain volume in your current hair
You can also try dermarolling but thats a big hassle so if you’re already on fin start applying topical min to those short hair you mentioned.
@@preetpancholi9135 Yes...I understand..Buty I came across someone on youtube...who shows...how he just used finasteride...and grew his hair back.. He has pictures from before he started..going through the months..and...then is parting the hair to show...it has indeed grown back.. Also..another guy who used minoxidile for 14 months...No growth back at all.., so..I suspect it may be different for different people..and am hoping the doctor has some answers...I did try minoxidil...but ...kept losing hair...so quit before it went too far.. thanks for your reply...
Question, I love your approach on 1mg/3x a week. However, what would you normally suggest when a patient is getting side effects even on that dosage? Do you lower the dosage on that method too?
i dont think you can have side effect with 3 mg a week the probability of getting them is less than 1%
@@sarahbe2271 False! I had them, and I'm on 3mg a week. I still take it since the results are amazing, but trying to figure out dosage. Finasteride builds up in the system over time, and eventually you'll reach a DHT inhibition cap of 68-70% over time.
@@fatalradius I heard that some keep taking for longer time and eventually the side effect is gone, its worth a try since the body might adapt to it, i would say maybe six months.after 6 months, if the side effect still there, then maybe u want to stop it or stay on it longer, up to you
It doesn't matter, when you get side effects in which everyone will they do NOT go away and never will. There is no cure for this when you have used finasteride.

Is it important to check liver functioning test during finasteride?

The lover is your least concern when you have all this to deal with.
finasteride half life is 8 hours in plasma and 3 weeks in tissue...but the important thing is to lower DHT in tissue not plasma...right? so could 0.25mg or 0.50mg two or three times a week also be considered?
That's a great question. Did you find any answers?
@@christos8225 Yes, low doses (0.25/0.5mg) 3-4x a week will also work as it will build up the same (but slower, and less total DHT reduction), but it's maybe/probably not ideal for aggressive hair loss.

How do you know if you need to switch to Dutasteride?
Every Finasteride trial shows maximum effects after 2 years. People will usually see most of the effects within the first year. So compare your before/after progress after 1-2 years and see if it's working for you by then.
your hair might be gone waiting 1-2 years; I know of some people that take fin 6 times a week and dut once since it has such a long half life, that might be a way to ease into it if you see zero progress within 6 months or so on fin only
@@PavelowB99 I'm on fin for 7 1/2 months and not sure if it's getting better or worse
@@predatoryzzx how it is now
@@predatoryzzxShould have taken progress pics
Yeah but generally speaking dosage is prescribed 1mg every day
Talk about fin/dut and the increase of TESTOSTERONE, and if this T can cause hariloss!! I'm taking this drugs since 2020, doubled my T and hari still falling and thinning
Serum testosterone levels do not directly affect the scalp. It is the converted testosterone to DHT that affects the scalp hairs. Finasteride partially blocks that conversion. Because of that blocking testosterone gets higher in the system, usually along with estrogen. But that is serum testosterone. Not even free...could be bound to SHBG.

Hi, got a question.. so I've been on finasteride 1mg 3x per week for the past 2 or so months but still feel like hair loss is worst now then before treatment, still shedding alot of hair.. my question is do I need to take more per week or continue with the 3x per week for a few more months.
Thanks
if you have accelerated shedding of hair, thats a sign that fin is working because it pushes out the hair for new hairs to come out from the medication , so chill and dont worry
What's your condition now? Still on finastride?
@Rehan_____ not taking anything now other then vitamin minerals.. I found that when I was taking fin I wasn't really seeing any improvements, my hairloss wasn't that bad to begin with anyway.. just slow loss over time. I recently had a hair transplant done to cover the receded area in the front.. the doc said that my hairloss wasn't that bad.. and being at 36 my hairloss has likely slowed right down, then again everybody's different.. but nature of hairloss will likely be more aggressive for someone who is younger compared to someone who is older.

You don't start in the first place
Have been prescribed finasteride 5mg on daily basis. On asking been told that it's 1mg for men and 5mg for women. Can you pls throw some light on this
From India?
Is 3 days a week recommended for all men (vs daily)? I had heard that since I lift weights regularly, mountain bike etc. that I need to take it daily to be effective against the increase in testosterone caused by the workouts. I'd happily take it just 3 days a week if that would be as effective. Please advise.
0.5 mg daily is effectively the same weekly dosage
Not how it works finasteride blocks the enzyme. The amount of test you have doesn’t matter as you have a certain amount of enzymes.
Any idea if psychedelics such as LSD might cause something out of the ordinary for someone using finasteride and minoxidil on a regular basis?
Has anyone heard anything about such implications or something similar?

Can anyone tell me how long do i have to take finestaride to maintain my hair
it keeps working better until 1 year then stays the same if you keep taking it for life, or else it will keep falling out
So taking 1mg daily is overkill? Im 36 and just started seeing thinning on the top in jan.. would 1mg every other do for me?

How long have you been taking it? You shouldn’t expect to see any improvement before 6 months.
@@direfranchement hello thanks for your reply. I have been taking finasteride since November. My hair is very dense and I have more follicles than most people, I am losing around 170 hairs per day and this is the same number before starting finasteride. So I am not sure if I am losing hair due to male pattern baldness or it is just my normal shedding at 170 hairs. The reason I started finasteride was for prevention since my father has lost a fair amount of hair. What I find confusing is wether the hairs that I am losing are from mpb or just normal hair fall and I am not sure how will I know
@@xxbeastxx9671 There is a video on this channel discussing why taking the finasteride 3x/week is effective. Are you also using minoxidil? They work better together.
If we go from 1mg 3 times a week to 1mg daily, would that result in saving more hair? Would it have a far greater effect? Even tho 3mg a week is working, will 7mg a week just result in just better results?
I would like to know this too.

