Hey guys. It's been four months since I started Finasteride and everything's back to normal. Hair fall has almost stopped and hair has thickened over immensely.
By now we all know, lifting weights increases DHT which accelerates male pattern baldness. I was wondering if there are people here who have been lifting weights and are also on Finasteride. But I have also wondered how celebs who take Finasteride like Matthew Mcconaughey and Bradley Cooper build up so much muscle without losing the hair.
My question to the people lifting weights and taking Finasteride is - Is Finasteride preventing your hair from falling out despite lifting a lot?

AFAIK lifting weights will increase testosterone, which would be converted to DHT. But since you take finasteride it won't.

Yeah but test is still an androgen, albeit much weaker when compared to DHT.

But I don't think the test boost from lifting is as big as people make it out to be. You'll be fine.

If anything the increased blood, and oxygen flow through out the body might even help with nourishing the follicles.

The stars earn money with their body. That means they will go length to keep looking great and "roleable". I believe they do quite some effort and have personal trainers, nutrition professionals and dermatologists who all help them to archive the goals they have with their body and they spend at least 2 hours a day taking care of it... A time I personally do not have. I just have time to brush teeth and shower and get a workout once or twice a week.

Time to hit the gym again.

Fred didn't even comment on this. Are you just bitter or something? It's easy to be a bully on a forum, isn't it? I'd imagine quite fun as well, to take out your frustration behind the dark curtain that is the internet. But, I'll ask you just once - stop coming on here and throwing around derogatory language. I don't know if you're aware of this, but nowadays words like "pussy" and phaggot" are generally just used by douche bags. I would love to see Rhonda Rhousey smash your face in after using the word "pussy" BRAH. haha

almost 500 posts within a month

but your a male feminist that drills himself with a dildo so im not even surprised. take your macho talk to bred the phaggot who regularly puts people down and forces them to become an insecure weakling like him. dont give me any of that "reality" nonsense. i know plenty of people that are bald and competitive natured and do exceptionally well in life. reading bred the phaggot's post is like drinking slow poison. read enough of that crap and you will doom yourself in life. there's no estimate to how many lives he might have destroyed on here alone. go fuk yourself

I've been on finasteride for 3.5 months and workout regularly. Pretty aggressive male pattern baldness.

Haven't noticed much difference in my hair or the gym.

I haven't noticed a difference.

DHT has almost no role in development of your muscles. 5-AR, and DHT is concentrated in almost every androgen dependent area part except skeletal muscle


testosterone is the active androgen in muscle, and activates protein synthesis for muscular development. Testosterone receptors are what concentrate the muscle.
