So I am using fin everyday .25 mg. Mild side effects here and there. Some days are worse than others tbh. I have tried to add minoxidil to my regime once per day. Hoping to hear from more of you about any success with low dosages. Hopefully my hair gets thicker. That would be the ideal thing for me.

that’s great to hear. I’m trying to find people who have had success without HT. I’m glad it’s working for him though. So I’m a diffuse thinner, you can see what my hair loss is like in one of my first posts. I’m hoping since I still do have hair on my scalp, I’m not really looking for regrowth. I’m just hoping I can maintain and get this hair to be thicker.

I was wondering if anyone in this community has had successful results using a lower dosage of finasteride. I’m currently taking .25 mg of fin everyday. I haven’t noticed a big difference it’s been two months though. Anyone out there with success? Any dosage that is under 1 mg a day.

So are your erections back to normal since stopping, you said your sides went away fast after stopping the drug ?

This is honestly a brilliant idea, I think if sides continue I’ll slowly get off the drug. Wait for all the sides to go away and go back to normal. I’ll have to give this method a go. Just hoping that if I continue the drug maybe the sides will go away as my body gets used to it.

Yeah I think I’ll start doing every other day and see what happens. I got it off Roman, I’m not under any doctor supervision.

Can you give me the compounds you are experimenting with to reduce scalp DHT?

Any improvements with the sides after being off it ? I doubt they are permanent but I think it takes time for your levels to go back to normal, while on it you saw no improvements with erections right?

When you say you quit cold turkey. Is it because you need to ease off the drug or you wanted to wait longer to see if continuance of the drug would stop side effects? Have you heard of anyone with luck with this method? I’m only taking .25mg every day right now. I assume you were on 1 mg a day?

Awesome to hear that, how long were you on the drug and what was your dosage? Any reason you hopped off? I’m about to hit 2 months, don’t see an improvement in erections yet. Its better on some days then others. I can understand the sperm volume part but weaker erections suck. Also how much better do you feel since being off it, almost at 100?, I highly doubt the sides are permanent. I’m just hoping my sides go away with continuance of the drug.

Hey, I’m taking .25 mg every day. I’ve also had some mild sides. My erections are weaker, I feel like I don’t get fully hard. I don’t get morning wood anymore since starting the drug. My sleep volume is also lower, some days are better then others for my erections. Have you seen any improvement ? I’m 2 months in and I don’t want to quit. Do you have any sources stating continuance of the drug will eliminate the sides ?

I’m 23 years old, I’m here to tell you about my hair loss journey. I started thinning around 18-19 years old. I hopped on minoxidil when I was 20 that worked for a while until it didn’t. Just recently I tried topical fin, but it became to hard to maintain a routine, and my thinning was diffuse so I had to apply the medication on my whole scalp, which became a pain. So I decided to start oral fin again, the first time I did, I had side side effects. This time I had a clear head and started at .25 mg every day. I started around February 17. Almost hitting the two month mark. The first two weeks were rough, with my body adjusting to the drug, I had brain fog bad. It was so hard to concentrate on anything, but that went away. Now I’m experiencing weaker erections, I get no morning wood since I stated the drug. It just doesn’t feel the same down there anymore. My sperm volume is much lower as well. Some days my erections are better than others. If I try to masterbate in the morning I can’t get fully hard, but mid day I actually get decent hard, but it still doesn’t feel the same as before taking the drug. Also if I drink I can not get hard no way. My question is, has anyone experienced these side effects and if they went away after continuance of the drug? Should I quit ? I really want to stay on it, but I’m afraid of permanent sides. Thanks for any and all advice.

Sounds good, I will give it a go. I am going to post some pictures as the time goes by. I am only hoping for some thicker hair.

Okay thanks for the response, what have you noticed improvement wise? If you have some pictures, do you mind posting down the line. I also made a post. I will be posting my results. I am applying .25 ml at night every day.

Hey, I just started using topical finasteride. I am using .25 mg per night. I was wondering if you had any luck ? Did the side effects go away and have you started seeing results ? I will update with my results soon.

Hey, I was wondering how the process is going so far, have you started a higher dosage or frequency. Any results or sides ??

What will be the frequency you will be using to apply topical fin?

Hello everyone, I just received my minoxidilmax essengen-6 plus package in the mail. I also ordered pg free solvent. This allows me to dilute the topical fin, which originally comes in .05% fin(.5 mg of regular fin) I am applying .025% fin(.25 mg of regular fin) in my hair twice a week as of now. I will gradually increase my dosage and application frequency every two weeks. I will post results on this thread as time goes along. I am really interested to see if this works for me. Also has anyone had any significant results from using topical finasteride. I would really like to hear your story on this as well. We can go on this journey together.

I was trying to purchase from minoxidilmax. They want me to purchase a 3 month supply and that’s there minimum purchase or something like that. This to me seems quite odd, when you purchased the product where you required to purchase a 3 months supply as well?

@TommyLucchese thank you for the input. Can you tell me what your dosage is? I’m thinking of micro dosing to be on the safe side. Have you noticed any side effects. Also what was your reason for switching to topical from oral.

@johnto I understand now. I think I am going to give essengen-6 plus a go. Is this the product you are using? I am still doing research the website states to apply twice a day. Worried about side effects so I might see if I can micro-dose. I’m looking forward to hearing back from you about your results. I wish you the best of luck.

@johnto thank you for the input. I am wondering which one of their products you bought? Also why are you only applying twice a week. Do you know if this effective in blocking dht?

@Richie888 if you find anything important. Let me know. Thanks

@TorontoMan@Richie888 so I am on the website what dosage would be best to buy and how often should I apply it ?

Have you guys had any experience using it? If so any significant results ?
