Yeah decided I’m going all in one Dutasteride.
It’s my last shot I think bar a transplant.
Been considering on/off for months and doing research watching videos etc.
Such as:
I spoke to Dr Ross about my current hair situation vs 2 years ago. And discussed the medication I’m currently on and thinks
I should go to Dutasteride.
Also booked a consultation with another Hair Transplant surgeon on my hair loss. Who also said he would suggest giving Oral Dutasteride a go.
For those that been in this thread for a while, I switched from topical min to oral min in late 2022.
Around that time the frontal region shed though it was temporary but never came back.
Had also been on Finasteride alongside before switching to oral min.
Held on for 2 years no regrowth even after bumping OM to 5mg…Wasted time really I should’ve thrown the towel in on Fin.
Don’t get me wrong Fin is definitely effective and will stabilise at the very least for most.
And definitely slowed my hairloss progression as without it I would be completely cooked.
However some of us need Dut it seems, the Dr I spoke to yesterday said he considers my hairloss aggressive.
So got 0.5mg Dut on the way to take alongside 2.5mg oral min
Wish me luck praying for no sides and some thickening.
Dreading the potential shed but as long as my hair comes back thicker I’ll be happy, not expecting miracles.
