So, I do not have a full understanding of half lives or whatever with medication, but what I have heard fins in 8 hours. My question is if you take finasteride at 8am and work out at midnight, while masturbating, with a hat on will there be any substantial loss? crazy question or theory, but will finasteride still prevent the dht if all those activities are done daily after that 8 hours, how dumb do i sound and if you want to poke fun, idc, you get what you give.

hey man, be easy on yourself. Seldom are questions dumb when it comes to poorly understood drugs. and yes, in my opinion, the effects of finasteride are poorly understood. Half life just means that after a given amount of time, the serum levels of the medication are half of what they were when it initially entered the blood stream. First off, the masterbation theory is pure bro science. It has no real stock. Secondly, hats do absolutely nothing, unless you're wearing it consistently in a fashion that is adding traction to your hair follicles. Working out as well.. when it comes to hair loss, it does very little imo.

If you're taking the full dose of 1mg there's definitely still enough in your system at midnight to prevent dht. Even with smaller doses it should be fine. Higher T levels from working out don't necessarily lead to higher levels of DHT. In fact, it could do just the opposite. If your T levels are low your body will convert more of it to the stronger DHT to compensate. Working out and masturbating in moderation isn't going to hurt your hair. However, if you are in the gym all day using gear, and masturbating all night, you will be bald in no time. Wearing a hat could potentially cause shedding from inflammation, but not miniaturization, which is the real problem. Bottom line: don't worry about timing.

since ihave been working out lately on finasteride, my temples become itchy and irritated, could this be some kind of symptom or just anxiety?
