I experience this and other positive sides (increased hair quality/volume, clear skin, more energy) for about a week or so of regular use. Then it levels off and i start to experience negative sides (tired, weak hair, dry skin). Ive been off and on finasteride since i was 21 (now 25). Everytime i start...

Andrea, How long have you been on dutasteride? I noticed some very positive things for my skin when i initially started dutasteride, but then things went to normal. Just curious if you are having a sustained effect.

I have experienced the increased libido in the first few weeks of taking finasteride. I have more energy, better mood, i wake up in the morning refreshed. Then a fter just a weeks, I experience the opposite sides. I get extremely tired and i fall asleep any chance I get. I have been going on and off...

I was using Dutasteride for a bit last spring. I took .5 mg generic for about 3-4 months. Initially I noticed solid thickening all over and improved hair quality. The reason for my post, however, is to inquire about the effects on my skin. Almost immediately after starting treatment, I...

I had the same skin condition fluctuations as you did. On finasteride, my skin looked much clearer, felt cleaner. This only lasted a few days however. On dutasteride the effects were similar to what you described. Does anybody know what the cause of this might be? I would like to permanently have my skin...

Just wondering what time of day people are taking their finasteride dose. Finasteride really leaves me tired and sleepy. I feel that I can sleep all day when taking it. Im 100% sure finasteride is the reason for the lack of energy. I stopped taking it for months and then started up again and pretty soon (1...

Cheapest Place to buy rogaine foam Where is the cheapest place to buy Rogaine Foam?

I noticed the adverse effects of minoxidil on my skin too. The weird thing is that whenever I booze it up hard on a given weekend, my face is glowing the next day. Really, this has happened on more than one occasion where I drink heavily (liqour and beer) for a night or two in a row and the next...

...is it gone forever? what if i restart? ive been of minoxidil for months at least half a year. and finasteride, i stopped for a bit not more than 2-3months and got on dutasteride. now im wondering what i should do since things ae getting worse quickly.

Felk, I think I might give it a shot, since its only 10 dollars for a mnth.

i also want to know if minoxidil foam will have less side effects, specifically water rention in the face. i would like to get back on it...hopefully the foam will take care of all issues. keep me updated anybody that tries it...

thanks. the reason im concerned is that i quit finasteride abruptly and things have gotten worse overall with dutasteride. how long before you coudl make a judgement on its efficacy?

i switched abruptly from finasteride to dutasteride. ive been on dutasteride for 5 months now, and front has gotten worse. would taking both be of any benefit? or does taking dutasteride reduce the need for finasteride altogether since it does what does?

ive been off minoxidil for about year. can anyone tell me what i can expect with regards to a shed..if i restart. im thinking ozbrew. i used for three months and was seeing pretty good results, but i had to quit and it got bad from there...i also take 1/2 mg dutasteride EOD.
