you're using a really low dosage, i also think it is upregulating your dht because with .25 a day u dont get full 24h coverage

i thought it would take days or weeks for your body to get back at normal dht levels when suppressed by finasteride. Not like after intake 12 hours suppressing and the other 12 hours normal dht levels.. i thought i would take more time for your body.

Im not all negative because i see a lot of thin hair long hair falling too.. im just hoping that my body is still adjusting

Before finasteride i had to shave 2 times a day.. i dont have beard, only a mustache and chin hair. Now my facial hair is much less fast growing.. face acne is in control. Only the thing whats happening on my scalp.. red scalp, bumps.. not itchy if i wash my hair every day. But ive less bumps on my head than 2 weeks ago.

Bg story: Im partly asian, no beard growth and no t0o less body hair. I thought i dont have a lot of dht so a low dose would help me enough.

Interesting point you make.

What are the coverage hours per dosage of 0.25mg and 0.5mg and 1mg ?

It doesn't matter how much DHT it reduces because you'll never figure it out.

It's about 80% as effective as 1mg in maintaining hair.

0,25 mg finasteride/day is not enough for intrafollicular DHT supression. Minimum dosage should be 1 mg/day. I use 5 mg/day with excellent results.

Yes best dosage to cover all bases (i.e. all men with varying levels of DHT and AR sensitivity), but as far actual percentage of DHT suppression it's pretty much flat from 0.5mg/day upwards.
