Some Questions About Ru (effectiveness, Safety Etc)

[fixthis]

So I've been on 0.5mg finasteride for nearly 7 months and my hair's taken a turn for the worse in these past few months. In these past few months I run my hand through my hair 3 times and I get 15 hairs, a year back it would just be 7-8. My question is those of you that take RU, has it been effective, where do you get it from (premade or do you make it yourself)? Lastly what about the side effects, is it safer than finasteride? I've already got sides on finasteride at half the dose but I manage just about.

-I'v ordered mine from kane and it seems it's working, but I think that I'm gonna order it from alibaba next time. I' mixing it myself.
-Counting hairs is the biggest cope.

What do you mean by cope? I mean the more you find consistently the worse right? Especially since my hairline is receding

People who doesn't have male pattern baldness are also shedding constantly, only difference is that hair fucked up by DHT grows back thinner. Mirror and water are the best judge.

Yeah I understand that some people shed more than others. The thing with me his I get thin strands of hair which means they're miniaturising.

btw how much does your RU cost and how long will a single supply last you?

*You can find the price on their site (Anagenics/Kane).Shipping costs about 30$ which probably depends on the place where you live. I think that they are sending it from England. Xipharm from alibaba is something like 50% cheaper.

*It all depends on dose which can vary from 50mg to 100mg per day.

I live in the UK so hopefully it is cheaper. I use rogaine (minoxidil) which costs £45 for a three month supply so if it's near that range I should be fine.

I got mine from "Chemyo" 5g cost me 89$us, 24.99$ of that was for shipping. I'm using it at a really low %. I mix it with minoxidil. If you mix half the ru powder
(2.5g) with 60ml of a carrier its ruffly 4.5% strength and would last 120 days.

Yeah sounds good. Have you had any success with it?

Yes I think so, but It could be all from minoxidil though. Its only been 50 days or so. I haven't had any sides.

What norwood are you?

If you don't mind me asking why such a low dose of finasteride? How bad are your sides exactly? Bumping up to 1mg should help suppress some more DHT

No, finasteride is measured to have a flat response curve above ~0.1 mg/day, for DHT suppression in the blood and in the scalp.

Yeah i've seen the graph for that, the only thing is when I was on 1mg I was less sensitive down there. The only other personal account I have is from my brother who's been on 1mg for over 7 months with no sides, he's stopped losing hair and his crown is pretty strong. He gets compliments on his hair so the average joe can't tell he was balding to begin with. I guess some people are just luckier with certain medications. Guess I'll have to look into RU a bit more.

1) It's multiple graphs from multiple studies .

2) The flat response curve refers to DHT levels in the blood and the scalp. Other variables might have a totally different response, so you don't necessarily expect a flat response curve for side effects.