I heard even taking minoxidil alone, even with continue use, will stop working after a while. Is this true?
it wont stop working. but the dht will continue to minituarize your hair follicles if its mpb that is causing your hairloss. so unless you combine it with a 5alpha reductase inhibitor minox wont save your hair in that case
@@iosifbosif7569 OK thanks.... Are u talking about fin?
Yes, I have clearly been using Minoxidil alone for 2 years and noticed a reversal in my front hairline. I have now added finasteride in hopes that it will give me the best results.
Is there an age limit for taking finasteride, or can people of any age take it?
im no doctor but i believe age doesn't matter im 63 still working been on it since 1997

Dr. what time is the best for taking fin.. morning or night
I've taken .5 mg fin, foam min, ketoconazole, and dermaroll 1x week for 3 years. I've seen really nice results. My temples and front hairline have thickened up. My crown is better but I still have a very small bald spot. I might've waited too long, not sure..
I've had very minor sexual side effects... I still can get an erection, morning wood etc. I'm just not all horned up anymore. Sex is hardly on my mind...
The lack of sex interest could be related to anything, age, diet, exercise, do you have enough vitamins, or could be the medicine
Do you watch porn? That kills sex drive
@@Northdallasguy00 Regarding the lower sex drive I tried to think of every reason besides Fin. Eventually I bit the bullet and quit Fin for over a month, libido rose up, better sustainable erection quality, and it just felt more enjoyable. Since I'm at a point of hardly having any hair to lose I tested getting off of Fin and going back about 3 times and each time I had experienced a similar result.
Oh and I tried quite a few supplements, and I am a very fit and active person, yada yada.. none of it seemed to have helped as much as simply getting off of Fin.
Funnily enough I smoked some of the cheapest weed on my birthday recently and that actually made my libido go very high for a few hours even while on Fin, lol. Other than that I don't smoke and very rarely do weed.
Hey could you please tell me one thing?
Is is necessary to take liver function test during finsateride?
@@balerionblck If you're worried about your liver take TUDCA. That will keep your liver flush for sure. My liver is fine according to my blood labs. I don't drink alcohol though...

You're nuts of you use this
So it's not necessary to take it everyday?
No it won't have any noticable effect if you take it more than 3x a week. It only says so on the leaflet that comes with the tablets because that's how it was tested on men before the drug was approved.
It's not. They had similar video, which convinced me to start and I'm perfectly fine. Even if you miss your dose it isn't the problem
Can you take Finasteride once a week?
too low. At least 3x1mg/week
so is 1mg/day not a good idea?
wouldnt say its bad, but 5 times a week is plenty.

Any updates
I've been taking 1mg of fin daily (few months of 1mg 3 days per week based on your recommendation) and lately I've been seeing an acceleration of hair loss. I'm mostly dealing with thinning hair and don't really see any patches. I started getting worried because I noticed my crown thinning a bit which I've never had before. But I mean multiple strands of hair come out in my hands and comb when brushing. What could I be doing wrong? Could fin just not be working for me?
Any update?
I believe shedding phase is is common for oral finasteride

@@chopstix906 I'm on oral fin 2+ years and topical min (foam, once daily) for 5 years and I also believe my hair was slightly better at finasteride baseline than now. I'd like to give Dut a last ditch effort try, but at the same time I'm worried because fin already impacts my libido and erection quality to a certain degree so I can't imagine what it'd be like on Dut.
I've seen another user on reddit tressless that had good success switching to Dut but he also suffered libido/ED problems but since he got on TRT he says he's fine now. So yah, it seems a little far fetched for me to have to get on TRT to off set any libido issues caused by Fin/Dut.
edit: it seems like I'm always shedding, it never ends. I'm a diffuse thinner tho, so the hair just comes back thinner and thinner.
@@chopstix906 Are hair continously goes through hair shedding cycles to grow newer stronger hair. If it's been two years, and you're still thinning I'd switch to something different.

Not at all. Anything more than 1mg is a waste. For one application. You should split it into 4 and take it every other day. But if it's working for you keep doing it
@@FPL_Habesha
How is that a waste ? Men with BPH takes 5 mg daily.
Maybe you are under the influence of the cosmetics industry, which sells 1 mg finasteride pills at exorbitant prices.
I split them in three pieces by the way.
Question to the public: i have been taking 1 mg every day for about 3 - 4 years now. I for sure notice decreases in libido and some ED. My hair has not gotten any worse in that time , and possibly has gotten better. But i personally feel it can cause a bit of depression considering you have little drive to seek out a partner then if you do you have the paranoia of not everything working when the time comes.
Has anyone else experienced the same feelings? I dont necessarily want to stop taking it because im single and would like to keep my hair but the double edge sword to this is really a problem. Wondering if i should take a few months off and or change my dosing/schedule.
Please, tell us more about youself.
How old are you?
Also, can you do hormnal test, to see your results? If you have high or low testosterone levels.
you are taking way too much bro, one milligram a day is not necessary some people can even manage two milligrams a week or three milligrams a week which is the dosing that the doctors on the hair loss show suggest so you are basically adding 4 milligrams of unnecessary dose Every week.
