Back on finasteride 1mg after taking smaller dose

[shulk]

tell me, how is ur .08 dosage going lmaoo i bet you're not even maintaining.

Yes, lmaoo. Look at the date when i started finasteride, asking things about maintaining... Makes me wonder if all of your 1,000+ posts are of that quality.

With the studies done on finasteride a small dose being effective seems plausible. You are free to crush that idea, but all i get is, i think, i believe. What am i supposed to do with that?


Anyhow, i prodded around on a few Japanese forums where supposedly the dose starts at 0.2mg and can be upped to 1mg. I was hoping to find some stories of people on 0.2mg. All / most of the members where right away on the full 1mg though. Supposedly they where jealous of their western counterpart who where getting 1mg. Most Online pharmacies also seem to recommend the full 1mg straight away. Due sides and fear (they even mention propeciahelp.com ), they just ?recently? started trying to experiment with lower dosages and referring to their own studies. As with this forum, it of course does not represent the whole userbase of finasteride.

I learned.... Nothing :woot:

Interesting. I've always wondered about the Japanese perspective on finasteride with the standard dose being 0.2mg over there. Let us know if you find anything else on that end.

Your suggestion that I come here to spread information about finasteride side effects to justify in my mind why I don't take it as well sense of approval is wrong and I don't know why you've assumed that. That is not why I do it, I do it because people ought to know both sides. And I was joking about polar bear avatar obviously.

Hey Vincent, I was gonna comment on another one of your posts but I can't seem to find it again so I'll comment here. Sorry to hear about you developing tinnitus and the tough break with your band. You'd be surprised how often similar situations happen. My friend's band was about to sign a major deal with a label in NYC and literally 1 day before, two members quit the band. Bad breaks like that unfortunately happen all the time.

Desmond's also doing topical finasteride? What he claimed it did for his patients in another thread was interesting

Hey guys, I was thinking about starting finasteride. Do you think its best to start at a lower dose of .5mg. I am a diffuse thinner.

.5mg is not even considered a low dosage. Try 0.25 IMO

could you link me to that other thread, im on month 2 of topical finasteride and no results yet.

Is the reason finasteride inhibits neurosteroids because it inhibits the 5 ar 3 enzyme and the 5 ar 2 or is it for other reasons no one knows yet? I dont think they ever intended to really change 5 ar 3 so they just accidentally changed that

Shulk is there some way to contact you? I'm about to re start finasteride and do a micro dosing trial as well. I figure the more information, results shared and other people's experience the better.
I understand the convenience of taking taking a pill over topical solution, however has anyone considered taking micro fun dosages coupled with low strength topical solutions of ru58841 + growth stimulant?

FYI https://www.*********talk.com/threads/23599-Desmond-Update-us-on-your-topical-finasteride-experiment

How do you make your topical finasteride or where did you get it? And by no results, do you mean no noticeable regrowth? Or not even thickening/reduced shedding? If it works at all, you should see reduced shedding fairly quickly.

Please update us about your progress! Maybe we should open another thread for those looking into topical finasteride.
